Story
This is Loki, god of mischief! He is a 2 year old, 6 lb Shih Tzu mix, full of curiosity and personality. He likes to explore everything, but he also likes to cuddle with his people. He was extremely matted when he came to HT, so the groomer had to shave him. His hair is starting to grown back, and he will look more and more like a Shih Tzu mix. He loves to play with toys for his size and chew on bones. He is not scared of bigger dogs, and tries to take toys away from them, - luckily he's cute so they let him get away with it (most of the time). He is not shy in the least and is friendly with everyone he meets. He can be a little barky, so probably not a good candidate for apartment living. We think he would do okay with older (10 yrs+) kids, but he would do fine in an adult only household. He is still working on his manners (he will fly and plop into your lap with no warning) and he is working on house training. He is housebroken and sleeps through the night in his crate. Loki will have you laughing at his antics, and smiling at his friendly nature. Loki has heartworms because he was not kept on heartworm prevention. Humane Tomorrow will pay for his treatment with one of our partner vets, and the treatments have been very successful. If you are interested in Loki, please complete an application and one of our adoption counselors will contact you.

Story
Albert was a victim of a dog attack. It damaged one of his eyes to point of removal. He has also undergone surgery for liver shunt, a congenital issue that is now corrected. We also did a nip and tuck of his good eye to protect it from harm. Basically, he is better than new and looking for someone to love him as he deserves. For a puppy, he is NOT a crazy boy but does love to play with his toys. He will need continued socialization with other dogs and structure as all kids do to know what is desired behavior. Apply for this gorgeous pup at tzuzoorescue.com.

Smokey

Shih Tzu Lhasa Apso

Male, 1 yr 1 mo
PLANO, TX
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Cute as a Shih Tzu, independent as a Lhasa Apso. Smokey is a loving boy who wants to please and have a human to guide him in his life. As a young dog, he will need structure and guidance to be the best dog he can be. If allowed to do what he wants and be placed in a role of leader, he will act out under the pressure. Smokey is crate trained and must have a young, active player in the home. He is too much for aging pets. At this time, though he loves kids, we do not want him in a home with younger children. Experienced lhasa owners only. His adoption will include consultation with a trainer who has won the heart of Smokey due to her loving leadership and undestanding for the uncertainty he experienced in his early life.
