Shih Tzu Dogs Available for Adoption in Jersey City, New Jersey

Marshmellow is a 4-year-old Shih Tzu mix looking for her furrever home!

Marshmellow wants to spend as much of her time as possible on top of her family, trying to do nothing else but cuddle up with her favorite people! She loves to be picked up and coddled, and she doesn’t have a problem walking by your feet until she gets some attention. She’s friendly with everyone she meets and always tries to introduce herself directly, especially with taller people that can help her get a better lay of the land. Once she’s on a lap, she tends to stay there, so it’s a good thing she’s the perfect size to fit comfortably on anyone! Marshmellow would be a perfect fit for anyone that works from home or someone retired looking for a teddy bear of a furry friend to watch movies with!
