Charlotte

Charlotte / F / 8Y / 17lbs / Shih Tzu / Fostered in Owen Sound 

Charlotte is a total sweetheart who thrives on love and attention; she'll happily curl up with you one minute and be ready for an adventure the next. She's a total joy on walks (she gets two "long" ones plus several shorter strolls a day). Just a heads up: she's got a prey drive and loves chasing rabbits and squirrels, so no off leash for this girl, unless it's in a securely fenced in yard. She has been left alone for up to 6 hours and did well. She is still working on her house training but has already made improvement in foster care (She usually goes out every 3 to 4 hours during the day, sleeps through the night). 

Charlotte does have some allergies and is currently on a food trial so she can only have hypoallergenic food. She is also on daily apoquel to help with her itchy skin and medicated baths a few times a week. She receives burrows ear drops to help prevent ear infections as well as optimmune eye drops for dry eye. Her medications cost approximately $200/month. 

Charlotte is cuddly, sometimes outgoing, and always up for whatever the day brings. She can be playful, relaxed, or calm depending on her mood. She's medium energy and a habit of whining when she wants your attention (which, let's be honest, is pretty cute). She's awesome with new people and does great with most other dogs (she prefers dogs close to her in size). She did live with cats in the past and would be fine with respectful children. She also does great in the car and is a good girl for bath time!
