You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Ima Yoshi: Your Loyal, Snuggly Companion Awaits! Meet Ima Yoshi, a handsome 2-year-old Chihuahua mix ready to dedicate his heart to his forever family! This sweet boy is a perfect blend of playful energy and cozy cuddles, all wrapped up in a convenient 12-pound package. Yoshi is an absolute dream dog for the right home. He is completely house-trained and loves the routine of life—he gets excited for his walks and is a fantastic co-pilot for car rides. When the day is done, he transforms into the ultimate snuggle buddy, insisting on sleeping right by you and being your personal couch companion! Yoshi's Best Qualities: A Dog's Dog: Plays well and is friendly with other dogs. Playful Spirit: Loves toys and bones! He's a typical small dog who enjoys a casual game of fetch indoors when the mood strikes. Ready to Go: He is neutered, microchipped, and current on all immunizations. Finding the Right Fit: Yoshi is a deep lover, but he needs a moment to warm up. He can be shy at first, but we promise that once he loves you, he will love you forever! Because of his initially reserved nature and preference for a calm environment, Yoshi would thrive in a home with no children under the age of 12.
