Carrots. If you’re ever shredding carrots, you’ll be sure to find a mini reindeer at your feet. Do not be fooled though, no type of treat bag opening goes unheard by April’s ears.
Everything. April is the queen of comedy with her laid-back attitude. Her tiny legs always leave her lagging behind on walks, as if she’s on her own leisurely adventure. Despite her small size, her personality is huge. She’s shamelessly social, curling up on any lap she pleases, even with strangers. Her naps are legendary—she can fall asleep anywhere, snoring so loudly you’d think it’s a grown man. And that tongue sticking out when she rests? It’s the quirky charm that makes her unforgettable.
April’s personality is as big as it is bold. She’s hilariously sassy, quick to serve attitude if another dog crosses her boundaries, but never aggressive. Despite her chill demeanor, she can steal the spotlight in an instant, from her loud snoring to her confident lap-hopping. Her unique mix of laziness, confidence, and humor makes her stand out. She’s unapologetically herself, the smallest of the pack but undeniably the funniest, sassiest, and most lovable best furfriend.
