Daisy - Miniature Schnauzer and Miniature Poodle Dog for Adoption in Cedar Rapids, Iowa

2 CUTE 2 SEPARATE

Meet Daisy & Dolly — a little sister duo who are making it VERY hard for everyone around them to imagine them living life apart.

Estimated to be around 3 years old, Daisy (purple) and Dolly (pink) are small, nonshedding mixed breeds. Daisy weighs about 12 lbs and Dolly is about 15 lbs. Are they Mini Schnauzer/Poodle mixes? Maybe! A little Shih Tzu? Yorkie? Honestly... your guess is as good as ours! Whatever their ingredients, the end result is two absolutely adorable little companion dogs.

And here’s the thing about these girls: their foster mom says they are THE EASIEST fosters she has ever had.

Yep. Two dogs. And somehow... easier than one typical dog.

Daisy and Dolly are:
House-trained
Kennel-trained
Great on a leash
Friendly with people of all ages
Great with kids
Good with other dogs
Low-energy and easygoing
Happy to play, but equally happy to relax
Professional-level cuddlers

They’re the kind of dogs who just fit into your life. They don’t need constant entertainment or a marathon every day. They’re happy to hang out with you, take a little walk, have some cuddle time, and settle in for a cozy evening.

There are no cats in their foster home, so they haven't been officially cat-tested. However, based on their calm, easygoing demeanor, we think they would likely do just fine living with cats.

They do best with other dogs who are similarly chill — because these girls are looking for a peaceful, easygoing household where they can enjoy the good life together.

And yes... we know. Sometimes people are looking for ONE dog.

But look at these two.

They already have their best friend. They’re comfortable together. They keep each other company. And their foster mom insists they are somehow LESS work as a pair than many dogs are individually.

So we're hoping someone will look at Daisy and Dolly and think:

“Why choose one when I can have both?”

2 CUTE 2 SEPARATE.

Everyone who has gotten to know these girls is rooting for them to stay together, so priority will be given to an adopter who wants to make them a permanent pair.

Two little dogs. One easygoing duo. Double the cuddles. And one very happy family.
