Zoe, the Dog of the Day
Name: Zoe
Age: Three months old
Gender: Female Breed: Shih Tzu
Home: Shelby Township, Michigan, USA
 
   This is Zoe Madison "Pick-me-up." Zoe is definitely a puppy at heart. One of her favorite things to do is chew, on everything! Socks, shoes, pillows, blankets, leaves, rocks, furniture, blue jeans, she even tries to eat worms and leaves! She is fearless even though she only weighs a wee three pounds. When she's not chewing, or napping, (another of her preferred pastimes) she loves to play and cuddle. She is a great joy and helped our family through some very difficult events, including the sudden and unexpected death of our beloved nine-year-old Shih Tzu, Chloe. Our home was just not the same, and we decided that we needed to have another "baby" in the house.

    The "pick-me-up" in her name has a double meaning, first because she brings cheer to the family, and second, because she just looks at you with the sweetest little face that just screams "please! pick me up!" Zoe already thinks she's queen and shares her palace with her mom and dad and big sister, Ashley, when she's not away at college in Chicago. This little fireball is the center of attention and has a personality 100 times her size. We look forward to all the joy we know that she will continue to bring us for many years to come.
