My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Mochi: Your Future Best Friend in Fur

Mochi is a sweet, retired puppy mill mom who has spent most of her life in less than ideal conditions. This beautiful Shih Tzu is now ready to find her forever home where she can experience the love and care she truly deserves.

About Mochi:

Age: 6 years old
Breed: Shih Tzu
Personality: Timid but loving, Mochi is still learning to trust humans. She is incredibly sweet once she warms up and is eager to please.
Special Needs: Mochi needs a lot of work on housetraining. She's still getting used to the idea of living in a home, so patience and consistency will be key.
Social: Mochi is terrified of people but finds comfort and confidence in the presence of other dogs. She absolutely must have other canine companions in her new home to help her feel secure and loved.

Why Mochi?
Mochi is looking for a special someone who understands that love sometimes means taking a little extra time to build trust.
