My story

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

Gia is an 8-year-old spayed Shih Tzu with the gentlest soul and a heart full of love. She’s incredibly well-mannered, enjoys greeting people and other dogs on walks, and still has plenty of energy for her age. Her favorite things are cuddles, belly rubs, and simply being close to her people.

Due to unforeseen financial and time constraints, Gia hasn’t yet been able to see a veterinarian for recent urinary issues. She is otherwise happy, eating well, and very much herself. At this time, she is experiencing incontinence that may be related to a UTI or similar condition, and she is currently wearing diapers. She is house-trained, and these accidents are out of character for her.

Gia deserves a loving home with someone who can take her to the vet for an exam and provide any treatment she may need. In return, she will offer unwavering companionship, affection, and endless love. She’s a truly special girl who just needs a chance and a compassionate heart willing to care for her. 🐶💕
