About Jalapeño
Meet Jalapeño! 🌶️🐾 Jalapeño is a 9-pound male Yorkshire Terrier with a vibrant personality. As a self-appointed "stranger danger" specialist, he takes a cautious approach to new people, preferring to observe from a comfortable distance. Trust takes time for him; a few treats can break the ice, but don’t expect immediate friendship. Once he feels secure, Jalapeño reveals his affectionate side. After a little time to settle in, he’ll want to be carried around like a baby and will snuggle up next to you, becoming your loyal little shadow. He absolutely loves other dogs and warms up to them much quicker than humans. Jalapeño is looking for a patient home that understands the importance of building trust gradually. If you’re willing to let him take his time, you’ll find a devoted companion in him. Jalapeño isn’t just any dog; he’s worth the wait. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
