Personality:
Tiny in size, enormous in personality. This little bundle of sass has mastered the art of stealing hearts, demanding cuddles and keeping everyone entertained with her cheeky antics. Empress plays like no one is watching. She is a hundred miles an hour, charging around with fearless confidence, investigating everything she can find and turning every moment into an adventure. Once she has worn herself out, she is more than happy to crash in your lap for a well deserved cuddle and recharge before she's off again. She loves having her toys scattered everywhere, making sure there is always one within easy reach no matter where she decides to play.
Empress is full of sass, confidence and cheeky puppy antics that will keep you smiling from morning to night. Her big personality is already giving us a glimpse of the wonderful companion she will become.
Tamariki – 5+ due to minor mouthy behaviours that she is working on.
Cats – Ok with proper intros and supervision.
Kūri – Curious and friendly. Ongoing socialisation required due to age/size.
Stock/poultry – Untested.
Size – Currently 3.3kgs. While she may be tiny right now for her age, we believe she is likely to have more growing to do and is likely to mature into a medium to large sized dog.
Ideal home:
She would suit most homes that can offer the time, patience and commitment needed to raise a young puppy. Like all pups, she will benefit from puppy school, ongoing training and plenty of positive experiences to help her grow into a well mannered adult. She can be a little puppy mouthy as she learns, so consistency and gentle guidance will be important. Due to her limited exposure to other dogs and her tiny size, she will also need thoughtful introductions and continued positive socialisation to build her confidence.
Equal parts mischief and marshmallow, this gorgeous girl is ready to charm her way into the hearts of her forever family.
