My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Lito Lopez is an 13 year old Shih-Tzu Maltese mix who loves naps and yummy treats! Initially Lito may come off as aggressive as he is not fixed and very vocal with strangers, but with time and a lot of patience he becomes accustomed to new people and is very loving and docile. We are looking to re-home him because he is allergic to many things, especially to the weeds that grow in my community (He has lost most of his fur over 4 yrs). Regular baths and allergy shots has helped ease the symptoms but has not fully relieved the issue due to the constant exposure to the grass in my area. He also takes medication for a heart murmur and arthritis. My wish for Lito is to live a comfortable and stress free life in his senior years. Despite his age and size Lito believes himself to be a great guard dog, although you will see very fast it is a front and he is a big wimp. Lito would do best in a home with no kids or older kids as he is low energy and scared of rambunctious children.
