Description
Dog Breed: Shih Tzu. Cafe Mocha is a charming and beautiful little girl, who has captured all of our hearts here at the rescue. She is very sweet, friendly and easy going, and just a delight to be with. Cafe Mocha enjoys all the cuddling and affection she receives, and becomes brighter and happier each day. She also enjoys leash walks and she gets along with other dogs. Cafe Mocha is a Shih Tzu, about 7 years old and 11 pounds. We are currently treating her for bladder stones, which we discovered upon her arrival. We are attempting to dissolve the stones with a prescription diet and medication. If this is not successful, she will have surgery. This absolutely adorable sweetheart deserves the best life going forward. If she has captured your heart, and you believe you are a good match for her, please put in an application today and call Harriet at 954-680-6456.

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.
