Heartbreaking: Owner named her ‘Princess’ but surrendered her to overcrowded shelter at 16 years old

Who can help Princess? On Tuesday afternoon, August 12, the 16-year-old dog was surrendered to the Carson Shelter in Carson, California. Her brief video clip shows her amazingly calm, but she looks around and seems to be very unsure of her surroundings.

How frightened and disoriented she must have felt when her owner left her?

Here’s her video as she was surrendered:

Located At: Los Angeles County Animal Control – Carson

Her name is Princess.

I am described as a female, brown and white Terrier

Age: The shelter thinks I am about 16 years old.

More Info: I have been at the shelter since Aug 12, 2025.

Princess weighs 12-pounds and looks very much like a Pekingese mix. She is being kept in the medical section of the shelter, and she really needs someone to step up and comfort her.

Please share her plight with approved rescued organizations, friends, family and social media contacts. Sharing saves lives.
