Story
Chloe is a gentle, sweet senior girl who’s discovering joy all over again. For the first part of her life, Chloe lived with a family who had her for seven years, but for reasons we’ll never fully understand, they decided they didn’t want her anymore. What came before that is a mystery, but we’re focused on the bright future ahead. When she first arrived in her foster home, Chloe was quiet and withdrawn, clearly unsure of the world around her. Then a dental exam revealed she had been living with pain, and after the extraction of four troublesome teeth, everything began to change. She also had some skin issues on her tail and lower back, but with love and care, her skin has improved and her hair is growing back nicely. With all this discomfort gone, Chloe’s sweet and spunky personality emerged. Today, she’s a happy girl who lights up at the sight of her food bowl and absolutely loves a treat—especially if it’s soft, since she’s not a real fan of dry kibble. Chloe is indifferent to other dogs so she could be in an only dog home. Chloe hasn’t been tested with children or cats, but her sweet and calm temperament suggests she’d be a wonderful companion for both.Chloe is spayed, heartworm negative, and walks beautifully on a leash. She insists on a companion when she needs to go outside. She will come find you if she sees you’re not following. She is polite and quick when the weather is wet—no lingering for this lady. On sunny days, though, she enjoys exploring the yard at her own relaxed pace. Chloe is looking for a quiet, loving home with someone who enjoys a laid-back lifestyle and the occasional stroll around the block. This special senior may have had a rough start, but she’s more than ready for a happy, peaceful future.Name: ChloeBreed: Shih Tzu MixSex: FemaleAge: 11 years (estimated)Weight: 20.0Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: Unknown, will be testedGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: Unknown, will be testedAdoption Fee: $300.00 (includes transport fee when applicable)Location of dog currently: Tennessee IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.
