My story

🌟 Meet Autumn! 🍂 Breed: Yorkie-Bichon Mix Age: 7 years Gender: Female Energy Level: High Dog Friendly: Yes (especially small dogs!) Kid Friendly: Yes Stranger Friendly: Absolutely! Autumn is a pint-sized pup with a big personality and an even bigger smile! At 7 years young, she’s the perfect mix of playful and independent. If you’re looking for a dog who will keep you entertained, love a game of fetch more than life itself, and greet you with pure joy (and maybe a barky request for toys), Autumn is your girl. 🎾 Her favorite pastime? Playing fetch with any toy that fits in her mouth — and trust us, she’s not shy about asking for it! 🚶‍♀️ She’s enjoyable on leash, completely non-reactive to other dogs during walks, and happy to greet new friends with a wag and a sniff. 🏡 She’s house-trained but still learning how to tell you when she needs to go. Bell training is a work in progress. Autumn is great with children, men, women — everyone she meets, she greets with curiosity and kindness. She especially enjoys the company of smaller dogs and will try to initiate play, though she’s politely uninterested in the big guys. While she’s full of energy, she has an independent streak, too. She’ll snuggle up next to you in bed for a few minutes but prefers her own space to sleep. She’s also content being left alone when you’re out — no crate needed! 🍖 Autumn thrives with enrichment like Kongs and lick mats, and her intelligent, spunky personality means she’d love a home that can keep up with her playful spirit. Autumn’s smile is contagious, and her joyful personality lights up any room. She’s looking for a loving home that can offer her time to play, affection on her terms, and a little patience as she continues polishing her potty skills. Could Autumn be your forever fetch partner? Apply to meet her today — and get ready to fall in love. 💕🐾

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Autumn, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
