Paula

“Hi, I’m Paula… The 10‑Pound Queen of Sass and Snuggles.” From the heart of a pint‑sized girl with a big personality

Hi there. My name is Paula, and I may only weigh about ten pounds, but trust me… I am not small. Not in spirit, not in attitude, and definitely not in the way I run my little world. I’m a pug–chihuahua cross, which means I’ve got the perfect mix of adorable squish and spicy confidence. I’m somewhere between 1 and 2 years old, fully grown, and absolutely ready to find the person who will love me forever.

I started my journey in Yuma, wandering around as a stray with no one to call my own. Nobody came looking for me, and nobody knew my story. But I kept my chin up and my tail curled, because I knew my future had to be brighter than my past. Now I’m staying at Central Arizona Animal Rescue, and I’m hoping—really hoping—that the next chapter of my life begins with you.
