Dog of the Week: Dizzy

Dizzy is a sweet 11-year-old Shih Tzu/poodle mix that made her way from a shelter in Illinois to Iowa. Dizzy is very low key and independent. Her favorite spot is her soft pink bed. She would like a home where her people are home all day or at least aren’t gone too long. Being an older girl she needs more frequent potty breaks. She does fine with her foster dog siblings but is totally fine with being the only one. At her age dealing with young ones, two- or four-legged, is too much work so older kids and older or calm, laid back dogs would be best. Dizzy hasn’t been cat tested but as long as they are respectful of her, they should do fine.

Dizzy is crate trained and walks well on a leash but moves pretty slowly and likes to take her time. Her favorite time of day is breakfast and dinner and anything in between involving food! She will wiggle her little tail and looks like she is smiling because she is so excited. Dizzy does have food allergies but we were able to find both canned and dry food and treats that are inexpensive and won’t bother her. Other than that, she’s a healthy girl. If you are looking for an easy to love girl, Dizzy might be the one for you!

Dizzy’s adoption fee is $200 which includes spay surgery, being up to date on vaccinations and preventives, a microchip with lifetime registration, and a free obedience class.
