My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Chico is a 7 yr old male Shih Tzu and weighs 11 lbs. He came from a home where he was neglected because the owner decided he didn't want to care for him anymore. No one seem to have time for this little guy and he was just pretty much tethered outside when the weather was nice and kind of forgotten. When he came into rescue he was in dire need of a groom and as you can tell he was a diamond in the rough. His before and after pictures show that. Chico was not trusting at first but within a couple of days he became very trusting and is very affectionate. He gets along with other dogs, but NOT good with cats. Because we don't really know his history with children we won't place Chico with young kids.
He needs support with his house training but has improved the short time that he's been in foster care.
His true personality has not yet been revealed but he has begun to cuddle and loves when you call his name. Chico loves attention and a warm lap.
Chico is being fostered in Scarborough.
Chico was neutered and recently had his broken dew claws removed. He is up to date on his vaccines and ready for his new home.

Adoption fee is $350
