Description

Dog Breed: Shih Tzu. Meet Penny! 6-year-old Shih Tzu | Bonded Pair – Must Be Adopted with Pete Penny has big black-cat type energy — super sweet, a little sassy, and fully confident in her own charm. She enjoys her alone time and will happily do her own thing… until she decides it’s time for attention, at which point you are officially her person. Her signature sassy waddle only adds to her diva appeal. Penny is very bonded to her brother, Pete. They’ve been together since birth and find comfort in being side by side — whether walking together or snuggled up for naps. Because of this deep bond, Penny must be adopted with Pete. She is mostly indifferent to other dogs and cats and truly doesn’t mind people, but she prefers to warm up at her own pace before becoming your loyal little bestie. Crate trained Potty trained Penny would thrive in a calm, loving home that appreciates her independent streak, her sweet moments, and the special bond she shares with Pete.

Shih Tzu

A.K.A.: Lion Dog, Chrysanthemum Dog, Foo Dog, Xi Shi dog, Tibetan Temple Dog, Chinese Imperial Dog, Lhasa Lion Dog, Shitzu, Schipperke, Tzu, Shih Tzu Kou, Kou
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.
