About Gnocchi

Gnocchi is a delightful 2-year-old Skye Terrier weighing 22 lbs, who’s just coming into her own. She’s recently discovered the joys of lounging on the couch or bed and could enjoy that comfortable life all day long if you let her. Gnocchi is a little foodie at heart, often trailing her person around, hoping for treats and snacks. Initially shy, Gnocchi opens up to reveal her playful personality, always ready to bring a smile to your face. She would thrive in a calm home without small children since she’s still finding her confidence on a leash. A fenced-in yard is a must for her safety and comfort. Though Gnocchi has been housetrained in her foster home, she'll need some time to adjust to a new environment. She does well in a crate and isn't destructive when left outside of one. Plus, she gets along well with both cats and dogs. While prior experience with Skye Terriers isn’t a requirement, understanding the breed's unique traits will be beneficial. What are you waiting for?
