Meet Gidget – A Sweet, Calm 15-Year-Old Mini Shih Tzu
Gidget is a gentle, well-mannered miniature Shih Tzu looking for a loving home for her golden years. She's in excellent health for her age, fully vaccinated, and has been cherished and well cared for her whole life.
Gidget is wonderfully easygoing:
• Great with other pets – she gets along beautifully with both dogs and cats.
• Usually quiet: she only barks when hungry.
• House-trained – she reliably goes outside, and she also knows to use pee pads if you're away for longer stretches.
• Low-maintenance lifestyle – she enjoys short, leisurely walks, but she's happiest curled up and snoozing for most of the day.
• Temperament – extremely cuddly and loving. Can be timid around young children, so she's best suited for a calmer home.
• LOVES car rides and just being with her person.
• Spayed and up-to-date on all vaccinations.
• Grooming – not her favorite activity, but she tolerates baths, brushing, and trims without any trouble.
Gidget is the perfect companion for someone who wants a quiet, cuddly, loving dog who's easy to have around and brings a warm, peaceful energy to the home. She will be timid initially but extremely loving and sweet once she gets settled in.
She and her sister, Jackie, are looking for a new home because circustances in their current living situation have changed. Their dad is trying to find a home for both of them with a person/people that will unconditionally love them just as they deserve!
Please note that both Gidget and Jackie must be adopted together as they are bonded. If you would like to find out more information about Gidget and Jackie, please contact Zach at 703-969-2433.
