Adopt a Shih Tzu (long coat)

Shih Tzu (long coat) Dog

Suki the Dog needs a home

Please contact Jeff ([email protected]) for more information about this pet.

Suki's adoption donation is $250 and she is being fostered in Central Ohio.  She has been spayed, microchipped, received her rabies, distemper/parvo, and bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworm and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention.  Suki has also received the canine influenza vaccines.


Suki and Brutus were surrendered to the rescue when their owner could no longer care for them.  Suki is an 8 year old Shih Tzu who is a friendly, happy girl.  She does well on potty training and loves to go for car rides.  Suki and Brutus are bonded and must be adopted together.  They do well with other dogs and love to play. 

Once you meet this Absolutely Adorable little boy and girl, you will see that these two are just simply inseparable!  These two watch out for each other like a married couple of 50 years! :)  They do everything together!!  They are both extremely quiet and well behaved!  The only bark when someone comes to the door they don't know!  Brutus is missing his right eye...we don't know the history there, but it doesn't slow him down in the least!  He has Suki watching out for him!  They both LOVE to go on walks...they see it as Adventure Time, so plan on a few stops along the way!  They are both very fun and friendly dogs!  Suki is working hard on her fitness program as that is one of her New Year's resolutions.  They exhibit the perfect Shih Tzu fun loving personalities that LOVE to greet my family and I when we come home each day!  They both love affection and cuddling!


PLEASE NOTE:   If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website, not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.  If you go to the individual webpage of our dogs, you will be able to get more information each dog.





Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix.  We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.




Our Adoption Process








The adoption process has several steps involved.


Please review prior to submitting an application.
Our adoption process is detailed here: 




http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption




Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog.  We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved.  It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs.




Special Requirements




Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable.  If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence.  Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets. 




The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms.  The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information.  If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed.  Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home. 
No application is approved prior to the home visit being done.
  At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs.




Out of State Adoptions




We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer. 
We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.
