Shih Tzu Dogs Available for Adoption in Cincinnati, Ohio

Meet Crumpet!

Crumpet is an adorably cute 5.5 year old, female Shih Tzu who weighs 13 pounds. She is a puppy mill survivor and filled with love, trust and curiosity despite her traumatic start to life. She is more than ready to leave her past behind her and enjoy a new life and family!

Crumpet is sweet, gentle and full of love! She is still settling into her foster home but is already starting to come out of her shell. She will need a patient, kind adopter who will continue to help her build confidence and learn that humans are safe. While she doesn't mind being carried, she is also comfortable exploring her surroundings and being independent.

She is currently fostered with a cat and does very well with interactions. Her favorite activities include napping in a cozy bed, tasting yummy treats and exploring her environment - especially the backyard! She enjoys following her foster parents around the house and finds comfort in their presence. She especially loves a good belly rub!

Crumpet is not yet fully potty trained but making good progress. She is new to walking on a leash but is making strides towards short walks around the neighborhood.

This brave little lady is ready to share her big heart with her forever family! Crumpet is fostered in Cincinnati, OH. Her adoption fee is $450.00.

To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt

All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals.

For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible.

We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.
