Meet Fern, a sweet and shy 2-year-old Chihuahua who’s ready to find her forever family. Fern’s early life wasn’t easy—she came from an unfortunate hoarding situation—but despite her past, she’s blossoming into a loving and playful companion who just needs a little time and patience to truly shine.
Fern is a bit on the nervous side at first, and she may take some time to warm up to new people and situations. But once she feels comfortable and safe, her true playful spirit comes alive! This little lady loves to run around, chase toys, and show off her adorable personality. Her high energy and love for play make her a perfect match for an active family or anyone who enjoys spending time with a spunky, fun-loving pup.
With a calm and understanding home, Fern will thrive and continue to grow into the confident, affectionate dog she’s meant to be. She’s a loyal companion who’ll form a special bond with her people, and while she may be a bit shy at first, her love and trust are well worth the wait.
Fern would do best in a home with patient, gentle people who can help her feel secure as she continues to blossom. If you’re looking for a small, playful dog with a heart of gold, Fern might be the perfect fit. With a little time and love, she’ll become the joyful, energetic friend you’ve been searching for.
