My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


She's 7, special needs are she's diabetic and nearly blind as a result of that. Has to have shots 2x a day, at breakfast and dinner. If she eats the regular amount give her normal dose of insulin, if half then half and so on. It's best to feed her about 12 hours apart. If she doesn't eat, then no medicine either. You'll have to have a vet or find a place to purchase her vetsulin from. Comes with medical history. As a shih tzu she's lower energy and doesn't require much exercise, she does need grooming a few times a year though. She's smart and adaptable - catches on quickly. She is friendly, loves people and is good with other dogs but cats make her very nervous to be around too often because she's been attacked by a couple in the past. She knows the commands sit, stay, come, lay down, up, shake, spin, speak, and can howl along with you. But she's no yapper, barely ever barks. A well behaved and super sweet dog ready to give love and be loved furever! Thank you!
