Mindy - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption

Mindy (aka "Miss Mindy")

Meet Mindy, a curious, expressive, and gentle six-year-old Chihuahua who weighs ten pounds! She's low energy and a bit of both people-oriented and independent. Her best feature is how expressive she is. She has uneven ears that make an "L" shape, plus little eyebrows that make it look like she has a lot to say!

Mindy adapts quickly. Within hours of arriving in NYC, she handled a car ride, a bath, and meeting four other dogs and took it all in stride. She's great with other dogs of any size, relaxed around guests, and warms up to new people at her own pace. She's potty trained outside or on pads, an excellent walker on a leash, and a pro on stairs. She settles quickly when left alone, with no barking or crying.

Her days are cozy: burrowing under the covers, scenic walks, and lounging on the couch keeping you company. She loves treats, wet food, and dried banana chips. She has even taken the bus and train into the city to spend the day at work with her foster!

Mindy would do best in a calm home with adults or older kids, with a steady routine. She's a great apartment dog and a wonderful match for a single person looking for a mellow companion.

**What her foster says about her:**
"She loves to cuddle and sleep next to you and will make herself the perfect blanket nest by burrowing down under the covers. Mindy isn't high maintenance, so a casual lifestyle would be perfect for her and her person."
