Michelle is a sweet young pup with charming personality besides her petite body build. She’s stable, obedient and quiet by nature compared to average young pup her age; nevertheless, very cuddly when around familiar faces. It only took her a short while to overcome shyness when encountering strangers; however, she’ll become nervous and try to stay away from active young kids. Like any young pups, she’s very food motivated, playful and enjoys the company of other dogs. She’s loving by nature, responds to recall very well; she’s potty trained to go outside, also crate trained to sleep overnight; not a barker or chewer when inside the house. Michelle being young and playful, she will do best for family looking for a companion pet, or sibling to their existing family dog.

About Michelle’s rescue:
Michelle, only around 2-months-old, was found alone roaming in a hilling countryside, there’s no sight of the mother dog or siblings. With the busy traffic and predators around the area, this tiny puppy would have slim chance of survival if left alone in the wilderness. The rescuer decided to take Michelle home and settle her at foster family to prepare her for adoption.
