About Suzy

Meet Suzy, a delightful Dachshund/Shih Tzu mix looking for her new forever home. At five years old, she weighs around 28 pounds and sports a lovely bicolor coat. Originally from a loving family, Suzy is now on a journey to find the next chapter in her life after her previous family was unable to take her along when they moved. Though she may be a bit timid at first, Suzy quickly blossoms into a loving and snuggly companion with a gentle touch and a bit of patience. She thrives in a low-energy household where she can feel secure and loved again. Suzy gets along well with male dogs and would benefit from a canine companion in her new home. While she has experience with children, the dynamics with cats remain to be tested. Suzy comes house-trained and crate-trained, is vaccinated, and will be spayed soon. She knows some commands in Spanish and enjoys being reassured of her sweetness. A family willing to give her time to settle will be rewarded with a loyal and affectionate friend.
