Story
I am looking for a foster or forever family! Please email fostersupport@thebondbetween.org if you can say YES to fostering this animal! Select the "Apply for Adoption" if you would like to adopt Hi, my name is Oscar! Oscar is a sweet and cuddly dog. All he wants in life is to please his person/people. He gets along great with dogs, cats and kids of all ages. He walks well on leash, is crate trained (he does prefer to sleep with his people in bed though), and potty trained. He is interested in marking in the home, but does great wearing a belly band. He does extremely well to please you, so he quickly listens and is easily redirected. He bonded quickly to our resident dog and cat. His favorite thing in life is to cuddle. He loves to hang out on his back with his belly exposed. If you're looking for a sweet, well mannered, and cuddly companion, Oscar is your dog!

Story
Hi, my name is Sophie, and I am from Minnesota. From her foster: Sophie is a sweet, mellow little dog who loves people and likes their attention. She will cuddle for short periods but clingy doesn't describe her. She likes to find her own special, unique places to hang out and take naps. Sophie is well behaved in the house; she rarely barks. She will let you know when she wants to go outside or when she's hungry by making funny little noises. Sophie loves being outside and going for walks on warm days. In colder weather she wears a sweatshirt and a coat to keep cozy warm. She is cautious around bigger dogs, but over time she's gaining courage around dogs she sees regularly. Having been unused to stairs before, she now jumps up the step into the house but hasn't mastered the longer stairs yet. Sophie is ready to wiggle her way into your heart. Are you ready to meet her?

Hi my name is Riggy Moe and I am from Minnesota! Riggy Moe is a Senior Mini Schnauzer, she is very sweet and adorable!! She is full of personality and she is a social gal as she likes to make new friends. She does great with my other dogs as well. She also likes going for walks when the weather is nice. She is doing well with her housetraining and her crate training, I recently have let her run of my bedroom, kitchen and she has been doing well with that.She is used to sleeping on my bed with me as I have doggy stairs for her to use and she definitely let you know her place is on the bed, I affectionately call her my Sassy Princess! She is a wonderful companion dog who already has me wrapped around her little paw as I just adore her! From the Vet: Ms. Riggy Moe is a spunky senior gal ready to find her final forever home for her golden years. While she is not without some medical that will required monitoring with her adoptive homes primary DVM as would be typical with any senior pup. Based on all other physical exam findings, we expect that she will be a perfect senior adoptable dog for some one looking for an easy companion!

Story
In addition to the following profile for this dog, please first read the Adoption Information at http://www.shihtzurescuemn.org/adopt.html to understand the process, requirements and timeline for adoption. An adoption application can also be found in the Adoption Info section. If, after reading that information, you have any questions, please submit your question via e-mail and it will be answered. Please do not request a phone call. A personal phone call will only be made when an adoption application has been submitted and the foster parent wishes to consider the application. Thank you! Hi, my name is King, I am five years old and weigh almost seven pounds. I came into rescue from a breeder, where I unfortunately was kept indoors my entire life. So I haven’t been potty trained, or even learned about how wonderful being able to go outside and explore can be. But it’s been a bit cold, so my foster mom is helping train me on potty pads, and will go out for longer periods when the weather is a bit warmer. Because I led such a confined life, everything is new to me so I’m a little scared and nervous. I didn’t know what it was like to have a human touch me gently, but after a few days I let my foster mom pet me. Now I sit close to her and love her gentle touches. I had never walked on a leash before, but now a pro at it and am a fast learner. I enjoy other dogs and ideally I’d like a home with another dog so I have someone to play with. A home with a fenced yard would be super, but I would also be fine living in an apartment because I’m such a quiet little guy and can be somewhat of a couch potato. I’m too little to get up and down from furniture, and stairs are a new thing for me, but I’m a quick learner. Because I’m pretty shy, my new family must understand that I’ll need time to become comfortable in a new home and with new people. But with a little time I’ll be your snuggle bug, and want to be right by your side. I’ll greet you by running in circles and wagging my tail. I’ll also want to sleep with you. I spent most of my life in a kennel; it’s traumatizing for me, and I will cry or bark if you put me in a kennel. These are the requirements for my new family: 1. A quiet, adults only family who is home much of the day. 2. King is not housetrained, and his new family must be understanding and commit to his continued training. They must also understand that he has never been exposed to much of anything and will gradually introduce him to new situations and experiences. 3. Another small dog in the home would be great because King enjoys the company of another dog. 4. Agree to never put King in a kennel. 5. Live within 30 miles of Hopkins, MN. 6. Attend the annual Shih Tzu Rescue Reunion held each year in September. King is scheduled to be neutered and have entropian surgery within the coming weeks. Once he has recovered, he will be ready to go to his new home. He is current on vaccinations, microchipped, and on heartworm and flea/tick preventative. His adoption fee is $370.00 plus $33.39 sales tax for a total of $403.39. To meet King, please complete an adoption application at the website listed in the first paragraph. Or you can also see him and the other dogs available for adoption from Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota by visiting with us from 10:00 AM to 12:00 noon the first Saturday of every month at the Southtown PetCo in Bloomington, MN.
