My story

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

14 year old Shih Tzu Mix Daj was surrendered to a kill shelter after his owner was hospitalized during the pandemic. It is a heartbreaking story, but unfortunately, that happened a lot during the pandemic.

Because Daj is visually impaired (he's not fully blind) he gets startled when someone approaches him suddenly. Naturally, he was deemed aggressive when he snapped at the assessor at the shelter. But it wasn't aggression, it was fear.

Ever since we pulled him, he’s been a nothing but a sweetheart! Daj likes to hang out with humans and enjoys the company of other calm, sweet dogs. Daj is a senior, but he acts like a much younger dog! He's quite active, and loves his walkies in the neighborhood. Give this sweet boy a chance - it will do your heart good.
