Shih Tzu : : Male (neutered) : : Adult : : Small
Leroy is a handsome little Shih Tzu who came to SFCR after being released from a commercial breeding facility. Leroy mingles well with the other dogs in his foster home and is crate trained. He is working hard on his housetraining and doing really well but does wear a belly band in the house to help remind him not to mark. He is learning to really enjoy toys and has even started to play with the other pups. Leroy will need someone willing to give him the time he needs to acclimate and feel safe.

More about LeroyGood with Dogs, Good with Cats, Good with Older/Considerate Kids Only *All SFCR dogs are current on age-appropriate vaccinations (rabies, distemper, bordetella, and lepto), spayed/neutered (if at least 6 months of age), tested for heartworm & tick-borne disease, receive dentals if needed, are started on preventatives for heartworm and fleas/ticks, and microchipped. Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they may need extra time to adjust and settle in. Older children are often a great fit for our dogs, and family's with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may require a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly. |
