Description
Dog Breed: Shih Tzu (medium coat). Meet Sugar and Johnny! Rescued from an overcrowded shelter where their lives were at risk, these two sweeties are settling into their foster home wonderfully. Johnny is around 6 years old and Sugar is 3. They are very bonded and we would like to find them a home together. Johnny and Sugar are the sweetest companions you could ever ask for. Within hours of being in their foster home, they were hopping into laps to get love and attention! They are happiest playing with their squeaky toys; Johnny loving to play fetch with them, while Sugar entertains herself by squeaking away joyfully. After play time and walks, they love cuddling up to their people for a nice quiet nap, and they nap hard- you’ll love to hear the cute snores! They are bonded tightly and love to walk together, play together, and sleep together (or on top of each other). They are crate trained at night for sleep, and know how to pee on pee pads if left alone and can’t hold it, but we are working on some potty manners that they’re already getting the hang of! Johnny and Sugar really attach to their people, and would probably be best in a home with no other dogs so they could share your undivided dog love! Johnny and Sugar are vaccinated, microchipped and fixed. Both had a dental as well and Sugar had a small growth removed from above her eye (benign). Their combined adoption fee is $600 We cover the medical to prepare the pet for adoption and the adopt donations go directly to cover those costs and range from $295-$495. Thank you for stepping up to save a life! To expedite to meet with this dog, please go to our site at .savinggreatanimals and fill out an application. We look at the first applications to arrive, so we hope to hear from you soon!

Breed overview
Shih Tzu
A.K.A.: Lion Dog, Chrysanthemum Dog, Foo Dog, Xi Shi dog, Tibetan Temple Dog, Chinese Imperial Dog, Lhasa Lion Dog, Shitzu, Schipperke, Tzu, Shih Tzu Kou, Kou
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.
