RIP (RED COLLAR) - SHIH TZU DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Shih Tzu. Adoption Fee: $700. Rip is an adorable Shih Tzu puppy in search of his forever family. His foster mom says Rip is extremely playful and animated. He is the most outgoing out of the group and is always the first one to run over to you when called - the "leader of the pack". He is doing fabulous with his housetraining and is crate trained. ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Family with the time and patience required to properly train and socialize a puppy. Physically fenced in yard preferred. *All SFCR dogs are current on age-appropriate vaccinations (rabies, distemper, bordetella, and lepto), spayed/neutered (if at least 6 months of age), tested for heartworm & tick-borne disease, receive dentals if needed, are started on preventatives for heartworm and fleas/ticks, and microchipped. Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they may need extra time to adjust and settle in. Older children are often a great fit for our dogs, and family's with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may require a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly.
