About Twinkie

Twinkie is a lively 12-pound bundle of joy with a vibrant personality that demands attention. This tiny Chihuahua/Feist mix believes her place is right on your lap, soaking up love and affection like it’s her job. Always ready for cuddles and companionship, she thrives on being the center of attention. Twinkie enjoys playtime too, but she tends to be a little rough around the edges with her smaller playmates. For that reason, she would shine best with larger canine friends who can appreciate her spirited nature or as the solo dog in the household, allowing her to bask in all the love she craves. She’s spayed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, crate trained, and is known to be good with both dogs and cats. Twinkie is house trained and a professional lap warmer, fully prepared to steal your heart. If you’re looking for a spirited little companion who needs a warm lap and lots of love, Twinkie might just be the perfect match for you. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
