My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

daily walk and plenty of interactive playtime. Her family must be able and willing to provide this for her every day.

2. A small, playful dog of equal energy would be great for Bella. She enjoys playing with another dog and thoroughly enjoys other canine companionship.

3. A fenced yard would be a bonus, but is not a deal breaker. Because Bella loves to run and explore, she would enjoy a secure area in which to do so under supervision.

4. A family who is home much of the day and will include her in their daily activities. Bella attaches easily to her people and just wants to be with them.

5. An adults only family; children over the age of ten who understand how to interact gently with a small dog will be considered.

6. A family who will understand, be patient, and continue helping Bella with her house training. She is doing well while in foster care, but it is not guaranteed that she will be housetrained when she is adopted.

7. Adoptive family should live within 45 miles of the Twin City area so Bella’s foster mom can schedule a home visit.

8. Adoptive family must commit to attend the Shih Tzu Rescue Reunion of Minnesota held in September each year.

Bella will be available for adoption near the end of November due to necessary upcoming surgeries. But applications for adoption are being accepted now. She is scheduled to be spayed November 11th. She is currently in heat, so her spay had to be postponed for two months for medical safety. At the time of her spay she will also have her left cherry eye repaired. as a red, swollen mass on the lower eyelid near the nose resembling a cherry. The official name is a prolapse of the third eyelid gland.

To meet Bella, please complete an adoption application at the website listed in the first paragraph. Or you can also see her and the other dogs available for adoption from Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota by visiting with us from 10:00 AM to 12:00 noon the first Saturday of every month at the Southtown PetCo in Bloomington, MN
