About Valentina

Valentina is a 5-year-old Jack Russell Terrier and Dachshund mix, weighing about 14 lbs. She has a heartwarming spirit despite a difficult past; Valentina wandered the streets with her puppies for an entire week before being rescued. Tragically, she lost most of her litter to accidents, and only one pup survived alongside her. This sweet, gentle girl is incredibly affectionate and well-behaved. She gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and thrives on being petted. Although Valentina shows signs of fear if someone makes a sudden move, her capacity for trust and love remains unbroken. She deserves a family that will provide her with the safety and affection she needs, allowing her to flourish in a loving home. Valentina has endured enough hurt; it’s her time to enjoy a joyful and secure life. If you believe you can give her the loving family she craves, connect with us today!
