All about Lil Bit:

This incredibly sweet and snuggly girl landed in the shelter through no fault of her own. She is eager to once again have her own family!  See what her foster has to say about her:

"Oh my. Lil Bit is the lappiest of lap dogs! From the moment she arrived on transport, she has wanted nothing more than to be with me.

She is polite and submissive to the other dogs in my home. But she prefers me. Whenever I sit down, she is right there, wanting to be right next to me (she can curl up into a surprisingly tiny bagel to fit into small places!). 

She loves her walks! She enjoys sniffing and exploring. And when we're on walks, Lil Bit wants to go say hi to every person who passes. If anyone crouches down to pet her, her entire body wriggles and she'll press against them, trying to slink up onto the lap they've created. It is just so cute to watch. She is neutral about other dogs and ignores them when on leash. 

One great thing about her - her head and face make her look like a small Chihuahua. But whatever she's mixed with has taller legs and a deeper chest, so she has the strength and leg length for longer and faster trots - and those legs are surprisingly strong and springy for a "Chi" mix. She's able to handle different types of terrain and stairs easily.

She adds so much happy energy to my home. When I open her crate in the morning, she explodes out, utterly thrilled to start the day with me. She has those bursts of ecstatic joy where she wriggles on her back, begging for belly rubs and pets. But when I'm working, she curls up in a cushy spot and chills. 

Lil Bit is the most loving and physically affectionate dog anyone could want.  All in all just an all around great dog. She and her forever family will be very lucky to have each other."
