About Fable

Meet Fable! This little lady may be small, but her personality is larger than life. Right from the start, she’s shown herself to be feisty, vocal, and fiercely independent. Fable loves to chat and play, treating her foster family’s four larger dogs like they're her playmates. You’d be surprised how she holds her own! When she’s not busy with her toys or pals, you might find her snuggled up in her foster mom's slippers or napping in the clothes basket in the closet. She's a little cheeky, but her sweet nature shines through with her adorable kisses. With her sharp mind, Fable will need both physical activities and mental challenges to keep her engaged. She gets along well with children, dogs, and even cats. Although she’s still mastering her house training, she’ll happily use a puppy pad when necessary. Crate training is a work in progress—Fable isn’t a fan of being confined, but she's improving slowly. Fable will make a fantastic addition to any family that can appreciate her spirited and loving nature. Ready to meet your new companion? Click apply to start the adoption process!
