Description
Dog Breed: Shih Tzu. Hi my name is Andi. I'm a 10 pound, 2 1/2 year old Shih Tzu. I was in a pretty bad place in Texas, but I walked away. A rescue person found me and was helping me. I had a very bad eye that was being treated. Another dog attacked me and my eye had to be removed, but I get around very well! I was low positive for heartworm and I went through treatment for it. I get along with other dogs, it just takes a bit. After I see they won't hurt me I'm good. I'm okay with cats but I do like to chase them but only for fun. I am good with children. It's best if they are older, as I am a little nervous at first until I get to know you. I walk pretty good on a leash. I would prefer a fenced in yard but not required. I'm working on potty training and doing good. I will go to the door but I don't bark. I am crate trained, spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. My adoption fee is $300.00.

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.
