Gouda is a sweet, gentle Yorkie/Dachshund mix who recently raised a litter of 10 puppies and is now ready for a loving forever home. She is shy with new people and needs time to build trust, but becomes affectionate, loyal, and happiest near her person once she feels safe.

Gouda prefers a quiet, predictable lifestyle with few visitors. She is dog-friendly but does not enjoy busy events, strangers, or dog parks. She is a high flight-risk dog and once escaped from both her collar and harness, so her adopter must be extremely careful with doors and gates.

Ideal Home

• A very secure, fully fenced yard is required.
• No neighborhood leash walks.
• No children.
• Someone home often.
• A quiet, low-traffic home with few visitors.
• An experienced dog owner is preferred.
• Another calm, friendly dog would be a plus.
• Applicants must live in Miami-Dade, Broward, or Palm Beach County; out-of-state adoptions are not available.

Ongoing Health

Gouda’s adoption fee includes spay surgery, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipping, bloodwork, fecal testing, flea, tick, and heartworm prevention, and a heartworm test when age appropriate.

Training & Support

Gouda is house-trained. She loves routine and stability and will need patience as she builds trust.
