Cindy Lu is the sweetest, one year old, 12 pound Shih Tzu mix with beautiful white silky soft hair. Her life is all about playing with toys. She loves to take the toys out of the toy box, carry them to her rug to play with, and always surrounds herself with her toys. She has not quite figured out the concept of fetch and is very confused why her foster mom would throw the toy AWAY from her! She enjoys standing on the arm of the couch and watching out the window. Cindy Lu is a cuddle bug and loves to sit on your lap or near you for a good belly rub. For a one year old dog, she’s actually quite mellow. However she does get the zoomies after going out for her morning potty. She would love an interactive doggie playmate but could also do well as an only dog. She’s working on potty training and seems to like going in a safe, small potty area in the yard as opposed to eliminating while on walks. She thinks walks are for entertainment only! She would do best with a family who is home most of the day and who will include her in their daily activities. Cindy Lu is such a good puppy who deserves a perfect home and family. In order to ensure that, here are the requirements that her foster mom requires for her new family:
1. Because Cindy Lu is only one year old and Shih Tzu’s often live 16+ years, applications will only be considered from age appropriate individuals who will be able to provide the care and activity she needs for the rest of her life.
2. Cindy Lu would like an active family/owner that will walk her daily, be home most of the day, and make her a part of their everyday life. 3. She would enjoy a home with another small dog who will help her learn by being a role model and friend. However, she would also do well as an only dog.
4. A family that works from home or is home most of the day would be ideal for her.
5. An active, adults only family is preferred, although a family with children over the age of ten will be considered based upon the children’s experience with a small dog.
6. Cindy Lu will definitely want to sleep in bed with her new family as she loves to cuddle and be close to her people. 7. Her new family should live within the 30 miles of Shoreview, MN and commit to attending the annual Shih Tzu Rescue Reunion held each September.
We understand these are specific requirements for Cindy Lu’s new family. But if they describe you, you will have abundant joy with this cute, funny, special girl.
Cindy Lu is spayed, current on vaccinations, microchipped and on heartworm and flea/tick preventative. Her adoption fee is $420.00 plus $35.81 in sales tax for a total of $455.81.
