Mindy and her buddy Peppy were surrendered due to their owner's health. Mindy has a nice temperment but is a little on the chunky side. She could use a little exercise and a diet. Mindy and Peppy have both lived with up to four cats their whole lives. Mindy would do well in a home with a laid back lifestyle or a senior couple/person.

Mindy qualifies for our senior for senior program. If adopted by a senior person (55+) her adoption fee is $100

Are you unfamiliar with the Shih Tzu breed? Pronounced SHEET-sue, they are known as alert, spunky, happy and hardy. They are bred with an underbite which gives them a constant "smile." Traditionally, their coat is kept long, with ears blending into the body, distinct mustache, and a top knot secured with a bow. However, in our Florida climate, many are clipped short to relieve them of the heat. An alert watch dog, Shih Tzus like to bark but are usually quiet in the house. Originally from China, they were a favorite of the Imperial Chinese court and so revered that for many years after the Chinese began trading with the West, they refused to sell, or even give away, any of the little dogs. It was not until 1930 that the first pair was imported to England. The life expectancy of Shih Tzus in 16 years.
