About Peggy

Peggy is a gentle Shih Tzu who needs a loving and patient family to help her gain confidence. She can be shy around new faces and may react to sudden movements, though she has never shown aggression. Once she feels secure, she relishes gentle ear scratches and loves to be near her humans. She thrives in the company of both dogs and cats, and having a friendly canine companion really boosts her confidence. Peggy is currently on her potty training journey but is comfortable in a crate and enjoys running around in the backyard. Additionally, Peggy has a slight abnormality in her right hind leg, likely due to a past injury or a birth defect, but it doesn’t hinder her in any way. She’s ready to find her forever home where she can blossom. Think you are the one? Submit an application!
