Meet Sugar - A Heart of Gold Wrapped in Softness Sugar is a two-year-old Shih Tzu/Bichon mix who weighs 13 pounds, and she truly lives up to her name. With her gentle nature and warm, loving spirit, she is the kind of dog who brings an instant sense of calm and comfort wherever she goes. Sugar is incredibly friendly and naturally seeks out attention, quietly making her way toward you for pets and affection. She doesn't ask for much-just a kind hand, a soft place to rest, and someone to love her back. Being close to her people is where she feels happiest. She gets along beautifully with other dogs and would do well with a canine companion, but she would be just as content soaking up all the love as the only dog in the home. Her easygoing personality makes her a wonderful fit for so many kinds of families. There is something so peaceful about Sugar's presence. Her calm, steady demeanor feels like she's just been waiting for the moment someone shows her the life she's always deserved. And when that happens, she'll be right there-quietly devoted, endlessly loving, and ready to share her heart. Available for adoption at our Dogsville location in Humansville, MO Apply to adopt at www.nmdr.org (select Missouri) ------ Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of these dogs adapt quite quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. To learn more about mill dogs and start the adoption process, visit our website!
