Description

It breaks my heart to write this, but due to a change in my circumstances and having to relocate, I need to find a loving new home for my beautiful girl.

She is an 8-year-old female, de-sexed, Bichon x Shih Tzu in excellent health. She is an indoor dog who has always been part of the family. She has never been crated or kennelled and is happiest relaxing inside with her people.

She has a gentle, affectionate nature once she knows you and absolutely loves:
❀️ Cuddles and tummy rubs
🧸 Soft and squeaky toys
πŸš— Car rides
🐾 Walks around the neighbourhood
🌳 Trips to the dog park
πŸ– Food (she never says no to a treat!)

She can be anxious around people she doesn’t know and needs a little time and patience to build trust. Once she feels safe, she is incredibly loyal, loving and enjoys being close to her family.

To ensure she’s happy and successful in her new home, she would be best suited to:

An adult-only home or one with older, respectful children.

A home without cats.

Someone who can give her the time, love and reassurance she deserves.

This decision has not been made lightly. My only priority is finding the right forever home where she will be loved as much as she is now. I am happy to wait for the right family rather than rush the process.

If you think you can offer her a safe, caring and permanent home, please get in touch and tell me a little about yourself and the home you could provide.
