About Gretel

Sweet Gretel is an 11-month-old, 12-pound Chiweenie ready to steal your heart. With her black-and-tan tricolor coat and gentle nature, she may be a little shy at first, but once she trusts you, her loving personality shines through. Gretel was lovingly surrendered with her sister, Gretchen, and these two girls are a bonded pair that must be adopted together. They adore playing with their toys and each other, promising to bring double the sweetness into your home. Gretel is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. She’s already using the doggie door and keeps her kennel clean overnight. While she’s making progress with leash training, she may need some reassurance as she adjusts to her new environment. This precious girl will thrive in a loving family willing to help boost her confidence. In return, Gretel and her sister will fill your life with playful moments and unconditional love.
