Meet sweet, shy Ursula. Unfortunately, as is the case with so many Texas dogs, Ursula and her single puppy were both taken to one of our local animal shelters where they were left, scared and confused. The "owners" were going on vacation and no longer wanted them :( The shelter contacted us immediately and of course, we stepped up for both Ursula and her puppy. Ursula is currently in the care of one of our fosters where she is learning that she is safe and loved. We believe that Ursula was not treated well by her former owners as she is very timid, quiet and is initially leery of new people. Although she was shy at first, Ursula is proving to be resilient and trusting. She thrives on the attention from her foster family and enjoys being around the other dogs in the home. Here is a bit more about this sweet angel: *Believed to be a Dachshund/Shih tzu mix - possibly with some Cairn terrier *Around 6 years of age *Current weight - 18 lbs *Recently spayed *Up to date on her vaccinations *Heartworm negative *Great with other dogs *Good with cats *The ultimate "Lap Dog" *Is about 85% potty trained - Has learned how to use the doggy door What we can definitely say about Ursula is that she will make an excellent companion dog or emotional support animal for someone seeking a gentle and consistent presence in their life. Although she is fine living with other dogs and cats, Ursula's focus is her foster family. She loves nothing more than laying beside her "humans" or sleeping beside one of them at night. If you are looking for a gentle, sweet, soulful little dog who will surely bring you years of memories and happiness, look no further than our tender Urula.
