Little Rosie - Chihuahua and Dachshund Dog for Adoption in Yakima, Washington

Meet Little Rosie, a four year old Chihuahua/Doxie mix weighing 11 pounds.

Little Rosie is a gentle little sweetheart looking for a family where she can be loved and cherished. She came to us after being surrendered because her previous owner had too many animals and could no longer give her the attention she deserves.

Rosie may be short in stature, but she has a huge capacity for love! With her adorable long body and petite frame, she’s as charming as she is sweet. This gentle, demure girl loves being close to her people and will happily crawl right into your lap for some cozy snuggle time.

Rosie is a good girl with a loving nature and a calm, affectionate personality. She’s ready for a home where she can be someone’s special companion and enjoy all the love and attention she has been waiting for.

If you’re looking for a gentle lap dog with a sweet soul and plenty of love to give, Little Rosie may be the perfect match for you!

This pet is available for adoption on 7.31.26 at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.
