Story
Dawn is a six year old ShihTzu who recently came into rescue when her dad passed and Mom went back to work.  Dawn is sweet as sugar.  This little diva does well with other dogs and I assume cats too.  She is spayed, housetrained, walks on leash, loves to travel and she is friendly.  Dawn is spayed, vaccinated, on monthly heartworm and flea prevention and is heartworm negative.  She is a good dog for anyone, especially an older person or couple.  Dawn would be a good apartment dog.  Times are hard and Dawn's  adoption fee is a tax deductible donation to the rescue and is required to buy dogfood and pay vet bills for the other Fairy Dogmother dogs.  January 31, 2026, 1:58 pm
