Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Herman is in need of a forever home! We believe this loving 20lb pup to be a Shih Tzu mix around 1-2 years old. Herman is a little man with some baggage- he's pretty fearful and insecure, he needs a owner who can help guide him through life. Luckily, he's made amazing progress in his foster home and is learning how to safely navigate the world around him. He's ready for a permanent home to thrive!
Herman stats -
🐸His favorite pastimes include playing with stuffed toys, eating & following his foster mom around. He enjoys keeping a regular routine and will often remind you when it’s meal time, walk time, or time for his bedtime treat!
🐸Herman is very insecure. Understandable for a little boy who has had a inconsistent life! He needs a supportive, understanding owner who can help him explore new things and also give him time to decompress.
🐸Herman sees his caregiver as his sun & moon- he's incredibly affectionate and loving to his person, it's very sweet and hard to resist his sweet face! He's a bit of a velcro-dog and will follow you everywhere.
🐸Herman is very sensitive to handling and is touchy about his boundaries. His new owner needs to seek a fear-free groomer and vet who are willing to work with him, without over-stressing him. He is currently on an anti-anxiety medication, which we recommend his new owner keeping up on until he is properly established in his new home.
🐸Herman is enthusiastic, playful & quite food motivated. This means he’s incredibly trainable! He already knows sit, down, dance, and roll over. His love of treats also has helped him develop his leash manners!
🐸Herman does enjoy the company of other dogs, however, he’s like a sponge and soaks up all the traits of the pups around him regularly. A calmer dog around his size would be best for him.
🐸No kids or cats. Herman was returned to us because he was too fearful of the cats in the previous owners home.
🐸Shih Tzu’s are known for their loveable, quirky personalities, but can also be stubborn, demanding & unwilling to cooperate at times. If you love the Shih traits you will love Herman!
