My story

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

In addition to the following profile for this dog, please first read the Adoption Information at http://www.shihtzurescuemn.org/adopt.html to understand the process, requirements and timeline for adoption. An adoption application can also be found in the Adoption Info section. If, after reading that information, you have any questions, please submit your question via e-mail and it will be answered. Please do not request a phone call. A personal phone call will only be made when an adoption application has been submitted and the foster parent wishes to consider the application. Thank you!


Shih Tzu Rescue of MN has five adorable Shih Tzu/Poodle/Yorkie mix puppies who are now available for adoption. The puppies were born on October 9th. There are two female and 3 male puppies. Their mom Nova, along with their foster parents, has been taking excellent care of the pups and they are healthy and happy! All of the puppies are social, happy and playful.

Stevie does well with all his siblings. He knows how to be gentle with his siblings and can also handle the ones that are a bit more playful. Stevie is cuddly, playful and happy boy.

If you are interested in Stevie, please go to our website at shihtzurescuemn.org and fill out a puppy application. After you submit your application, we will contact you by email to confirm your application. If approved, your family will then be invited to a meet and greet to be held for approved applicants only.

Here are the adoption requirements for adoption of one of the puppies:

* Because Shih Tzus often live 16+ years, applications will only be considered from age appropriate individuals who will be able to provide the care and activity necessary for the rest of the dog’s life.

* A puppy’s new home could be an adults only home, but could also include children who have been around small dogs and have learned appropriate behavior with small dogs.

* A new family must commit to training their new puppy and providing opportunities for the puppy to become socialized to people and other dogs.

* Please keep in mind that when training a puppy they need to be able to go outside every 2 to 3 hours. So the new family must be able to initially accommodate this schedule until the puppy can be left for a longer period of time.

* Another small, playful dog in the home would be considered, but is not a requirement.

* Before adoption the puppies will have their puppy vaccines. The adoption contract will require you that have your new pup spayed or neutered and provide verification that it has been done.

* Must live within 40 miles of the Minneapolis and St Paul, MN area.

* The new family must be willing to keep in touch and follow up with Shih Tzu Rescue of MN. We also ask adopters to attend our rescue’s Rescue Reunion held in September each year.

The puppy’s adoption fee is $470.00 plus $40.07 sales tax. There is an additional spay/neuter deposit of $150.00 which will be refunded upon proof of the procedure. So the total amount due upon adoption is $660.07.
