PetoftheWeek! Petof STRAWBERRY

If you’d like to meet Strawberry, call the shelter today!

Meet Strawberry! This petite and pretty 3.5-year-old Miniature Pinscher/Chihuahua mix is ready for her forever family. Strawberry has some special behavioral needs and will need a kind, quiet and patient owner who is willing to work with her. Strawberry does have a “flight risk” personality, meaning she has a tendency to take off if she’s feeling uncomfortable, whether she is indoors or outdoors. Her ideal home would be a quiet, adult only home. Strawberry can get along with other small dogs if they’re interested in simple cohabitation, but larger dogs scare her.
