About Snickers
Snickers is a cuddly, affectionate baby girl with a huge heart and an even bigger personality. She absolutely loves being with her humans—not necessarily in your lap, just near you where she can see you. If she wakes up from one of her many daily naps and spots you, her little tail starts wagging immediately!
She is incredibly responsive when spoken to and loves being included in everything you do. Whether you're sitting on the couch, cooking, or walking around the yard, Snickers wants to be part of the action. Her foster carers have nicknamed her Piglet as she makes the cutest pig like sounds!
🐾 Her Personality
💛 Cuddly, loving, people‑focused
🐽 Makes adorable piggy snorting sounds
🐔 Playfully curious—especially about the chickens
🎉 Bouncy, energetic, and full of silly puppy zoomies
🤗 Friendly with everyone she meets—lots of wiggles and tail wags
😄 Cheeky little thief—slippers beware!
💕 Snickers’ Favourite Things
🛌 Sleeping where she can see her humans
🫶 Belly rubs
🍗 Food! (She’s super food‑motivated—great for training!)
🐤 Her squeaky duck toy
🪢 Her rope toy
🧦 Anything left at “Piglet level”—including stray slippers
🌼 Exploring the garden
🐔 Trying to play with the chickens (they’re… less enthusiastic)
🧠 Training & Development
Snickers is only a tiny baby, so she’s just beginning toilet training. She’s very responsive, eager to learn, and food‑motivated, but accidents still happen—very normal for her age!
She understands human voices well and loves being praised, which will make her a fantastic trainee as she grows.
🏡 Her Ideal Home
Snickers would thrive in a family who can offer:
💛 Lots of cuddles and closeness
🧸 Toys, enrichment, and space for puppy zoomies
⏰ Patience with toilet training
👨👩👧👦 A home where she’s involved in daily life
🐦 Somewhere safe to explore outdoors (bonus points if there are chickens to “play” with!)
She’s a social, loving, wiggly, snorting bundle of joy who wants nothing more than a family to adore.
