DESCRIPTION
Meet Walter!
Walter is a 12 year old, 12 pound shitzu mix who is fully vetted, crate and potty trained.
Walter is a sweet old man who needs a soft place to land for his last few years! He's visually impaired and has limited hearing but that doesn't stop him from enjoying life! He has a small grade heart murmur which currently needs no treatment and does need arthritis meds.
Walter is perfectly content doing his own thing- he is indifferent to dogs and kids, preferring a calm, low-key enviornment where he can just obsereve the world. And get butt scratches.... he LOVES butt scratches!

ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
The Shih Tzu is a small, affectionate dog breed known for its distinctive appearance, with a luxurious double coat, a short muzzle, and large round eyes. Originally bred as companion dogs for Chinese royalty, Shih Tzus are friendly, outgoing, and loving pets. They are known for their playful and charming personality, making them great family pets and suitable for apartment living. With their low shedding coat and adorable face, Shih Tzus are popular among dog lovers worldwide.
