A Little About Twinkle
Twinkle is a gentle, loving senior Chihuahua looking for a home where she can feel safe and cherished. She enjoys observing her surroundings, soaking up affection, and even doing a happy dance when she gets pets! She’s independent but would thrive in a home with another dog who can help her build confidence and adjust to a routine.
Her Personality & Needs

🐾 Best with Another Dog: A furry sibling would help her feel more secure.
🐾 Flight Risk: Nervous about new things, so a fenced yard is required for her safety.
🐾 No Shared Walls: Twinkle has a big bark for such a tiny pup!
