Apollo is a six-year-old twelve-pound male Shih Tzu. He came into rescue because his owner didn’t have time to devote to him and he was unfortunately left alone all day. He is now enjoying his foster mom's attention, and is a very happy boy. Now he is receiving the attention he deserves, and now that he has also been spruced up a bit with a fresh, new haircut he is a very handsome boy. Apollo has one of the best personalities that his foster mom, the veterinarian and staff, and the groomer have ever seen. Everyone has commented on how well behaved and endearing he is. He's so pliable and just goes with the flow. He's fine to entertain himself as he just hangs out near his foster mom while she works from home. He often snuggles with his foster fur brother and respects that his older foster fur sister prefers to be on her own. He sleeps with his foster mom and the other dogs in her big bed. He enjoys his quiet time and will seek you out if he wants to snuggle, but he always wants to be nearby. He's just so adorable and sweet. Apollo eats very well and is house trained. In the colder winter days, he heads right out to his foster mom's fenced yard, does his business, and then heads right back in to stay warm. He enjoys his walks on the leash and loves exploring, but gets cold quickly, so he doesn’t like to stay out for very long. He sometimes stays home while the foster siblings go for a walk because he's just too cold, and he does not mind being alone for a while and makes himself comfortable inside. He often wears a sweater indoors to stay warm. These are the requirements for Apollo’s new family: 1. Someone who is home much of the day. Apollo has been neglected and alone for all of his life, and he deserves to be in a family where that won’t happen again. 2. A family with children over the age of ten will be considered if the children have had experience in appropriate interaction with a small dog. But he is not accustomed to a home with lots of activity and a quiet home is an absolute must for him. 3. A home with another small dog would be okay, but Apollo would also love to be the center of his family’s life and get plenty of attention. 4. Must live within 75 miles of New Brighton, MN. 5. Family is encouraged to attend the Shih Tzu Rescue Reunion held each year in September. Apollo is current on vaccinations, microchipped and on heartworm and flea/tick preventative. He will be neutered and have a dental with extractions on March 12th. Applications are being accepted now for his adoption, but he cannot go to his new home until all medical procedures are completed and he has recovered. Apollo's adoption fee is $370.00 plus $33.39 sales tax for a total of $403.39. To meet Apollo, please complete an adoption application at the website listed in the first paragraph. Or you can also see him and the other dogs available for adoption from Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota by visiting with us from 10:00 AM to 12:00 noon the first Saturday of every month at the Southtown PetCo in Bloomington, MN

Peanut is a 10 pound, five year old male Shih Tzu mix who was surrendered to rescue because his owner could no longer properly care for him due to lack of time. He has been SUCH a joyful addition to our rescue. Peanut is VERY cuddly and loves to be the center of your attention. He will spend the majority of his day cuddled up next to you or following you around. He does love to play fetch with smaller, fluffy toys and does great on a leash. While he is currently fostered with another larger dog, Peanut would probably prefer to be the only dog in your house. Mainly because if he sees you giving attention to another dog, then he will come right up and try to steal that attention to himself! He prefers to be right by your side, does great on car rides and absolutely LOVES meeting new people. Seriously, he's never met a stranger. He has a good recall with his name, and we are working on sit and other typical commands. He currently goes outside about 4-6 times a day, and is pretty good about informing you if it's time for him to go out. He does have a tendency to mark in carpeted areas if other pets have marked there, otherwise he is pretty well housetrained. He loves his foster parents’ fenced in yard, but he wants you out there with him and you will have to encourage him to go potty some of the time! Peanut is a younger, active little man who wants to be your whole world. He loves to be around you and play fetch at least 3 times per day. We are hoping his new family will be able to be home with him for the majority of the day and also find a family that will include him and make it a priority that he can join all activities. - Following are the requirements for Peanut's new family: Peanut is still a young dog. 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 his life. A family who can be home with Peanut for much of the day for companionship and also to enable him to go outside regularly. - Peanut is not high energy, but he still needs a family that can provide appropriate mental and physical stimulation for him. This includes daily walks and providing training, activity and the stimulation needed for a dog of his age. - It is unknown how Peanut is with children. Applications will be considered if children are over the age of ten and have had previous experience interacting gently with a small dog. ·A secure fenced yard would be great, but is not a deal breaker as long as Peanut can have other means of outdoor activity. · Peanut could live with other pets, as long as they mostly ignored him. But he probably would prefer to be an only dog who could have your undivided attention. · Live within 40 miles of Coon Rapids, MN. · Agree to attend the annual Shih Tzu Rescue Reunion held in September each year. Peanut is neutered, current on vaccinations, microchipped, and on heartworm and flea/tick preventative. He is scheduled to have a dental on March 17th, but applications are being accepted now for his adoption. His adoption fee is $370.00 plus $33.39 sales tax, for a total of $403.39. To meet Peanut, please complete an adoption application at the website listed in the first paragraph.

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! Wait till you meet Big B! He is a charming 5 year-old, white and tan male Shih Tzu. He is chill, sweet, and will melt your heart. He is extremely gentle and mild-mannered and enjoys meeting new people. His foster family LOVES all the cuddles he gives! He is a very snuggly lap dog who spends most of his time indoors, but also walks beautifully on a leash for short walks. He enjoys some playtime and companionship with other small dogs. A fenced backyard would be great, but not a deal breaker, as long as his family will commit to giving Big B time to play outside as needed. He knows a few basic commands, and his foster parents are helping him learn a bit more. He is very eager to please, and it would be great if his new family will continue with his basic training. He is fully house-trained, listens well, and does not beg for people food! Big B is very bonded to people and needs a family that is home much of the day. He also needs to sleep in bed with his family, which is a MUST! He will do well with another small dog, as he was used to one in his previous home, but he would be okay being the sole focus of attention too. These are the requirements for Big B’s new family: 1. Must be home most of the day (gone no more than 2-3 hours at a time) and include Big B in their daily activities, and taking him with them in appropriate situations. 2. An adults only home, or a family with children over the age of ten who have experience in gently interacting with a small dog. 3. Must welcome Big B to sleep in bed at night with his family. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST. 4. Will give him adequate outdoor exercise, including short daily walks and hopefully a fenced yard where he can freely explore without being on a leash. 5. Agree to NEVER USE A RETRACTABLE LEASH. Using a retractable leash violates the adoption contract. 6. Live within 60 miles of Saint Paul, MN. 7. Commit to attending the Shih Tzu Rescue Reunion held each year in September. We hope you don’t find these requirements to be restrictive. If you understand the reason for having requirements and accept them, then you may be the family for Big B! He is just a delightful, loving boy who will bring a special family many years of joy and happiness. Big B is current on vaccinations, microchipped, and on heartworm and flea/tick preventative. He is scheduled to be neutered on March 5th but will be available for adoption after a short recovery period in his foster home. Applications are being accepted now for his adoption. His adoption fee is $370.00 plus $33.39 sales tax for a total of $403.39. To meet Big B, please complete an adoption application at the website listed in the first paragraph. Or you can also see him and the other dogs available for adoption from Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota by visiting with us from 10:00 AM to 12:00 noon the first Saturday of every month at the Southtown PetCo in Bloomington, MN.
