Meet Mei Mei! This little Shih Tzu is about two years old and weighs just under 9 lbs. She’s facing challenges in shelter life and is searching for a loving home where she can feel safe and comfortable. Mei Mei is a gentle soul who does well with other dogs, having lived with at least one before. While she’s submissive and tends to watch other dogs, having a calm canine companion may help her build confidence. Although she’s terrified of cats, with careful introductions, dog-friendly cats might be acceptable since she’s not aggressive. An adult-only home, or one with older teens, would be ideal to keep her environment calm. She enjoys her outdoor time and walks well on a leash, although she can be stubborn when nervous. Currently, she has low-to-moderate energy levels, but being young means she could become more playful as she settles in. Mei Mei truly adores being held and snuggling up with her human, showing just how affectionate she can be. She’s a soft, sensitive girl who deserves to find her forever home. Ready to fall in love?
