About Sunshine

Sunshine is a delightful senior Shih Tzu mix who's ready to find her forever home alongside her sister, Peaches. These two adorable siblings have been through a lot together after being surrendered when their beloved owner transitioned to a care facility. Despite their past, Sunshine and Peaches are eager for a new beginning filled with love and warmth. Almost 12 years old, these girls still have plenty of affection to share. Weighing around 25 pounds each, they're working on a healthy weight-loss plan, and their future family will need to support their journey towards better health. Both dog-friendly and cat-friendly, they bring double the love and sweetness. They also have a friendly demeanor, making them potentially great with kids as well. Well-trained and sweet-natured, Sunshine is looking for a loving home where she can enjoy snuggles and companionship with her sister. If you think you can provide that, please reach out about adopting this precious duo. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
