Description
Dog Breed: Shih Tzu. Marnie is a bright, happy little Shih Tzu girl. She is about 3 years old and 11 pounds. Marnie loves to be with people and is very sweet and friendly. She enjoys snuggling and affection, but also likes to romp around in the yard and go for leash walks. This little cutie has an adorable, playful side and enjoys toys and silly hand games. Marnie has been at the rescue for several months. She has adjusted nicely to being around the other dogs and enjoys playtime in the yard with her new pals. Marnie’s tongue sticks out for no fault of her own, as she was born with a small jawbone. She is a healthy, delightful, young girl, but she keeps getting passed by for our more “perfect “ looking Shih Tzus. Please give this wonderful girl a chance to share her love and bring her happy ways into your home. Please watch the video at the end of the photos to see more of sweet Marnie.

Overview:
The Shih Tzu, affectionately known as the "lion dog," boasts an ancient and regal lineage, originating from the Tibetan plateau and further refined in imperial China. These charming canines are easily recognized by their striking appearance: a small, sturdy build, a distinctive undershot jaw, and a long, flowing double coat that often requires regular grooming to prevent matting. Temperamentally, Shih Tzus are renowned for being affectionate, outgoing, and playful companions, making them wonderfully suitable for a variety of households. Their adaptable and generally good-natured disposition means they often thrive in families with children and are particularly well-suited for apartment living due to their modest exercise requirements. While generally robust, potential owners should be aware of common breed-specific health concerns, including respiratory issues (due to their brachycephalic, or "smushed" face), eye conditions, and luxating patella. Despite these considerations, a Shih Tzu typically brings immense joy and companionship to their devoted owners.
