Her Story 

Dakota is a 3-year-old Maltese x Shih Tzu. She found herself in our care through unfortunate circumstances. After her guardian passed away, she ended up with a relative who neglected her by leaving her in the yard for months. Fortunately, when another family member witnessed Dakota’s condition, the decision was made to surrender her. Despite her difficult past, Dakota is a kind-hearted dog. Initially shy, she may take some time to open up, but she gets along well with other small dogs, cats, and would likely be fine with respectful children. Despite her recent hardships, Dakota deserves a future brimming with happiness, and we firmly believe she will thrive in the loving embrace of a new family.

Her Sponsorship 

Dakota will need sponsoring for her daily care at the rescue, including for her food, housing, and medical care. Enrichment is also a very important part of her rescue journey, and she would love to receive care packages with toys and treats for comfort and for play. Bully sticks are especially great!
