A LA estimate for a dog this size and coat. Excludes the adoption fee and anything unexpected.
Fully grown. This breed typically settles around 20–30 lbs.
Madeleine there's a beautiful little mama dog who has found on the streets of Los Angeles. She was struggling to provide for her two puppies, looking for food in the garbage. Some kind people found her and her puppies and got them to safety and they made their way to us. Now she's in a foster home and waiting for her forever home. She's about 20 to 25 pounds, dog friendly and very sweet. She's young, playful, and has so much love to give. If you're looking to give a good dog, a second chance, please consider filling out an application for her.
🧠 Temperament
She's about 20 to 25 pounds, dog friendly and very sweet. Bold, curious and busy.
🎾 Exercise
Moderate to high, and mental more than physical — 45-60 minutes plus digging, sniffing or puzzle outlets.
✂️ Grooming
Varies. Wiry coats need hand-stripping or clipping every few months; smooth coats need very little.
🏙️ In an LA apartment
Their small size suits apartments well. Watch for barking at hallway noise and a strong interest in squirrels and rats.
