Story
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. ##2161084##

Story
Hello . . . My name is Sylvie!  I am an affectionate two-year-old Shih Tzu gal who weighs just over 11 lbs.   I’m currently looking for a place to call “home sweet home."   I hope you enjoy reading more about me and "fall" in love.  General Behavior:  Sylvie is a loving and kissy girl.  She can be described as an enthusiastic pup who is very extroverted and a social butterfly. She is curious, clever, and playful.  She can also be independent and is fine doing her own thing at times. Likes & Dislikes: Sylvie would say that chasing lizards would be at the top of her list of fun things to do.  She loves her toys and her antlers.   Training: Sylvie is housetrained if let out on a regular, consistent schedule.  She has good basic manners, walks well on a leash but gets excited when she sees other dogs and tends to bark at them and also at vehicles. Her foster mom is working on this. Slyvie tolerates car rides but will whine if she can't sit in the front seat next to you.  Medical: Sylvie is a healthy pup and will just require her monthly heartworm and flea prevention, like any other dog. Other Animals: Sylvie has experience with calm, laid-back dogs and would do ok with another smaller furry friend.  She does not like big dogs, so would not be able to be in a home with a larger dog. She would also be just as content to be the only pup in your life.  She does not have experience with cats, so we are unsure how she would react to them. Children: While in our care, Sylvie has not been around children.  Because she does not like to be grabbed, small children would not be good fit with Sylvie.  A home with older, respectful children (10 and older), would be appropriate, but should be supervised by the grown-ups in the home. Home: Snuggly Sylvie would do better in a single family home because if she hears neighbors in the next apartment, she will bark. In her foster home, she has free reign of the home.  She will happily join you on the couch for cuddles and shower you with unconditional love.  After a long day of play and cuddles, she will get her beauty rest.  Sylvie prefers to snuggle in the bed with her humans.  Grooming:  Sylvie is a shih tzu who will require professional grooming approximately every 8-10 weeks.  The cost of grooming should be considered by her potential adopter. In between, she will need at-home spa days for nail trims and bathing. Overall: If you are looking for a smaller pup who will offer love, wiggles and snuggles, Sylvie may be the one for you! Are you the one for Sylvie?  Please visit our website, www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org where you will find the application to adopt.  You’ll be put in contact with her foster family if it’s a potential match.  Sylvie is fully vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped.   Her adoption donation is $525. ##2161089##

Story
Neya is a sweet, 15-year old dog who I’ve had since she was 10 weeks old. I received her from a family friend and she’s been my heart since. I have made the difficult decision to rehome her because I have a baby now and she is getting harder to care for. She needs more attention than I am able to give and she deserves a family that will give her the time and attention she deserves.
