Story

Hi there. My name is Bandit and I’m a male 5-year-old Shih Tzu mix. I’m about 14 lbs., and full of personality. My cute face and big eyes are hard to resist. I love to play, but can be a bit rough at times. It’s something my foster mom is working on, but I still have some work to do. I love cuddling on the couch and will put my head on your lap and like to be hugged like a baby. As far as strangers, I can be a little unsure and snarky at first. So it’s best if I’m introduced to strangers slowly. Kids over 12 are best. I do think I’m the boss sometimes, so a firm but gentle hand is probably the best thing for me. I am potty trained and crate trained, in fact it’s my little safe space. If you leave the door open you will likely find me sleeping in there. I do love my walks and walk pretty good, but at first I can be a little excited and want to be the leader. I have also been known to do some zoomies in the yard as well. For me, a secured fenced yard is a bonus, but not required. I have been vet checked, neutered, micro chipped, heartworm tested negative, am up to date on routine shots including rabies and have been treated with flea & heartworm preventative. Bandit’s adoption fee is $495. If you are interested in adopting Bandit, and ready to give me a lifelong commitment, then click on Adoption Application in the menu at the top of the page to find our electronic application which serves as the basis of a conversation. Submit it & you will be contacted. NO MEETING CAN BE SETUP WITHOUT AN APPROVED APPLICATION!! So if you are interested in talking to my foster mom & meeting Bandit, then you will need to submit a formal application. ***Please note that we are a foster based group located in the southern suburbs of Chicago. Under normal circumstances, we serve only the greater Chicago metropolitan area.***

Benji is a 6 month old, 10 pound male ShihTzu/Maltese mix. He loves everyone: humans and dogs! He loves playing with his 30lb foster cousin that visits. He is mostly house trained but needs reminders. He’s crate trained & sleeps quietly at night. Still being a young pup, he needs a family willing to devote the time & energy to his training. A fenced yard is a plus. Don’t forget, he will need regular visits to the groomer. His adoption fee is $550, which includes his neuter, vaccines, heartworm test (he is negative & on heartworm, flea & tick prevention) & microchip. He is fostered in the suburbs of Chicago & we serve that area & Northwest Indiana. We do not ship dogs. To meet Benji, please visit www.heathersfosterdogs.org to fill out an application, & it will be forwarded to his foster mom to set up a meet & greet.

Story

Meet Tinker! She is guessed to be about 4 years old and weighs 10.5 lbs. She is a really sweet girl who will make a great companion. She's sweet, well-behaved, and lovable. She rides well in the car and does wonderful on walks. She would love her own fenced in yard with grass to roam and play in. She does have some narrowing of spaces between her vertebrae, Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD). It will be important to ensure she does not jump on or off furniture, does not engage in high impact activities, or activities which could cause back strain- like sudden changes of direction, and that she maintains a healthy weight. Complications with IVDD can lead to paralysis and incontinence, so it is best to manage and prevent any back strain. Because of the IVDD she does have a slightly abnormal gait, but she gets around with no issues right now. Application, reference checks, and home visit required. Adopters must live 1.5 hours driving distance from Romeoville, IL. For more information on adopting, please email us at info@perfectpooches.org. If you are interested in adopting, please complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website at www.perfectpooches.org under the Adoption Process tab. All dogs are spayed/neutered, current on vaccines, heartworm tested (age appropriate), fecal tested and/or dewormed, and microchipped.
