Sunshine's Story

Meet Sunshine<br/>- Approximately 2–3-year-old<br/>- 10lbs<br/>- Spayed female Shih Tz<br/><br/>She must have another friendly, confident dog in her adoptive home.<br/><br/>Sunshine came from a large hoarding situation where she lived with about 60 other Shih Tzus, so much of the world is still new to her. Every day, she becomes a little braver, more curious, and more confident.<br/><br/>Another dog is the key to helping Sunshine thrive. She closely watches and follows her foster brother who has shown her that people can be trusted, laps are comfortable, and walks are fun. When he jumps onto the couch or climbs into a lap, Sunshine climbs on right after him. <br/><br/>She is sweet, gentle, and even-tempered. She is not barky, reactive, snappy, or demanding. Sunshine has a quiet, thoughtful nature, although she is feeling much spunkier lately and can be stubborn, theatrical, and opinionated. She has perfected the classic Shih Tzu side-eye, eye roll, and Judgement Face.<br/><br/>Additional Notes: <br/>**She walks beautiful on leash, She loves her dialy neighborhood walks. <br/>**Loud or unfamiliar noises can still make her nervous, but she recovers quickly, would prefer a home without young kids<br/>**Loves chicken, peanut butter, and the company of other dogs<br/>**Sleeps quietly in her crate or on her couch throne<br/>**Handles being left alone without difficulty<br/>**Is doing much better at house training since the bladder stone is gone and goes potty when taken outside<br/>**Benefits from a predictable routine and regular opportunities to go outdoors<br/><br/>What makes Sunshine special is watching her discover that the world is not such a frightening place after all. Every day she tries something new, trusts a little more, and lets more of her personality show. <br/><br/>Medical: <br/>Sunshine comes Spayed, up to date on basic shots, microchipped, fecal testing (negative), 4dx testing (negative), and wellness check completed and cleared for adoption!<br/>Sunshine recently had surgery to remove a large bladder stone.
