Description
Dog Breed: Shih Tzu / Mixed (medium coat). Remember our first post about these three terriers? After the loss of a family member left them homeless, they were brought to the shelter. We had no idea what sex they were or their ages or breeds! The good news is, we have made friends with them, discovered they are about 18 months old, and have discovered they are all males! Thanks to Bry with Sit Pretty Grooming LLC for offering to take the three in and freshen them up this week, so they could more readily fostered! Turns out once they got on the grooming table, they were pretty easy clients, according to their groomers who worked extra hard to get them done! Tin-man is black and white, more like a Shih Tzu perhaps, and also is not house trained. He is also peeing on absolutely everything in the house, so a belly band is the only thing that is working well for him at this point as well. He is a follower, and if Lion is on an adventure, Tin-man wants to be right there. He is not quite as pushy, however, but he does enjoy laying on the bed, and watching TV from the sofa. We are hoping to have these guys sterilized in the next couple weeks so they will be ready to be adopted. In the meantime, their foster moms are working hard to teach them house manners, and routines. We will not be placing them in the same home, but feel they will do well with other nice dogs, and cats as well. we have not tested them with children yet. of three fuzzy little dogs came in to the shelter on Friday. We are getting to know them, and look forward to making friends, and introducing you to their needs and personalities. They are still chilling out and are not yet ready for handling. Their story: their owner passed away, and family members had no information or details on their sexes, names or ages. We are guessing they are terrier mixes, weighing about 20 pounds. Right now, they are finding comfort in being together, and we like to help dogs that are stressed at the shelter stay together in a family group initially. Canned food was welcomed last night, and we will offer yummy treats today. PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.
