Lars,
our 10 year old 14 pound ShihTzu, understands the finer things in life.
If he were a human, Lars would dine at the best restaurants and would
have a favorite brand of caviar. But, Lars is a dog. So he's a fan of
garbage and sidewalk snacks. It's a good lesson that the finest things
in life are different for everyone. Our little connoisseur is looking
for a tasteful forever home.
Lars was found stray and the shelter
asked us to help. He had several teeth that needed to be extracted and a
couple of pesky testicles that needed to go. Lars is recovered from his
surgery and thriving. Snacks always taste better with clean teeth.
Our
Lars is an easy keeper. He is very friendly and loves attention,
snuggling, squeaky toys and naps. Lars has picked up a charming trick
where he stands on his hind feet and waves his front feet in the air to
beg for pets. Irresistible. Lars is a fan of walks and struts handsomely
on a leash. He has been great with dogs of all sizes and with cats.
Lars is mostly house trained with an occasional marking accident (that
has improved since the pesky testicles were removed) and he can be
trusted to be left alone.
Lars does well with older children.
Because he passionately defends tasty trash or bags of treats if he
successfully steals them, we don't think Lars should live with small
kids. Lars otherwise does not resource guard. Lars excels at letting
people know if there is anyone outside the door. For this reason, living
in an apartment with a busy shared hallway may not be the best fit.
Besides his zest for trash and telling the neighbors to "get off his
lawn", Lars is a perfect housemate.
Lars is heartworm negative and current on his flea and heartworm preventatives.
Think you have room on your lap for Lars? Tired of delivery people sneaking up on you? Have your garbage safely locked up?
