Bright-eyed, playful, and just the right amount of silly… Yuki is packing all that into a perfectly petite, adorable, wiggly body. She’s 7 months old, expected to be around 35–45 lbs full grown, and while her exact breed mix is a best guess (maybe a little pittie, lab, terrier magic in there), what’s not a guess is how stunning she is. All white with a single gray freckle on her ear, a soft gray nose, light greenish eyes, and those sweet pink undertones… she’s truly one of a kind. More than that, she’s affectionate, adaptable, and already showing off what a lovely companion she’s going to be. Go watch Yuki on YouTube because her personality shines even brighter in motion. Yuki has already proven she can roll with life’s changes. She started out in a high-rise apartment, unfazed by elevators and busy hallways, and is now thriving in a home with young kids, other dogs, and a backyard to enjoy. She’s confident, easygoing, and happiest wherever her people are. She’s also been respectful with a senior cat, showing a nice balance of curiosity and manners. She’s a smart girl who made quick progress with potty training and crate training, and her eagerness to learn really stands out. Give her a little consistency and routine, and she’s going to absolutely shine. She enjoys her toys (especially a good benebone), gets her zoomies in, and then happily crashes for a nap like the growing puppy she is. She walks nicely on leash, rides calmly in the car, and has that sweet, natural affection that makes her easy to love. And when it’s time to wind down? That’s where Yuki really melts you. She’s a professional snuggler, curling up close with both people and dogs, often flipping onto her back with her legs in the air and her tongue peeking out. If she’s extra cozy, you might even get a little snore. It’s those small, everyday moments with her that feel the most special. Yuki was born missing a hip socket, which gives her the cutest little hop and a bit of a sideways strut when she moves. It’s simply part of who she is and doesn’t slow her down much at all. She runs, plays, and keeps up with her friends with total joy. Staying active and strong helps support her, and she naturally does that just by being her playful self. She also has retinal dysplasia in both eyes, a congenital condition that affects how her eyes process light. She can see and lives a full, happy life, though she may appreciate a little help in low light or with depth perception here and there. Day to day, she navigates the world with confidence and curiosity. These things are just pieces of her story, not what defines her. Yuki is joyful, resilient, affectionate, and full of life. She’s still a puppy, which means she’ll thrive with a family ready to continue her training, provide structure, and help her grow into her best self. With a little guidance and a lot of love, she’s going to be an incredible companion. Ready to welcome this special girl into your life?
