Story
applications at leiashope.org Apple Strudel Teddybear (Shih Tzu / Bichon mix) Male Location: Decatur, IL Apple Strudel is a sweet, gentle little guy with a joyful personality and a proud little strut to match. He loves playing with the mini poodle in his foster home and would be happiest in a home with a playful companion—either another dog or children who enjoy interacting with an active puppy. One of his favorite pastimes is carrying around small balls, especially wool cat balls, which he proudly parades with his tail up and head held high like he’s just won a prize. Strudel is doing well with his Puppy Culture basics and has shown nice progress with handling, including having his paws and face touched and groomed. As long as liverwurst is involved, he’s a very willing participant. He was born in rescue and has been raised on a balanced raw diet designed to support growth and help build a healthy gut biome. While continuing raw is not required, providing a high-quality, nutritionally sound diet is important for his long-term health and overall well-being. His adoption includes the next step of the Puppy Culture program, supporting continued confidence building, learning, and thoughtful development as he grows. Regular grooming will be required throughout his life, including professional grooming every 6 weeks with consistent brushing in between appointments. Apple Strudel is very much underfoot and a major trip hazard, so he is not a good fit for homes with small toddlers learning to walk or anyone with mobility concerns. Apple Strudel has been seen by the veterinarian and checks out perfectly adorable with no health concerns. He will go home with two rounds of puppy vaccines and will be microchipped. He is not neutered due to age; a neuter contract is required, and Leia’s Hope will cover $200 toward the neuter when completed between 6–9 months of age. He will be ready for his new home once fully weaned and after receiving his second vaccine, which will be after December 22. Adoption fee: $650 Applications are processed in 7–10 business days. An approved application is required before a meet and greet. All family members, including resident dogs, must attend, and adopters must travel to Decatur, IL. We do not provide transportation. If flying home with your new pet, Apple Strudel must ride in the cabin with his family—cargo flights are not permitted. Puppies are a lifetime commitment of 15+ years. If at any point Apple Strudel cannot remain with his adopter, he must be returned to Leia’s Hope Canine Rescue. Applications and additional information can be found at leiashope.org.
