About Winnie

Winnie-the-Pooh, or simply Winnie, is a delightful 3-year-old Chihuahua weighing 8 lbs. Settling into her foster home, she's found joy in snuggles and lap time. Being a little skittish, she’ll require a nurturing environment to help her feel at home. It's worth noting that her top jaw is slightly longer than her bottom, but it doesn't hinder her in any way. Winnie is not yet house trained and will benefit from a patient adopter willing to give her time to adjust. If you're curious about this unique and charming girl, feel free to reach out for more information. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
