About Mini aka Mia

Mini, also known as Mia, is a charming 4-year-old Yorkshire Terrier who truly embodies the spirit of companionship. She loves to be close to her humans, happily cuddling on laps or by your side. Fully house trained, Mia communicates her needs with bells, making it easier for her family. She settles well in a kennel at night and is gradually becoming more comfortable spending time in there during the day as well. Mia gets along well with other dogs in her foster home, but she appreciates time to warm up to them, so introductions should be thoughtful. While her behavior with cats is uncertain, a gradual introduction is recommended. This little lady has shown she can thrive around children of all ages, although it's essential to supervise young ones to ensure gentle handling. For her safety and comfort, a fenced yard is ideal, but she can also enjoy walks in a harness to protect her delicate trachea. Mia invites you to share your life with her as she becomes your loyal shadow. The adoption fee of $400 includes her spay/neuter, microchip, and up-to-date vaccinations.
