Esme - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Richmond, Virginia

At just 11 weeks old, Esme is an adorable mixed-breed baby with a happy personality, a social spirit, and just a tiny bit of a princess complex.

Esme is being raised in a busy, active foster home filled with puppies, older dogs, kids, and plenty of activity, and she absolutely loves it! She is a total social butterfly who LOVES other dogs—big, small, young, old... she's ready to be friends. Even her large-breed foster siblings are fair game for playtime!

When she's finished romping around with her canine crew, Esme switches gears and becomes an expert-level cuddler. And because every princess deserves her throne, Esme is a big fan of a soft, cozy bed where she can curl up and be appropriately adored.

At night, Esme sleeps in a pen with her siblings. Like any young puppy, she's still learning all the important things that come with growing up, so her forever family will need to be committed to continued potty training, crate training, leash skills, socialization, and puppy manners.

Most importantly, Esme has made it very clear that life is better with a best friend! Her forever home will need to have another playful, social dog who is ready to wrestle, romp, cuddle, and help show her the ropes.

Esme's forever-home wish-list: another playful pup, lots of love, patience for puppy training, plenty of snuggles...and a very comfy bed fit for a princess.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
