Waffles

My story

If you think all small dogs are yappy, anxious, and annoying, Waffles is about to ruin your entire worldview—she's the small dog for people who don't like small dogs, 10.7 pounds of quiet confidence who rarely barks, never yaps, and approaches life with the curiosity of a detective and the happiness of someone who just won the lottery, proving that NOT all small dogs are created equal. This one-year-old Cairn Terrier mix arrives at your home already potty-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained, and reliably coming when called, which means you skip the hard work and jump straight to the good parts: morning tummy rubs, peaceful car rides together, and those addictive little kisses she loves to give. Picture coming home to a wiggling bundle of pure joy who's already mastered the art of being the perfect companion—she'll use her pee pads or go outside, walks beautifully on leash investigating every fascinating thing with infectious enthusiasm, settles contentedly in her crate when needed, plays happily with her deer horn toys, and transforms car rides from stressful to delightful, all while loving every human and dog she meets with genuine warmth that makes strangers smile and neighbors stop to chat. This pocket-sized explorer with terrier personality and lap dog affection has been charming everyone in our home, confidently following our Lab everywhere while secretly preferring smaller playmates for her spirited tug-of-war sessions, bringing that rare combination of adventurous spirit and cuddly sweetness that makes every day better. We've completely fallen in love with Waffles—which is why we're being incredibly selective about her forever home because she deserves nothing less than perfect, and if you're someone who wants the convenience of a small dog without the drama, whether you're in an apartment, travel regularly, need a portable adventure buddy who knows when to explore and when to cuddle, or you've been waiting for a small dog with a big-dog soul who will follow you with quiet devotion rather than anxious yapping, then apply now—but know that we'll only say yes to the family who will treasure her as much as we do.
