Sassy

Sassy is an approximately 5-6 year old Shih tzu who has come from a puppy mill. She is a delightful, sweet girl who has thankfully been released from a life of breeding and producing puppies for profit. While initially shy, she has blossomed into a fun, happy girl with a zest for life with a tail that just never stops wagging! She's been spayed, had a dental and is now up-to-date with all her vetting. She has a small cherry eye that we are working on getting repaired but does not interfere with her vision or cause pain. Sassy had a grooming prior to coming into rescue that entailed a very short cut due to severe matting. She's still a bit itchy but getting over that day by day but we do give her soothing shampoos twice a week. Sassy is pretty much housetrained now and goes out with the other dogs to do her business. She is not vocal or destructive when left alone. She is a wonderful house guest and is easy to live with and even easier to love as per her foster family. Sassy now knows how to walk on a leash. Although she can still be skittish it becomes less and less each day. Ideal home would be a house with a fenced yard, another dog in the home and no toddlers (due to their noise level, not because she would be aggressive with them) If you are interested in meeting Sassy, please complete our adoption app at: https://www.speakingofdogs.com/adoption/dog-adoption-application-2/
