Dakota

Age: 10 years old Sex: Female Breed: Chihuahua  Weight: 8 pounds Good in Home with: Dogs, Cats

Dakota’s ears were borrowed from summer thunder.

Perfectly engineered. Precision based. Tuned to hear absolutely everything happening in a three-mile radius, which is important when you’re a Chihuahua queen tasked with overseeing your kingdom.

And what a queen she is.

Tiny body. Huge ears. Beautiful glass-rain eyes that seem to hold entire weather systems behind them. She feels a little like the Dakota plains themselves — wide open, strong, quietly beautiful, and impossible to forget once you’ve seen them.

Dakota is looking for a simple life overflowing with love. One person. One family. A cozy couch. A warm blanket. A little routine. A lot of devotion.

Cats? Welcome.

Dogs? Welcome.

In fact, her foster family suspects she may actually be turning into a cat. The evidence is mounting daily.

She’s thoughtful. Regal. Hilarious. Deeply affectionate. The kind of small dog with enough character to fill an entire house.

Have you ever seen a summer storm roll across an open prairie?

Beautiful. Powerful. Peaceful.

That’s Dakota.
