Tia - 8 Year Old, Female Shih Tzu Mix
ADOPTED
Tia is an 8 year old Shih Tzu mix who weighs about 16 pounds. She is a spayed female who is up date on her shots.
Tia was picked up as a stray at another shelter in mid June 2007. She just recently came to Tiny Paws with her foster mom. Tia has is hypothyroid and requires meds to treat this condition. Tia has some skin issues that could be improved with a medicated bath and good grooming. She did have a yeast infection in the past but is improving greatly. Her coat is getting thicker from when she first came to her foster home.
Socially she is a great little dog who gets along with everyone and other dogs ( her foster home has four). Tia has no experience with cats but would be suprised if there was an issue. She is house trained but needs to be prompted to go out, does not ask. Wonderful, sweet little girl who would be a great companion. She probably would like to be with another dog in the house, but as long as she is with a person she would be happy.
Tia's Adoption Fee is $200.00.
