LIL BIT

Hello! Let me introduce myself. I am Lil Bit (short for Little Bit of Love) and I am a wonderful Shih Tzu boy. I am about 9-10 years old and I have black hair with little white paws. My eyes are dark brown and they are a bit cloudy due to my age. But, don’t let my age scare you. Remember, Shih Tzus live a long life and I am planning on being around for a long while as I am very healthy!
My foster Mom and Dad found me at the local animal shelter and am I ever glad they did!! I was actually found wandering in a field by a Good Samaritan and taken to the shelter. My family couldn’t be found, so I now have a foster family – BUT I am definitely looking for my forever home and a forever family to love.
I am very sweet and loving and am easy to have around the house. I get along with my foster brothers and sisters, so if my new home had another dog, that would be just fine with me. I also am happy to meet new people. I especially like my foster dad. My foster parents think that I might have been in a family with an older gentleman as I particularly like to be around men. I’m not too certain about children yet as I haven’t been around very many. But, I think older children who understand about dogs would be just fine with me.
I understand when my foster mom tells me that we are going on a car ride. I LOVE to go in the car and am very good. I also love to go on walks and am quite good on the leash. I am very calm and gentle when I walk. I just like to take in all the sights around me! I’m also learning housebreaking and am getting better and better each day.
I spend a lot of time sleeping, and I will sleep under the table, chairs or even the bed. At night I sleep in my little bed in my parent’s bedroom. I also love to follow my foster parents around the house. I look up at them and try to tell them that I am so grateful they rescued me. I particularly like it when my foster mom gives me a chewy stick. I will take that stick and follow her around the house. She laughs at me because it looks like I have a big cigarette hanging from my mouth! I have also figured out where Mom and Dad keep my treats. When I want one of those I start a funny low bark to get their attention. My little bark sounds like an engine revving up, then I bark three times for my treat. I’ve got them trained because whenever I do that I manage to get one!
I hope that you can see what a great little guy I am. I am quiet, loving, and very laid back. I love to get lots of attention, but I also love just being by your side. Please contact my foster mom at daffyduck76@comcast.net. She will tell you lots more about me. Also, please check out my Petfinder page for even more information. I would love to be a part of your family. I promise to give you lots of years of loving!
I am altered, up-to-date on all my shots and heartworm negative.
