Timothy (Bob Dylan Litter 3)

Shih Tzu

7 months, Male, Extra Small

Timothy is ready for his forever home now that his non-working kidney has been removed and his final visit at OSU resulted in his kidney values to be right where his doctors wanted them to be.  Timothy should now be able to live a life just as anyone that has donated a kidney.

Timothy is a feisty little boy (less than 10 lbs.) with a DOB of 12.7.24. Timothy has no idea that he is little or was ever sick. Timothy loves his toys and drags them out of his toy box faster than his foster mom can pick them up.

Timothy goes outside for scheduled potty breaks. He does his business and then "flies" to his foster mom for a treat. Timothy also has access to pee pads inside that only he and his similar size littermate can access by crawling under a baby gate that is slightly raised. Timothy is still working on inside potty manners, but improves daily. Timothy is treat motivated.

Timothy sleeps quietly in his crate by himself in a room with several crated dogs. Timothy has no idea that he is little and loves to romp with the big dogs until his foster parents intervene after a period of time. Timothy's favorite friend, after his sister Sylvia, is a 6 month old active border collie/lab mix. Timothy is the perfect example of TINY but MIGHTY! 

Timothy is neutered and all up to date on his shots. Timothy would love a home with a fenced yard so he can run and show off his zoomies. He would also love some doggy friends - small or big - as long as they are fairly patient to put up with his spunky self!

You can apply to meet Timothy at ricopetrecovery.org. The adoption fee of $350.
