Hi hi hi! I’m Kimmy, a fun-sized wiggle machine with a love for long walks, belly rubs, and all the attention you’re willing to give. I might only be about a year old, but I’ve already mastered the art of being adorable, just ask anyone who’s ever scratched my butt. (Pro tip: that’s the fastest way to my heart.)

I get super excited when you come home, but I’m polite. I’ll wait in my crate without barking until you let me out. I just love being around you and will soak up every second of attention I can get. But don’t worry, if you’ve got other things to do (like grab breakfast or go to work), I won’t beg. I’ll just curl up on something soft, like your hoodie or a blanket, and quietly snooze or watch the world from the window.

I walk like I’ve got places to be, which I do: sniff spots, squirrel patrol, and showing off my best trot! I walk with a harness (I’ve got a collapsed trachea but it’s no issue as long as I don’t put pressure on my neck), and my foster uses a waist leash to help keep up with me. I’m working on not pulling too much… I just get so excited to be outside! On that note, I do sometimes cough a little when I get too excited but it’s rare and manageable.

I don’t really care much for toys, but if you’ve got a squeaky Halloween pumpkin? Now that I’ll play with. Mostly, I just want pets, snuggles, and belly rubs, especially if you lie on the floor with me. I’ll join you right away, flopped on my back like a starfish.

I haven’t been up on furniture yet, but I’ve claimed my foster’s hoodie as my bed. I have excellent taste. I also sometimes hop up on my back legs when I’m curious or want your attention, it’s one of my signature moves.

What kind of home am I looking for? I’d love a family or home with multiple humans so there’s always someone around for a cuddle or a walk. A backyard isn’t necessary (I’m more of a power walker than a backyard zoomer), but access to green spaces or trails would be amazing. Just bring a water bottle, I walk fast and need a refresh! If you’re looking for a smart, sweet, active little buddy who’s full of love, has the best expressive ears, and will reward you with constant affection and goofy grins, I’m your girl. Can’t wait to meet you, Kimmy 💛
