Ewa's estimated birthdate: September 18, 2023
Little Ewa is a sweet Shih Tzu who came to us in rough shape. She was matted, had a raw neck from a flea collar, and was underweight. After some much-needed grooming, we discovered she had an inguinal hernia and some sores on her body. Thanks to her loving foster home, Ewa has gained weight and is healing wonderfully! She loves to run and play, and she's also very cuddly and enjoys being held. Ewa has a lot of love to give and is eager to find a family to spoil her for the rest of her life!
Ideal Home
Ewa needs a home where she will NOT be crated, as she has a strong aversion to them. A consistent routine will help her build confidence and trust. She requires a physically fenced yard for safe play and exercise. She is dog-social, but her compatibility with cats is unknown. Children aged 7 and older are recommended. She is not fond of car rides.
Ongoing Health
Ewa had an inguinal hernia that was successfully repaired at the time of her spay. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, and on monthly heartworm preventative.
Training & Support
Ewa is house-trained. She was crated extensively by her previous owners, so she needs a home that will support her need to avoid crating and help her build confidence.
