Description
Posted Breed: Shih Tzu / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Leo!! Leo is a 14-year-old Shih Tzu Poodle Terrier mix. He is energetic and loving, and his favorite pastimes are being pets, cuddling on your lap, or napping in his bed. He loves the outdoors and will romp around your yard, and has good leash manners - he is not reactive on a leash but as his hearing has gone, we have limited on-leash interaction with neighborhood dogs for his comfort. He is getting a little sore after longer walks now that he is older, so short walks will be great, as well as any assisted outdoor time like bike basket/carrier rides, dog strollers, or as a sidecar companion. He is healthy but has some normal signs of aging - his hearing is starting to go, so he may not hear you come home, but he will be so excited once he sees you come in. Like many older dogs, he's got a couple of aging teeth and can occasionally get a benign bump, but has no long-term health issues as of writing. He knows basic commands, and we are trying to reinforce them with hand signals as his hearing is getting worse. He is used to at-home positive reinforcement training and loves treats. He has no bad manners, although his mom was a cook so he does like to hang out in the kitchen, right where she liked him to be - so he may like to hang with you while you are cooking and eating too. Leo's mom passed away from cancer in January, and his dad can no longer keep caring for him, as well as their local child currently living in no-dog housing, so he is looking for a comfortable place to live out his golden years. His local family is sad that this transition is necessary, but they are happy to help with walks and playtime or to housesit for him if you ever need them to, as they'd love to stay in touch as much as you are comfortable. Because he is almost deaf, he can be startled by rough handling, so he is a better fit for a family with older children and adults. He has been boarded with friends in the past and gets along with other small dogs, but has not been in a situation with cats or larger dogs for extended periods prior. He loves all people, and also has been professionally groomed with Clementine grooming, and takes both at-home and professional grooming well.
