My story

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

Say hello to darling little Peggy. Look at that face! That awesome hairdo! She came to us when her former owner passed away and she was brought to a shelter. Peggy is a senior girl, about 10 years old. She is looking for a quiet, peaceful home to enjoy her golden years (so no young kids, please). We don't know what her past life was like, but she has some fear issues and is going to require a patient adopter who will allow her time and space to get to know them. She loves just sleeping quietly beside you while you work or watch TV. She is hard to catch if there is something she doesn't want to do, such as going outside, so she needs a home with someone who can work with her on that. She also requires a fenced yard, as she tries to bolt when frightened. She is not a dog who wants to go out and about. She was absolutely terrified when she recently went to the vet, including in the car, so she just wants to stay home and enjoy the security of that. She gets extremely stressed in the car, so a home in close proximity to her foster home is needed. She does not like pesty dogs getting her space and will warn them, so a home with active dogs would not be a match, but a low-key, respectful older small dog would be fine. Peggy weighs about 12 lbs and she is hoping to find a home where someone is home a lot of the time. She will give you lots of snuggle time sitting close beside you on the couch in return. (Peggy is being fostered in TN)
