Tammy Sue is making up for lost time! This sweet girl hopes to connect with a family that offers positive support when she is feeling overwhelmed. Our veterinary team has determined that Tammy Sue is deaf so will require a family committed to safe management on leash or in fenced areas. She may enjoy a multi-dog home, and at this time, we will only rehome her to a family with no children or kids at least 10 years of age.
