Taffeta - Chihuahua and Maltese Dog for Adoption in New York, New York

Taffeta is the cutest little special-needs puppy looking for a very special adopter. She has some coordination challenges that are believed to come from a non-degenerative neurological condition known as caudal fossa, which means she moves through the world a little differently.

And honestly? Taffeta does not seem particularly bothered by that. She's happy, curious, and has already figured out some pretty remarkable ways to adapt to her quirks. She may be a little wobbly and a little weird, but she's also incredibly endearing and very much enjoying being a puppy.

Taffeta will need an adopter who understands that she may always do some things differently and is ready to support her as she grows. In return, they'll get a very special little dog with a huge personality and a pretty impressive determination to make things work her own way.
