polly pocket

Looking for a sweet, low-maintenance friend? Look no further than POLLY POCKET! Life hasn’t always been kind to Polly, but this girl hasn’t let that dim her hope. Polly was found as a stray in the Bronx, and was quickly scooped up for some TLC. After a fresh haircut, spay, dental cleaning, and LOTS of chicken, she’s eager to meet the forever family she was always meant to have!

Polly is an easy-going 13-year-old, 12lb. Shih Tzu who appreciates the simple things in life, and happy to go with your flow. She loves hanging out in her dog bed, patrolling her foster home for undiscovered snacks, and going on leisurely neighborhood walks and sniffing what the world has to offer. She enjoys snuggling up for a nap with you, and is one of those dogs that, while quiet, has a sweet, happy presence that grows on you. You can’t help but love her. And snacks are the way to her heart.

Polly sleeps soundly through the night in her dog bed without a peep. She has no separation anxiety and would be fine with someone who was out for periods of the day. She allows handling from everyone. She doesn’t care who leashes her up and walks her. She is happy to be picked up and carried around if needed, and she’s easy to bathe. Polly gets along great with other dogs and would be equally fine living as a solo dog or with other dogs. She is currently in a home with a Shih Tzu, and with her previous foster, she lived with 2 chihuahuas plus other dog guests. She is tolerant of various dog personalities and takes cues well. If a dog barks at her or gets grabby with an item/food, she will walk the other way. Polly is unfazed about dogs on the street, and we’re pretty sure Polly would be fine with a cat given her chill personality.

Polly is super efficient at doing her business outside and will use wee wee pads indoors.

Oh and shedding? Virtually non-existent.

Polly isn’t just for the senior dog lovers out there! She would be an excellent companion for someone who is simply looking for a low-key, low-maintenance, and endearing little friend. Could you be the forever home she’s waiting for?
