Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This precious little 8 lb shih tzu/poodle mix is 2 years old. She was owner surrendered by a family who was having financial difficulty. They placed the pet in the care of a friend but that person did not do Melea any favors. When I took this dog she was extremely fearful and mistrustful. She was so afraid of being beaten that she cried out when I came near her kennel to get her in the house.
She was underweight, extremely matted and had an eye injury that appears to be healing.
Meme has since been groomed and fully vetted. She is heart worm negative and has had pro heart vaccine. She has a healthy appetite and loves sitting in her foster mom's lap. Meme will still have some issues meeting strangers but as long as she is not challenged by trying to grab her, she will be fine with the person she trusts to handle her. She is crate trained and pad trained and loves to go out on her leash. She is also microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200
