Meet Pierre! This 10-lb Shih Tzu is just 1 year old. Pierre is a quirky guy who is looking for a family who will love him as much as he will love them.
- General Behavior: Pierre is the cutest little tripod. He has a non-functional front leg does not slow him down one bit. This affectionate fellow will greet you with an enthusiastic wiggle when you come home before settling in for snuggles and playtime.
- Likes & Dislikes: Pierre loves toys: the more, the merrier! He also loves food, perhaps a little too much. He is very food-motivated.
- Training: Pierre is practicing his manners and has the makings of a little gentleman. He is working on his housetraining. He walks well on a leash and tolerates car rides. He also sleeps in the people bed at night.
- Medical: Pierre is a healthy boy! He is currently taking PetTinic for iron, but long term he will probably only need his monthly flea and heartworm preventatives.
- Other Animals: A home where Pierre would be the only dog is needed. He mostly ignores his fosters’ cat, although he gave a half-attempted chase it one time.
- Children: This boy would do best in a home with older and respectful kids.
- Home: Pierre can be rather anxious if left alone and will bark and howl. Therefore, he needs to be in a single family home where someone is around more often than not. He would also be safer in a home without stairs, and if there is a pool he needs to be protected from it.
- Grooming: As a Shih Tzu, Pierre will need regular grooming (about every 6-8 weeks) to keep him looking and feeling his best.
- Overall: Pierre is a sweet little guy who needs a family who will accept his quirks and love him just the way he is.
Could Pierre bring the “ooh la la” factor your life has been missing? Then visit our website www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org where you will find the application to adopt. You’ll be put in contact with the foster family for more information if it’s a potential match. He is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and neutered, and he has just had his teeth cleaned. His adoption donation is $300.
