My story

DOB: 05/11/2025 Breed: Papillon mixSpayed female 9lbsMicrochipped & fully vaccinatedNegative for heartworm & tick-borne diseases, and on a monthly preventative*Adoption Fee $500*A little bit about me… Pleased to meet you, I’m Mona! At first, I might come off like a calm and gentle girl, but don’t be fooled, once I get comfortable, my puppy energy really comes out! I love zooming around and roughhousing with other little doggie friends whenever I get the chance. I’m a sweet girl, but I’ll be honest...I do have a bit of a stubborn princess streak. I like things my way and I believe I deserve the royal treatment. Since I’m still a puppy, I’m going to need a family that’s ready to keep working on my training. I’m not very polite on the leash, and I’ll need continued guidance with the basics so that I can grow into the best girl possible. I also still have that classic puppy habit of being a little mouthy and nippy, so I would not be best for young children right now. If you’re looking for a fun, spunky little companion, I might be your girl!The highlights…-Very energetic-I can be stubborn -I’m still a puppy-Sweet demeanorKey points to know…-Expect lots of energy and brainpower. Papillons are small but very intelligent and energetic dogs. Daily playtime, walks, and mental stimulation will keep them happy and prevent boredom behaviors like chewing or barking.-At this age, she’s still learning! Consistent, positive reinforcement training will help her grow into a well-mannered adult.-Grooming and skin care matter for white coats. All white dogs show dirt and tear stains more easily. Regular brushing, gentle baths when needed, and keeping the eyes clean will help maintain that beautiful coat. Papillon mixes also benefit from brushing to prevent tangles and keep their fur healthy.
