Description
Dog Breed: Shih Tzu. ***NOT ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS YET***COMING SOON*** Hi, my name is Tobby, I am a friendly happy soul, looking for my forever family. I would really like a home where someone is home most of the time, as I have a little fear of being alone, and I like to know someone is close. My favorite place is right beside my foster mom, soaking up affection and curling up for cuddles. I get along good with other dogs, I do well with the dog savvy cat in my foster home, I am not sure about small children, as my foster fam has older kids. I walk nicely on leash and I really like wandering around the backyard sniffing all the new scents I can. I am currently working on some manners and commands. I absolutely love to snuggle and I enjoy my bedtime cookie (soft ones of course) Thanks for reading! I hope to meet you soon. *located in Cobourg

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.
