Here's what the humans have to say about me:
In addition to the following profile for this dog, please first read the Adoption Information at http://www.shihtzurescuemn.org/adopt.html to understand the process, requirements and timeline for adoption. An adoption application can also be found in the Adoption Info section. If, after reading that information, you have any questions, please submit your question via e-mail and it will be answered. 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!
Rocky is a happy 10 year old male Shih Tzu who weighs about 18 pounds. He is always in a happy mood; and is just a cuddle bug. He especially enjoys looking out the window, watching the world go by, so a couch or chair near a window would be perfect for a lookout spot. He is housetrained if kept on a frequent, regular schedule and he loves to go on short walks. The ideal home for Rocky would be where someone was home all or most of the day. And he would appreciate being able to sleep with his people in their bed. He enjoys being with children 10+ years of age, but is not good with young kids or toddlers. He is good with most small dogs, but would probably like to be the only dog in the house. He really just wants to be with his people, and be wherever they are. He should definitely not be put in a kennel. He is the perfect, loving companion!
Rocky is healthy, neutered, current on vaccinations, is microchipped and on heartworm and flea/tick preventative. His adoption fee is $120.00 plus $8.73 sales tax for a total of $128.73. His foster mom would like his adopters to live within 50 miles of the Twin Cities and encourage them to attend the annual Shih Tzu Rescue Reunion.
To meet Rocky, please complete an adoption application. 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 1:00 PM at the Minnetonka Petco near Ridgedale the last Saturday of every month
