For inquiries email kathyb@compactcaninerescue.org Fee: $300 Location: Norfolk, VA Hi friends. I was adopted but returned because I could not get along with the cat! :( Things to consider when applying to adopt Farley: senior shih tzu/mini poodle mix 18-20 pounds VISUALLY IMPAIRED needs a fenced yard NO children - their sudden, unpredictable movements scare him does NOT like to be groomed (may require a shave down under sedation quarterly) he is tolerant of calm, social dog DOES NOT like cats Farley has been with our rescue for a few months now. He is a 20 pound, 10 year old, visually impaired, senior Shih Tzu/Mini-Poodle mix. He gets along well with the resident dogs in the home. He loves attention. Farley's ideal home would be an all adult, quiet home where he can roam a fenced yard to sniff and explore, eat his two meals daily and sleep as he pleases, where he pleases. He LOVES a soft fluffy, calming bed to lounge upon. He is basically looking to retire with his own butler/chambermaid! LOL Farley deserves better than he was given. Will you be his HERO?? **He is not a fan of grooming or nail clipping. **Absolutely NO children. While he is not aggressive towards them, he is visually impaired and does not understand a child's sudden movements.
