About This Dog for Adoption

Donald's ideal home

Donald is looking for a home with a family who would be willing to give him all the love and adventures he deserves. Adopters will need to be understanding and willing to take on their breeds' grooming requirements. He would be able to live with children aged 10 years or older who would give him space when needed and understand he sometimes can be a little excitable with his treats! He could live with another calm and polite dog who would happily co-exist, though this is not a necessity. He would also be happy with walking buddies who are calm and polite. He cannot live with cats or any small furries.
Unfortunately, Donald has not had masses of training in the past and therefore would benefit from all basic skills as well as any fun skills to build his confidence. Short and sweet training sessions with a tasty reward would be best for him. He will need housetraining in his new home so access to a private, secure garden is needed. Donald could be left for 2-4 hours once settled into his new home, but this should be introduced slowly once he has had time to get used to his new family and surroundings.

Donald will need to meet his adopters multiple times prior to going home so please bear this in mind when applying. Please note that should you be shortlisted, our rehoming process usually takes up to 7 days, and potential adopters would be required to come up to the centre to meet himwithin 48hrs of being shortlisted.

Could you be Donald's perfect match?

Donald is a two-year-old Shih Tzu who loves fuss with his favourite people. He is a confident little lad with lots of love to give and guaranteed to light up any room he walks in to! He has really started to come out of his shell and now is choosing to sit on his humans lap he has become comfortable with and watch the world go by. This little chap is ready to find his new home.

Shih Tzu Buying Checklist

We highly recommend every buyer reads through the below advice when purchasing or rehoming a Shih Tzu.

  • View the animal in the place it was born and raised - check for genuine home environments if buying privately, or the quality of the breeders set-up if applicable.
  • If viewing a puppy under 8 weeks, by law they MUST be seen with their mum.
  • Make sure the animal's old enough to be rehomed. 8 weeks should be the earliest a puppy can be rehomed.
  • By law, all dogs MUST be microchipped
  • Review and verify any documents, such as KC registration paperwork where applicable

Avoid Potential Scams

There are a number of red flags to look out for when purchasing a new puppy:

  • Seller demands a deposit without allowing you to see the dog first - never send any money before meeting the animal in person
  • Seller is reluctant to send you additional photos or videos
  • Seller offers to deliver the dog/puppy
  • Seller asks to meet in a mutual location
  • Seller uses fake or stolen photos from the internet. Always carry out a "Google image search".
  • Seller asks to immediately switch to communication off the Shih Tzu Owners website
  • Seller uses a different phone number to the one listed on the website - especially if that phone number is in one of the advert images

Although we have a number of automated systems in place to prevent scam and fraudulant adverts, these can never be 100% accurate and its important to use caution when buying online. We do not accept any responsibility for transactions between our users, especially when our safe buying advice is not followed.
