Meet Albany, a 1.5-year-old Shih-Poo who is serving understated elegance with a side of playful charm. At 14 pounds, she’s perfectly sized for lap lounging, light adventuring, and quietly stealing the spotlight without ever demanding it. Albany may sound like a capital city, but she runs her kingdom with gentle sweetness, not diva decrees.
She has a calm, quiet presence that makes you lean in instead of step back. While you might expect a fluffy little fashionista to come with dramatic flair, Albany decided that inner peace is far more stylish. She’s pretty without trying, social without being overwhelming, and affectionate without being clingy. It’s a subtle flex, really.
Don’t let the serene vibe fool you—Albany still has a playful spark and loves being part of the fun. She’s the kind of pup who will happily greet new friends, then settle in close for some quality cuddle time. Lovebug isn’t just a nickname; it’s a lifestyle.
Albany is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and has tested negative for heartworm and tick-borne diseases. If you’re looking for a sweet, steady companion who brings calm energy and quiet joy wherever she goes, Albany is ready to become the capital of your heart.
