Peggy
Peggy / F / 5Y / 5lbs / Chihuahua / Fostered in Toronto
Looking for a gentle, low-maintenance companion who will melt your heart? Meet Peggy, a sweet and calm little soul with the most adorable "smol face mouse" expression that will win you over instantly.
Peggy is a cuddly, shy, and wonderfully calm dog who thrives on affection and quiet moments. She is a tripod (missing a hide leg) but this doesn't slow her down one bit. She's the perfect companion for someone seeking a relaxed, low-energy friend who's happiest curled up beside you.
- House-trained and crate-trained for overnight and up to 6 hours during the day
- Excellent leash manners (though she prefers shorter walks)
- Great with dogs and children - she's hasn't been cat tested but would likely be fine
- No guarding issues - she's as gentle as they come
- Low energy but still enjoys 3-4 short walks and a little playtime each day
Loves: Cuddles (her absolute favorite!), treats, and quiet companionship
Not a fan of: Water, stairs, and loud noises like fireworks
Peggy is already well-behaved and continues to work on fun tricks and recall training. She may have slight separation anxiety, but it's very manageable and responds well to training. When meeting new people, she's initially shy but warms up beautifully once she feels comfortable.
Peggy would thrive in a calm, low-energy household where she can be the center of attention. Her perfect family would:
- Love giving lots of cuddles and gentle affection
- Have a single-story home or minimal stairs
- Appreciate a quieter lifestyle
- Be patient with her initial shyness around new people
If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion who will be your shadow and snuggle buddy, Peggy might be your perfect match. She's ready to bring her gentle, sweet nature into a loving forever home where she can feel safe and cherished.
