Meet Princess

Meet our “Princess”

Princess is a 6lb 11yo blind shih tzu/Maltese mix whose original owner was unable to care for her (she had last been to the vet in 2015)..

Princess is a very smart and sweet little old lady- she is housetrained, independent, confident and loves to explore.

Princess’ Vet check:

She has full cataracts but she maps out her space quickly, within a few days she’s confident on where she is and where she is going (unless you move things around a lot)

She has a hearty appetite

She is intact and has a few mammary masses

Bloodwork came back with a few slight elevations but nothing drastic.

Care Plan:

Give her time to settle into her new home - once there recheck labs in 2-3 months. Her new family will to determine how to proceed. We would love to see Princess get to live out her life spoiled and happy!

Best home for Princess:

She will do well in an calm home with people around more often then not. She is housetrained and has no issue sleeping through the night.. she prefers to sleep til about 8, eat, do a couple of laps in the yard then take a snooze for another few hours.

She can be an only dog or with other sweet/gentle adult/ senior dogs, she is being fostered with another dog now- she isn’t phased by his presence one way or the other.

She would do great in a house or apartment with a fenced outside area.

She is not needy or demanding- she is just happy to have a place to call home and a family to love.


She will walk into your life and within days it will feel like she’s always been there- she will brighten up your day regardless of the weather!

Don't wait and miss out!!!!
