About Gretel

Gretel is a delightful puppy whose charming personality brings joy and energy to any home. At just two months old, she’s settling into her routine beautifully, enjoying her designated area and showing great progress with potty training. While she’s learning to go outside, she’s also familiar with wee-wee pads, making her transition smoother. This little one adores snuggling in laps, receiving pets, and getting belly rubs. She’s quick on the uptake with training, especially with the ‘no biting’ command. As she's small, a home without young children is ideal, as she can be playful and might chase feet. Gretel currently shares her space with older Chihuahua siblings and interacts wonderfully with them, showing she’s comfortable in a multi-dog setup. She promises to add love and laughter to the right family. Gretel is scheduled for her spay in December. Join her on this exciting journey by applying today!
