Emma - Shih Tzu Dog for Adoption in Toledo, Ohio

Meet Emma!

Sweet little Emma is a 4-year-old Shih Tzu who has already been through more than any little dog should have to endure.

When Emma came to us, she was in rough shape-covered in fleas, dealing with an ear infection, and suffering from a massive ulcer in her eye. Thankfully, she is now in foster care where she can relax, heal, and get all the love she deserves.

And what a sweet girl she is! Emma is loving, affectionate, and just an all-around good girl. She does wonderfully with other dogs and kids, and we suspect she wouldn't mind having feline friends around either.

Emma is still working on her housebreaking, but she's already doing an excellent job using potty pads indoors, so she's definitely making progress!

Because Emma is currently in foster care, visits are available by appointment only. This sweet girl has spent enough time feeling uncomfortable, and now she's ready to find the loving forever home she's been waiting for.

If you're looking for a gentle little companion who just wants to love her people and be loved right back, Emma might be your girl.
