RENO - I’VE BEEN ADOPTED!!!
My name is Reno and I am in the Forever Foster program here at Lone Star. BUT, if someone special wanted to adopt me, that would be just fine with me!! I am a 10 year old Shih Tzu boy with black hair. My foster mom says that I am very sweet, very laid back, and that I am very much a gentleman. I will curl up next to her on the couch and get pets every chance I get. I LOVE to have my ears and chin scratched. And, I am particularly fond of tummy rubs. I also like to sleep next to my foster mom at night. She doesn’t need her electric blanket when I’m around!!
The reason that I am in the Forever Foster program is that I am a little older and I have some minor health problems. I have a heart murmur and I also have thyroid problems. I take medicine for my thyroid daily, just like many people do who have thyroid problems. These problems don’t stop me from enjoying life that’s for sure!! I am VERY good about taking my medicine every day as I know it is helping me.
I am a talker and I tend to “growl” a bit. Actually, I growl at just about everything, but usually I am just talking away. I even “purr” a bit and it sounds like a little low growl, but it just means that I am very content. My foster mom has gotten used to these funny sounds of mine. In spite of my “growliness”, my foster mom says that I am a gem at the groomer’s, or when I am getting a bath at home.
I do love my treats and my soft plush toys. I will play a bit in the evening with them, but since I am older, I tend to enjoy a quieter life. I like to go on car rides, but prefer to be in the back seat. I am also doggie door trained. If I am someplace that doesn’t have a doggie door, I let my foster mom know that I have to go out by patting her leg with my paw. All in all, I am a very good boy.
If you would like more information about me, please contact my foster mom at schatzie@cmaaccess.com You can also learn a bit more about me on my PetFinder page. Please consider me for adoption, or maybe you can help by a donation to our Forever Foster Program at Lone Star.
I am altered, up to date on all shots, heartworm negative and microchipped.

I’m really cuter than my pictures and in spite of what anyone says, I really do like people.
