Here's what the humans have to say about me:
BING IS IN A FOSTER HOME AND WILL NOT BE AT THE SHELTER, SO PLS FILL OUT THE APPLICATION ONLINE FOR A PRIVATE APPOINTMENT. Bing is 8 yrs young and weighs just a smidge over 17 lbs. He’s super sweet, affectionate, gentle, very calm and laid back and loves to just hang out -- his favorite place to nap is in the laundry basket. He loves people. He’s good with dogs and we think he would be good with cats - but he definitely prefers to interact with people. Bing came from a hoarding situation in Houston where the owner passed away and the family surrendered him. We think Bing has the potential to be a therapy dog. He’s good with kids. His foster Mom had a 20 yr old autistic son with down’s syndrome (age equivalent of 3 yr old) and Bing just LOVED him. He’s housebroken and crate trained. We prefer a quiet household for him, however. He enjoys car rides. He’s good being bathed and groomed. He does have dry eye (common in shih-tzus) which requires eye drops 2x a day but he’s very good about getting drops put in and being handled. Do you have room in your life for this sweet little fella? If so, do not email us but hurry over to our web site to fill out the online application at http://saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp. He is available on 1/10/17. UPDATE: He was seen by the vet and he appears to be blind in his right eye and impaired in the left. He also appears to be hard of hearing, but can hear a squeaky so the jury is still out on that one. Apply at saveadog.org
