About Baby

Meet Baby! This sweet Shih Tzu mix is estimated to be 7 years old and weighs 10.4 pounds, making her adorably petite. She's slowly learning to enjoy her time outside her kennel, but still prefers the comfort of her space. Baby loves belly rubs and has a knack for going outside on a leash in the backyard, where she knows it's time for business. With some dedicated care, she's gradually getting used to her routine. Although she’s a bit timid about noisy walks, she’s doing great on puppy pads when needed. This gentle girl gets along well with the cats in her foster home, is good with visiting dogs, and is fine around children. Although she thrives in a calm setting, she feels safe once she knows her surroundings. Recently spayed, Baby is also up to date on her vaccinations and microchipped. Baby is being fostered in La Crescent, MN. Click apply to start the adoption process.
