Although she is still quite timid, she is gradually making progress in overcoming her fears. This sweet girl can flinch at the faintest sounds and unexpected movements, highlighting her sensitive nature after living in a puppy mill for the first years of her life Winnie's vocalizations are delightful, but potential adopters should keep in mind that she may not be suited for apartment living due to her expressive personality. In her foster home, Winnie has developed a lovely rapport with other dogs, often displaying a fun-loving and mischievous spirit that brings joy to her surroundings. To thrive, she would benefit from a home with another dog(s) and a human companion who can spend plenty of time with her. Winnie is puppy pee-trained, but she requires regular trips outside since she doesn’t always indicate when she needs to go.  Her new home must have direct access to a securely fenced yard where she can frolic freely! When it comes to leash walks, Winnie can be a little evasive, often darting away as she adjusts to new experiences, so patience and gentle guidance will be key. This charming girl loves to snuggle up at night, finding comfort sleeping on the bed alongside her human and furry friends. With time and love, Winnie is sure to blossom into a cherished companion. Winnie has been spayed, vaccinated, dental cleaning, microchipped and has received monthly preventatives.  Winnie’s adoption fee will $750.00 and will include her health records.   If you wish to submit an application for Winnie, please click on this link https://www.animalert.ca/apply/dog-adoption If you wish to learn more about Animalert, please visit our website at     https://www.animalert.ca/ Due to the volume of emails, phone calls and messages Animalert receives, it is not always possible to respond to every application.

Story
***NOT ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS AT THIS TIME***Hi, I’m Holly 🌸I’m an approximately 5-year-old Shih Tzu with the softest, silkiest fur and big round eyes that are always watching the world with curiosity. I had a tough start in life as a mill mom, but I’m learning every day that life can be warm, safe, and full of love.I’m a very gentle girl with the fastest tail wag you’ve ever seen — seriously, it never stops! I love everyone I meet, whether they’re people, big dogs, little dogs, or even cats. Friends are my favorite.My happy place is curled up under a heated blanket, especially if I can burrow all the way in for a cozy nap. Treats make me very proud of myself, and I love working a snuffle mat — I’m a great eater and highly motivated by snacks (who isn’t?).I’m still learning that I don’t have to be so submissive and that it’s okay to take up space. I can be nervous at first, but I’m very curious, and my confidence is growing a little more each day. With patience and kindness, I blossom.If you’re looking for a sweet, loving companion who will adore you with her whole heart (and wag her tail nonstop), I might just be your girl. *located in Burlington
