She hasn't met a person she didn't instantly adore, packing a whole bunch of love and character into her tiny 11-12 pound frame.
As a Shih Tzu, Amelie brings all the wonderful traits of her breed: she's affectionate, outgoing, and undeniably charming. Her friendly disposition makes her a fantastic companion for families and she's likely to thrive in a home with other canine friends.
