Hi, I'm Daphne — and yes, my hair always looks like this. It's called effortless charm, and I've fully leaned in. I'm a tiny girl with a big personality, a warm lap obsession, and a look that can only be described as "just rolled out of bed and somehow pulled it off." I am happiest when I'm on my people — literally on them. Lap sitting, bed cuddling, pressed up against you while you pretend to watch TV — I'm in. I love leash walks, I play well with other small dogs (once I've had a moment to assess the situation), and I will absolutely let the cats know where they stand. Respectfully. With my tiny bark. My Ideal Home A home with older kids is totally fine — I love the energy. Other small dogs are welcome once we've properly introduced ourselves. Cat households, though? Hard pass. I'm not rude about it, but I am honest. A Few Important Things to Know Crate trained, but vocal about it: I'll go in the crate, but I will register my feelings about it. I do best in a home where alone time is limited or where my crate is just a nap option, not a sentence. Tiny dog, tiny bladder: I'm fully house trained and use pee pads like a champ — but I need regular bathroom access. Fenced yard or a committed leash-walk routine is a must. Cat-free zone: I have made my position on cats very clear with a series of small, determined barks. Best to skip the drama and skip the cats. What I Bring to the Table I am, by all accounts, exactly what I look like: a sweet, scruffy little love bug who just wants to find her person. I'm young, healthy, up to date on vaccines, recently spayed, and ready to melt into your life.
