(as of 10/8/25) This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Meet cute little Chenille! Weighing in at 9 pounds, we think this sweet smiley girl is about 10 months old and probably a Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix. She has been doing great in her active foster home the last couple of months, living with two adults, a toddler, and four other small dogs. Chenille is playful and energetic -- she loves her toys, chasing other pups, and riding in the car. She is a perfect little buddy to bring along for a ride! She's living in a suburban neighborhood right now and likes going for walks. Her neighborhood can be a little busy at times with cars and foot traffic, but she seems to be okay with that! She can be a bit vocal and will bark at passersby, but she's just curious and happy to say hi. She's very friendly and is a great little snuggle bug -- definitely a lovable lap dog! Chenille has been doing a good job at her house training and crate training so far, but will still need a little help to get her to the finish line. She had been surrendered by a previous owner who could no longer care for her. She does go outside to potty, but sometimes will go in the house because in her first home, she was used to having puppy pads in her kennel. Her foster has been working on this with her to get her into a different routine. We also think going to some puppy classes with her new family will be really helpful as she works on her training. After all, she's still a young pup and has lots to learn! It'll be a great opportunity to bond and start fresh with these new habits together. Have you fallen in love with Chenille's sweet smile?
