Meet Mimi, a tiny ball of exuberance with adorable satellite ears that capture attention. This little girl has overcome quite a bit in her young life. Rescued from the shelter, she was severely matted and in need of dental work, leaving her with a few missing teeth. Not long after her rescue, she battled a dangerous case of kennel cough that led to pneumonia, requiring time in the hospital. But Mimi is a fighter—she has recovered beautifully and is blossoming into a healthier, happier pup each day. Don’t let her small size fool you. Mimi is a fierce protector, ready to guard her favorite humans as if she weighed a hundred pounds. Behind that spirited persona lies a sweet soul eager to curl up for cozy lap cuddles. Mimi thrives in a calm home environment, ideally with adults or older teenagers. She’s loyal, feisty, and affectionate once she feels safe. After everything she's endured, Mimi is ready for a fresh start and has so much love to offer to a forever family that is willing to give her a second chance. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
