Story

Alexandra is a Shih Tzu/Chihuahua mix, born on December 1, 2015. She's an absolute sweetheart. Seriously, I mean it. She loves to cuddle or just lay out in the sun. She loves to be around people. Alexandra is gentle with kids and gets along with other dogs and cats. She has urinary incontinence and wears diapers. Spayed in July 2023 and received a rabies vaccine. She requires a lot of attention but I had a baby with their own medical needs and can no longer afford Alexandra's care and it's not fair for her; I just want her to be okay for the remaining years she has left. Alexandra is leash and collar trained, she lets you know when she needs to go out and sleeps in her crate through the night. She understands both English and Spanish commands, she's a bilingual baddie.

Story

About Charlie Age 2.5years old Weight 16 pounds Energy level Medium Healthy status Healthy Ideal home Fenced yard with someone home part of the day Charlie came to us from a local shelter. Charlie is an affectionate Shih Tzu mix who loves toys almost as much as he loves his people. He can entertain himself for quite a while, burying his toys under blankets and pillows, walking around with a toy in his mouth, or lying on his back holding a toy with his paws. He also loves cuddle, lap, and play time with his people and will gaze adoringly into their eyes. He enjoys meeting new people (especially if a treat is involved!), but he will stay at a respectful distance and approach them on his own time. Charlie is a sturdy boy who weighs around 16 pounds. He enjoys being the center of his guardian's world, so we are asking that he go to a home without to many dogs because we want him to be spoiled! Charlie does great with no accidents if he is let outside in the backyard every few hours like most dogs. He will go on indoor pee pads if necessary. Charlie prefers not to be left alone for too long, so we are asking for a home with someone home part of the day.

Story

About Ethel &#226&#128&#139Age: 11 years old Energy level: Low Medical history: Recent dental and removal of mammary masses. Weight:11 Breed: Shih Tzu &#226&#128&#139Ethel is a recent rescue and is doing great in her foster home. This little angel is a cuddlebug. She loves to nuzzle her head in her foster mom’s shoulder and nap snuggled up against her mom. You might mistake her for a little baby! This cutie is housetrained but requires a potty break every few hours to avoid accidents. Ethel does great around other dogs. She enjoys car rides to the pet store to receive her doggie treats! Her foster mom can’t say enough good things to describe Ethel’s sweet nature. She even has a Instagram page about her here: https://www.instagram.com/ethel_caring_hearts_rescue/ Ethel recently had a full dental and several mammary masses removed. To be extra safe, her new adopters will need to be vigilant and watch the areas where the masses were removed in case there is any new growth. Ethel had a full blood chemistry and urinalysis and is in good shape. She now needs a home where she will be cherished forever—she deserves it!

Story

PARKER Shih Tzu Mix Male Cream 3 years old 23 pounds Meet Parker - a playful and deserving pup Parker started off being reserved when he met his foster's residential dog and husband. However, over time, he has warmed up to them, showing an ability to build trust. Parker sometimes exhibits a bit of guarding when he's in his crate or with a toy. Identifying triggers for this behavior can be crucial in understanding and managing it effectively. Patience, building trust, and positive training will do wonders for this furry friend. Parker engages in playful activities like tug of war with a residential female dog. Understanding when these interactions are positive may offer insights into his personality and preferences when it comes to playing. Parker loves running around at full speed in the yard, showcasing high energy levels and a playful nature. He is potty trained which indicates a level of training and adaptability. Understanding Parker's past and working with his unique needs, including potential fear or trust issues, will be essential for providing him with a secure and loving home. This cute underbite is very typical of a ShihTzu trait! Please Note: *Must have a FENCED-IN yard!* **No children under 10!** If you are interested in adopting PARKER please go to our website www.somersetcottagepoodlerescue.org to see our adoption process and download the adoption application PARKER's adoption donation is $695 PARKER's adoption donation is $695
