At 12 years young, this short-haired chi is still headlining the main stage of life! Don’t let her compact 7-pound frame fool you – Bestival is surprisingly long in both size and personality. Our festival queen can work a crowd, charming both two-legged and four-legged fans alike. She’s also mastered the art of crowd surfing (straight onto your lap) and is ready to share the good vibes as your VIP lap warmer and backstage bestie. Have you got what it takes to be part of Bestival’s encore tour? Come on up, because this sweet headliner is searching for her lifetime festival crew.
Here’s some notes from her foster:
Meet Bestival — a 12-year-old, 6.8-pound icon of resilience, sass, and snuggles.
Yes, she’s technically pretty much toothless and jawless but don’t let that fool you — this girl LOVES food. Like, passionately. She eats with the enthusiasm of a teenager at an all-you-can-eat sushi buffet. No teeth? No problem. And the cherry eye? Don’t worry! It doesn’t bother her and she can still see and find all the crumbs you drop on the floor!
She’s got stairs. She uses them. She can go up AND down them like a tiny, determined mountain goat. She climbs onto the couch with her special little steps like she’s boarding a private jet — first class, always.
Hobbies include:
Sleeping
Napping
Sleeping in slightly different positions
Casual stretching
Eating
Looking like a baked potato while doing all of the above
She is potty trained, but she does prefer to stick to her morning potty routine (stars, they’re just like us). And when the day’s work is done, she becomes the ultimate cuddle bug — she loves to snuggle in bed and will wedge herself into your side like a living, snoring hot water bottle.
Bonus feature: Bestival is a certified shadow. Wherever you go, there she is. Bathroom? Yep. Kitchen? Oh, absolutely. Couch? Already there, waiting. She may be tiny, but she is fully committed to following her human like a devoted little stalker.
She gets along great with other dogs, and despite being found as a stray, she’s incredibly sweet, friendly, and full of love (and food).
So if you’re in the market for a little bat-eared, tongue-out, cuddle-loving nap queen who’s half shadow, half marshmallow… Bestival might just be your girl
