About Coraline

Coraline is a delightful 5-month-old Shih Tzu navigating her way through a big, new world. She’s a bit undersocialized and tends to be cautious around new people, so she requires a patient home that can help her build confidence at her own pace. Once Coraline feels comfortable, she transforms into a total lap snuggler and has a soft spot for treats. While she enjoys the company of other dogs, gentle play is definitely more her style than roughhousing. Potty training has been going well once she's settled into her environment. With a little patience and a lot of love, Coraline is bound to blossom into the affectionate companion she was meant to be. Your new best friend is just one click away.
