Grace is a beautiful Shih Tzu who’s looking for a quiet and patient family to help her feel safe and loved.
This gentle two-year-old is extremely nervous and needs a calm, understanding home to help her come out of her shell.
Grace is seeking an adult-only home with no other pets, a very secure garden, and direct access from the house.
She is a timid soul who needs plenty of time and space to adjust to her new surroundings.
Grace will require a dedicated area in the home, such as a kitchen with direct access to the garden, where she can stay as she builds her confidence.
It’s important for Grace to have an enclosed section of the garden while she settles in, as she isn’t ready to go on walks just yet.
Grace is still learning to trust people and is currently uncomfortable with being touched or stroked.
However, she’s making great progress in her foster home, and one of the keys to her heart is through play.
Grace adores her toys, and playing with her is a wonderful way to build a bond with her.
She needs an experienced owner who can provide the time, patience, and understanding she needs to thrive.
If you’re ready to offer Grace a safe and nurturing environment, she will reward you with her trust and companionship as she grows more comfortable in her new home.
For the right person, Grace will be an incredibly special addition to the family.
