About Anabeth

Anabeth is a 6-month-old Yorkie mix weighing around 10 pounds. She’s a little dog with a soft brown and black coat and a personality to match: gentle, sweet, and a bit shy at first. Once she feels safe, Anabeth melts into a playful, happy puppy, especially when other dogs are around to show her it’s all okay. Potty training is coming along nicely for her, and she’ll thrive in a calm, patient home where someone can help her gain confidence. A resident dog would be a huge plus since Anabeth relaxes faster when she’s got another dog to lean on. Beneath her quiet start is a puppy eager to play and connect once she comes out of her shell. Born October 20th, Anabeth is a Libra—a natural at seeking harmony and friendship. Click apply to start the adoption process.
