Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Detroit- one of our three Midwest-named pups rescued from the Kankakee County Animal Control! Detroit came from a severe animal hoarding situation where he never truly learned how to be a dog or was given much attention. Now that he's with New Leash and thriving in a foster home (with a doggy brother), Detroit is ready to find a safer, more loving forever home.
Detroit is a 3 year old shih tzu weighing in at around 10lbs. He has a big heart for those around him. He loves to cuddle, and can be frequently found in the arms of his foster parents. When you pick him up, he just melts in to you until he is nice and secure.
His fosters reports back that he does wonderfully with his dog brother. He loves to follow him around on walks and is slowly learning how to play and interact with him. They also note that he is quite and calm, and he loves hanging out in his crate. They are slowly working on potty training with him, but he is doing great and should be fully trained in no time with a patient and calm guide.
