Molly is new to rescue. Molly is one and a half years old, 9 pound, female spayed, Shih-Tzu/Bichon Frise mix who lost her home as her owners were getting divorced, with the entire household being uprooted including a safe place for Molly. She was very attached to the female-mom-adult in the home and while she lived with the children, Molly prefers adults. This could be due to her tiny size and how quickly kids can move around her which makes her nervous. She would do great in a home where she can be a lap dog, or companion dog for a single/senior person as she loves human attention and will bond to her person quickly, once she find that person. Molly is spayed, up to date on vaccines and micro-chipped. She has not had any obedience training and would love to do this with her new family once established.
