About DARBY

Adoption Fee: $150
Poodle / Shih Tzu
Age: Adult
Sex: Female

Meet Darby, your new shadow, snuggle buddy, and biggest fan ���� This sweet 6-year-old spayed female poodle-Shih Tzu mix has been through more than her fair share-but you'd never know it from her loving, gentle spirit. She came to us from the Maricopa County Animal Care and Control after being surrendered with an old, untreated jaw fracture. While the injury couldn't be repaired, it hasn't slowed her down one bit. She happily eats soft food, enjoys treats, and even entertains herself with toys and a good chew on a Nylabone. Mealtime looks a little different for her-she may occasionally regurgitate a small amount of liquid (about once a day), likely from swallowing extra air due to her jaw. The good news is it's very manageable: she does well with an elevated food dish and takes an inexpensive motility medication to help keep things moving comfortably. What truly defines her is her heart. She is incredibly affectionate and forms a deep bond with her person. She tolerates other dogs and cats, but if she had her way, she'd be your one and only-your constant companion, your bed buddy, your loyal little shadow. She just loves being close and doesn't like to share that special connection and will growl if another dog tries to interfere and also if the other dog wants to share her bed She's also had a recent dental cleaning, so she's fresh, healthy, and ready for her next chapter. Darby is fostering in Tempe so meet and greets will need to occur at or near her foster home If you're looking for a devoted, gentle, slightly quirky little dog who will adore you completely, she may be the perfect fit. She doesn't need perfection-just someone who will love her exactly as she is. Apply HERE ))) https://form.jotform.com/cherishedtails/dog-application
