Don't let her tiny size fool you - Mable has a big personality! This sweet 16-year-old Chihuahua is looking for a special someone who understands that trust is earned. Once you're part of her inner circle, you'll discover an incredibly loyal, affectionate little companion who wants nothing more than to be by your side. Whether she's curled up beside you on the couch, supervising your day from a cozy blanket, or joining you for a leisurely stroll, Mable is happiest with her favourite people close by.

Like many little dogs, Mable can be wary of strangers. She takes time to warm up to new people and may bark or act defensively when she feels uncertain. Mable is also deaf, so she relies on visual cues, routine, and gentle touch to let her know you're there. She has adapted beautifully, but she appreciates people approaching thoughtfully and giving her time to feel comfortable. Her ideal adopter will be patient, respect her boundaries, and allow her to build trust at her own pace. Because of this, Mable is looking for an adult-only home with few visitors and a calm, predictable environment.

Mable also finds seeing other people and dogs while on leash overwhelming and can be reactive during walks. She enjoys getting outside but will do best with an adopter who can confidently manage her in low-traffic areas and help set her up for success. Despite this, she has been introduced to other small, calm dogs before and has done well with them! Cats are a no for her, though.

As a senior girl, Mable has some age-related medical needs, including ongoing twice daily medication to help manage a collapsing trachea. This condition will require regular veterinary care and oversight to watch for progression of this chronic condition. She still has plenty of pep for neighbourhood strolls, loves curling up under blankets, and has perfected the art of being an adorable little shadow.

If you're looking for a devoted companion and are willing to earn the trust of a truly special little dog, Mable will reward your patience with unwavering loyalty and unconditional love!
