Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This most adorable little girl is Susie, a shih Tzu that is between 5 and 7 years old that would love a wonderful home of her own. Susie came to us from our Newark facility when she was picked up as a stray, and we just can't imagine this precious little lady out on the city streets all alone. Susie belongs on the laps of people that love her! What an absolute doll Susie is....she's friendly, outgoing, affectionate and playful. It doesn't take much to make Susie happy, just give her some attention, take her for a leisurely stroll, and cuddle up with her on a soft sofa at night, and she'll love you forever. When our veterinarian examined Susie upon arrival, she discovered that Susie has an enlarged heart and also a heart murmur. This does not seem to affect Susie much, but she will require medication long-term, and we would like her to go to a more quiet, relaxed home. She doesn't seem to mind other dogs but should not go to a home with a very playful type of dog. If you feel that you are that special someone that Susie has been waiting for, please come on in and meet her. She'll love you always! 6/12/13 File#22530
