HAZEL - SHIH TZU DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Shih Tzu. Adoption Fee: $400. Hazel is a very sweet yet cautious Shih Tzu who is adjusting to life as house pet. She is slowly warming up and has learned that chasing a ball through the yard or running through water on a hot day is a lot of fun. Hazel is crate trained and doing well in the house. With patience and consistency she is catching on quick. Her foster sister is showing her the ropes :) ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Physically fenced in yard to keep her safe - no invisible fences. Walking on a leash/harness is still a work in progress. Hazel would do best in a home with a confident resident dog to show her what being a dog is all about. *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.
