Hiromi is a charming Belgian Malinois mix who is approximately 4 years old and weighs around 36 lbs. She was found as a stray in Mexico, underweight and covered in ticks, but her sweet nature always shone through. Now, Hiromi is a happy, healthy girl who is ready to find her forever family. She's an active and playful companion, social with adults, and forms strong bonds with those she trusts. While she can be a bit shy initially, her affectionate side quickly emerges. Hiromi is crate and leash trained, making her a great partner for walks and adventures. She's intelligent and thrives with regular exercise and mental stimulation.
