Story
If her brother is the bronze and her little sister is the beauty, lil miss chenille the brains and she knows it! Her eye is literally always on the ball, her litter mates can’t compete when it comes to attention and speed. She likes to rest her mind by relaxing on her human's lap. Be warned her bones do turn into noodles the moment she gets pets from her human and turns into a puddle of cuddles. She does recover quickly after many puppy kisses. Chenille is a puppy through and through. She loves to play and wrestle with her siblings. She also loves water! You'll find her trying to sneak into the shower and relaxing in her water bowl. She's super sweet and enjoys snuggles and play with her humans too. All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention.

Story
Small but mighty, being smallest of her litter doesn’t stop smidge from stealing the attention she deserves. Her hobbies include climbing over her litter mates for lap cuddles and kisses, chasing balls (with your help it could be called playing fetch), and being close to her humans.
