About Goldie

Goldie is a gentle and friendly Shih Tzu looking for her forever home. At 10 years old, she's a well-mannered senior who enjoys daily walks but is equally content snuggling on the couch while you relax. Although she has dry eyes, this is easily managed with daily eye drops, a small routine that ensures you both enjoy plenty of love and companionship. Being house trained, spayed, and up to date on vaccinations, Goldie is ready to settle into a new home. She thrives in a calm environment where she can be close to her person, making her a great match for someone who is retired or works from home. Small dogs like her can live long, happy lives, so she still has many good years ahead. Older dogs, just like younger ones, deserve a loving family. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
