Kismet is a sweet little Terrier/Chi mix who arrived at the rescue with her brother, Mojo. She may seem a little shy when you first meet her, but give this precious girl a little time — there's a wonderful personality waiting to shine through. Kismet is intelligent, curious, and quietly charming. She likes to take in her surroundings and figure things out before jumping right in. But there's something special about watching her when she's around another dog. With a canine companion nearby, Kismet's confidence grows, and her personality really begins to blossom!

Having another dog around seems to help her feel safe and comfortable, allowing her playful and curious side to come out. She would likely do wonderfully in a home with a friendly, compatible canine companion. Kismet is the kind of girl who may not immediately steal the spotlight, but once she feels secure, you'll discover just how special she is. She simply needs someone willing to give her the time and encouragement to show you who she really is.

If you're looking for a sweet, smart, curious little companion who blossoms with the friendship of another dog, Kismet may be the perfect addition to your family. Sometimes the sweetest surprises take a little time — and Kismet is one of them.
