April is a 7-9 year old Shih Tzu weighing 12 pounds. She came to us as a puppy mill survivor and is ready for the next and final journey in her quest for a forever home.
April came into the rescue with a huge bladder stone causing her an immense amount of pain and discomfort. The rescue got her into see a vet immediately and surgery was performed to remove the stone and spayed her at the same time. She got better and has transformed into a very energetic and affectionate companion. Although she is still skittish and runs away from her foster mom, you can tell that she wants to trust. Her tail is always wagging.
April will need leash training as she has not had any experience walking with one.
Her housetraining needs on going support.
She would do best in a home with a yard.
She has been introduced to a few dogs and is quite friendly towards them.
She is extremely interested in the resident cat, a lot more interested than the cat is in her. She may be a bit too intense for a cat.
She likes to chew on her toys and doesn’t know the difference between her toys and a pair of reading glasses, so it would be advised to keep these things out of her reach.
April is on a special diet to prevent stones from re-occurring and has to have drops in her eyes daily. She is pretty good at getting her eye drops put in.
