Betty - Chiweenie and Black Labrador Retriever Dog for Adoption

Meet Betty! This 3 year old, 25lb little ween (Chiweenie/Labweenie-ish) is looking for her forever family! She was found on the streets in Houston and is now in the Big Apple ready for whatever the future holds....

She would be great in a multi dog home.

Her foster mom says:

Meet Betty — 25 pounds of pure lap dog energy with a heart to match. This loving, gentle 3-year-old leads with her heart, even when she's not quite sure what's coming next: the moment you meet her, her tail is already wagging. She's shy at first with anyone besides her person, but she warms up quickly, and once she's settled in, she's all in — she loves tug of war, chewing bones and twists, and being showered with pets and compliments at every opportunity. She's leash and crate trained, isn't a barker, and adjusted to her foster home in just a couple of hours flat, acing her first bath and claiming the couch (and your chest, specifically, as the best nap spot) almost immediately.

Betty has a clear love language: belly rubs and neck scratches, with a polite paw-tap to let you know exactly when to keep going. She's perfectly content entertaining herself on the floor, the couch, or in another room while you're busy — though the sound of a cabinet, the fridge, or a crinkling wrapper will have her materializing behind you with devastating puppy-dog eyes in seconds. She's not a fan of busy NYC streets, so she'd thrive in a quieter neighborhood with room to roam, ideally alongside another dog for companionship. Betty is ready to give her whole heart to a calm, patient home willing to keep showing her that the world is safe and wonderful — and she'll give everything she's got right back.
