Description
Dog Breed: Shih Tzu (long coat). Adoption Fee: $400. KENNEL ID #18804 Romeo is a 7-year-old, 14-pound Shih Tzu who recently retired from a commercial breeding kennel. Unlike many dogs from his background, Romeo is a little more confident and enjoys coming over for gentle pets and attention. He’s still learning that people can be kind, and each day his personality continues to shine. Romeo would do best with a patient family that will help him adjust to life as a cherished companion instead of a breeding dog. He enjoys the company of other dogs and will need a confident canine companion in his new home to help him continue building confidence and learning what family life is all about. A quieter home without young children would be the best fit for Romeo. With love, patience, and another friendly dog by his side, this sweet little guy is sure to blossom into a wonderful companion. ❤️ Adoption Fee: $475 (includes neuter) Thank you for your interest in rescue. If you would like to be considered for adoption, please submit an application to adopt.

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.
