Meet Skittles! Just like her colorful name, Skittles is a sweet little puppy with a personality all her own. Her mama is a small breed dog weighing approximately 25 pounds, so Skittles is expected to remain on the smaller side as she grows.

Skittles is a friendly and social girl who is being fostered with both cats and dogs and gets along well with everyone. She loves following her foster family around the house, joining in on playtime, and being part of the action. While she doesn't pay much attention to the cats indoors, she does think it's great fun to chase them around the yard when they're outside together!

When someone arrives at the door, Skittles is quick to let everyone know with a bark. Compared to her siblings, Skittles is a little more reserved and can be somewhat cautious in new situations. Because of this, she would thrive in a home with another friendly, confident dog who can help show her the ropes and continue building her confidence. She may wiggle and squirm when being picked up, but underneath it all is a loving puppy who simply needs guidance, patience, and positive experiences as she grows.

Like all puppies, Skittles is a blank slate with endless potential. She is looking for a forever family that is ready to invest the time, energy, and commitment needed to help her learn, grow, and become the wonderful adult dog she is meant to be. In return, you'll gain a loyal companion who will be by your side through all of life's adventures.
