Bibi (Bianca)

My story

YOU MUST HAVE AN APPROVED APPLICATION IN ORDER TO MEET OUR PETS. Meet BiBi – a charming little senior ready for her forever home! BiBi is a tiny Shih Tzu mix (possibly a ShihPoo), about 12 years old and just 7.5 pounds. She was found as a stray and rescued from the shelter with a large ulcerated mass, which has since been removed. She’s now recovering beautifully, is heartworm negative, and up to date on vaccines and preventatives. She eats enthusiastically despite some dental issues and is on a good senior supplement. Though she has limited hearing and vision, BiBi is very trainable—she’s extremely treat-motivated and 100% tolerant of handling, even by strangers. She may not hear or see well, but she’ll sniff out a snack instantly! She’s quiet, gentle, and would make a perfect shop dog or errand companion—happy to be held or rolled around in a cart, charming everyone she meets. She lives peacefully with two small dogs and might do best with a mellow canine companion or two in her forever home. BiBi sleeps in an open crate overnight, and while she’s mostly house trained, she occasionally has accidents if she can’t get out in time. She’s beginning to seek out companionship and affection but still enjoys having her own space. While her back legs can be unsteady, she’s stronger than when she arrived and moves around the house and yard comfortably at her own pace. She also enjoyed a recent beach visit—even when surprised by a boat wake! We’re thrilled to share that BiBi is partially sponsored by Vintage Fur Senior Dogs Inc! She’ll receive $600 annually in veterinary coverage for life. This can help cover medications, bloodwork, imaging, and more. Contact Loving Pet Project NC or visit vintagefur.org to learn more. BiBi is an easygoing, lovable companion looking for a calm retirement home with soft beds, good treats, and someone who understands senior pups. Fostered in Wilmington, NC. Adoption donation $200.
