Meet Little Lonna! Lonna is a sweet, snuggly, Chihuahua mix, possibly with a little Beagle thrown in, judging by her extreme passion for food and snacks! This little lady is the perfect combination of calm companion and silly personality. She's mostly quiet, wonderfully affectionate, and happiest just being near her people. She loves to follow you around, sneak in an occasional kiss, and curl up with her head resting on your chest. Once you've earned her trust, you've got yourself a loyal little shadow. She'll even accompany you on midnight bathroom trips, just to make sure you never have to go anywhere alone. <br/><br/>And did we mention she LOVES food? Somewhere along the way, Lonna learned the most adorable trick. She sits up on her hind legs, crosses her little front paws, and politely begs for snacks. It's nearly impossible to resist! Although sometimes you'll have to, because Lonna is working on shedding a few extra pounds. Don't let her age or laid-back personality fool you. There's still a playful young dog in there! She's started wrestling and playing chase with her temporary dog siblings. Toys aren't really her thing, but a good game with another dog? Absolutely. Life with Lonna In her foster home, Lonna shares her space with two resident dogs and two cats. She's really enjoying the company of her temporary dog siblings and seems to gain confidence from having them around. She's even started snuggling up to them and initiating a little play! While she hasn't quite made friends with the resident cats, they coexist peacefully as long as everyone respects each other's space. We think she'd really enjoy a home with another friendly, easygoing dog. She's also a lovely walking buddy! She walks nicely on leash, loves to sniff and explore, and doesn't pull much. Some of Seattle's busier environments are still overwhelming, but with patience and positive experiences, she's gaining confidence. She's pleasantly mannered, and while she doesn't know many commands yet, her love of treats should make learning new tricks fun!<br/><br/> A few things to know Lonna is still working on house training. She does her business on walks but occasionally has accidents indoors, so her future family should be patient and committed to a consistent potty routine. She travels well in the car, especially in a secure crate where she feels safe. Because she can be nervous in unfamiliar situations, we think a calm, adult-only home would be her best fit. Lonna doesn't need constant entertainment or a busy household. Just a patient, loving family, a cozy place to sleep, daily walks, and maybe a furry friend to keep her company. If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate little best friend with a surprisingly silly side, Lonna might just be your girl.
