 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-23-00047Sammie (female)
We call her Sammie, a very sweet shih tzu free to a good home. She's low maintenance and has no behavioral issues to speak of. She loves people, kids and other dogs (we have three others in our home she's made friends with). She was found on the street, and her original owner was never found. We took her in and have had her for a couple of years now. Unfortunately, we are moving and can not keep her in our new house. It makes us extremely sad to lose her, but if you can provide a great, loving home for her, there will be no re-homing fee. Will also provide her doggie bed and blanket. Serious inquiries only, please. Text Stacy at ... (Read More)(661)808-3578 between 11am-8pm. (Less) Kern County Bakersfield, CA MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-10-00206Leo (male)
Meet Leo! This cute fellow is half Lhasa Apso and half Shih Tzu. He enjoys walks, and loves to snuggle up with his people! He is healthy, neutered, and has a gorgeous coat due to regular grooming visits. Since he can get overwhelmed with a lot of activity or act even a little protective of his people, he would probably do best in a family without young kids. His family is hoping to find him a nice forever home, as a change in their living circumstances means they can no longer keep him. Redwood City, CA 94061 MAP IT!

| PIease Read Before Adopting a Shih Tzu in California | |||||||||
Shih Tzu Dogs can make good pets in California if they match your IifestyIe. The Shih-Tzu is a toy breed similar to the Pekingese. Shih-Tzus are proud little dogs and loaded with personality. Shih-Tzus are gentle and do fine with children who are taught to respect the dogs. Shih-Tzus bark to announce people approaching their homes. Shih-Tzus need early obedience training and may require patience when housebreaking. A Shih-Tzu will do just fine in an apartment if it gets enough exercise.
