Isn’t she lovely? Meet Gardenia, the sweetest shih tzu you ever did see!

It was a rough journey for Gardenia. She initially arrived at her foster home completely matted and malnourished. With some TLC, Gardenia continues to blossom into her best self. 

She makes an exceptional sidekick and lap warmer. Gardenia loves her baths, though may run the other way with nail trimming. She is dog-friendly and enjoys regular walks with her foster fur siblings. 

Gardenia learns quickly and makes a mental map of new spaces as she is partially blind. Once she gets her bearings, Gardenia is an excellent navigator. She requires a twice daily dose of eye ointment in order to ensure her condition is maintained.

Gardenia could be the most loyal fur companion once she warms up and gains your trust. All she needs is a committed family to welcome her home.
