Shih Tzu/Mixed Breed · NYC Second Chance Rescue
10 years · Female · Brooklyn, NY
Meet Nugget.
Nugget is an adorable Shih Tzu with the sweetest personality. She was lovingly surrendered when her owner could no longer provide the care she deserved, and now she's searching for a family to call her own.
This gentle little girl is friendly, affectionate, and happiest when she's surrounded by people who love her. She's taking all of life's recent changes in stride and is ready to start her next chapter with a family that will cherish her forever.
Nugget doesn't need much, just a warm lap, a loving home, and someone who will promise she'll never have to wonder where she belongs again.
Could that someone be you? Adopt Nugget and give this precious girl the happy ending she deserves.
All dogs will be altered, microchipped, and receive age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption.

Mixed-breed dogs pull traits from several lines, which often means fewer breed-linked health problems and a temperament best judged by meeting the dog. What the foster or shelter observed day to day is far more predictive than any breed guess.
Depends on the individual. A daily walk plus play is the baseline; ask the foster how the dog behaves after a quiet day.
Mixes are often excellent city dogs. Building breed restrictions are usually enforced on what a dog looks like, so ask the rescue how the dog is typically identified.
