Description
Dog Breed: Shih Tzu. Caylee is just beginning to trust people and allow herself to experience all the goodness that comes with that. She came from a tragic home, where she never received human love or anything close to proper care. Each day, Caylee is relaxing more and more, and embracing all the love and care she is receiving. She already has learned to love being petted, and how good it feels to have a clean, well groomed face gently rubbed. Caylee is also learning to have fun playing and running free in the fresh air in the yard. Caylee is an adorable, little Shih Tzu girl, about 3 years old and 11 pounds. After a few months at the rescue, Caylee’s true personality has emerged and it is fantastic. This little cutie is happy, bright, playful and enjoying her time with everyone, including the other dogs. Please watch the video, at the end of the photos, to see Caylee’s wonderful transition and how adorably she plays with her buddy Benjie, (who is also available for adoption and could be adopted with Caylee.). If you believe you are a great match for Caylee, please put in an application today.

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.
