Story
Hi, I’m Lena, an 8monthold Shih Tzu-Poodle blend. My name means “light,” and I like to think I bring a little brightness wherever I go. I’m a happy young girl who enjoys being included in daily life, whether that means tagging along for an outing or relaxing nearby after a busy day.
Favorite Things: Lena absolutely adores toys and can happily entertain herself with a growing collection of favorites. She loves carrying them around, tossing them into the air, and turning ordinary moments into games. If another dog is willing to join in, even better.
Training and Manners: Lena is making wonderful progress with her puppy lessons. She’s working on house training and has started recognizing when she needs to go outside, often heading toward the door to let her people know. Leash walking is still fairly new to her, but she continues gaining confidence with practice. She’s a smart little girl who is especially eager to learn when treats are involved.
Health and Care: Lena is microchipped, spayed and up to date on her vaccines. She will just need need monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. Lena requires regular professional grooming to keep her looking and feeling her best.
Other Animals: Lena enjoys the company of both dogs and cats and has experience living with each. She especially seems to appreciate having another dog around and would likely enjoy a home with a friendly canine companion.
Children: Lena has not been around children in her foster home, but her gentle nature suggests she may do well with respectful children who understand how to interact appropriately with a young dog.
Ideal Home: Lena would love a home where someone is around more often than not, as she enjoys being part of daily life. She has free rein of the house when left alone and has settled nicely into that routine. At night, she sleeps peacefully in her own space, though we're quite sure she wouldn't object to snuggling up beside her favorite person instead. She can adapt well to apartments, townhomes, condos, or houses and will thrive with an adopter who can provide companionship and consistency.
Overall: Lena is a delightful young dog with a bright personality and a wonderful outlook on life. She’s settling into the world beautifully and continues to charm everyone she meets. True to the meaning of her name, Lena has a way of bringing a little extra light wherever she goes. If Lena sounds like the perfect match, visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org to submit an adoption application. If it seems like a good fit, her foster family will reach out. Her adoption donation is $650.
