Pup-sonality:
As just a young pup, Binkie is a charming Chihuahua mix bursting with personality, affection, and playful energy. This sweet girl is the perfect blend of cuddle bug and lively companion—always ready to snuggle up in your lap or dash around chasing her favorite toys.

When it’s playtime, Binkie shines! Whether she’s fetching toys, or zooming around outside, her playful antics are guaranteed to make you smile. She’s also great with other animals—she gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and does well with cats, making her a fantastic addition to multi-pet homes.

Binkie is crate-trained and settles well when left alone for short periods (2–4 hours). She’s currently working on her house training and is making good progress with routine and support. She’s a smart girl who already comes when called and is continuing to build her basic manners.

While Binkie can be a little shy when meeting new people, she warms up quickly once she feels safe—and before long, she’ll be showing off her affectionate, playful personality.

She enjoys car rides, behaves well at the vet, and has a happy, easygoing nature that makes her adaptable to many lifestyles.

Why you’ll love Binkie:

  • Loving, cuddly, and people-oriented
  • Playful and full of personality
  • Great with dogs and cats
  • Gentle, trusting, and easy to handle
  • A loyal companion who just wants to be by your side

Binkie would thrive in a home where she can be part of the family and continue to learn and grow. With her sweet spirit and joyful energy, she’s ready to bring endless love and laughter into her forever home.
