About Annie

Meet Annie, a gentle Shih Tzu who deserves a happily ever after. Found wandering around in poor condition, she was severely matted and dehydrated. Fortunately, Annie has shown incredible resilience and is now ready for a loving home. She gets along well with other dogs and enjoys their company, but she would do best in a home without cats, as she has shown a tendency to chase them. Annie can be shy, particularly around men, and is more comfortable with women and older, respectful children who understand the need for patience in building trust. Annie is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations. She is currently in Texas but can travel to various locations in the U.S., though some states, like Rhode Island and Massachusetts, are off-limits. If you're ready to offer Annie the safe and loving environment she craves, apply to adopt her today!
