Story
Shelby is a lovable fifteen year old shih tzu maltese mix. She's loves to eat and sleep... partly due to the fact that she is a senior. She loves to play but most importantly she loves to be hugged. I adopted Shelby eight years ago. Due to recent unfortunate circumstances..I'm moving and is unable to take Shelby with me. I'm looking for a loving safe space for Shelby to enjoy her pet life.

Story
If you have ever wondered what an angel in fur looks like, look no further than Coquette. So sweet and petite, Coquette weighs 9-lbs (she has gained 3-lbs since being pulled from the shelter) and is approximately 14-years old. She was very sick with pneumonia and was hospitalized for a month, but she is out of the hospital and is thriving in her foster home. Coquette gets along with dogs, cats and kids, and her favorite thing to do is sleep. She also loves to eat and to snuggle. She is very quiet and ever so special. Coquette currently requires supplements and subq fluids every few days for kidney disease. She also needs several lifelong eye medications. Coquette has a bladder stone which we will remove once she is stable enough. We are cuckoo for Coquette, and once you meet her you will be too. Coquette is spayed, up to date on shots, fully vetted, and microchipped. Adoption process includes application, interview, home visit, contract and donation. If you are interested in Coquette, please go to our website and fill out an application. Los Angeles and surrounding area adoptions only.
