Flo is a 6 year old Shih Tzu that came into foster as quite a nervous little girl but is starting to trust more and more every day. She likes people and when you gain her trust, she’ll wag her tail and sit close. She’s learning that cuddles are a good thing and is enjoying them more and more. She has the sweetest nature in all situations but can be nervous meeting new people in the home or out on a walk. She becomes hesitant and needs reassurance.
As Flo’s confidence grows, she is becoming less shy and scared and is developing quite a playful, cheeky nature. She’s starting to play with toys and seems to have discovered the zoomies! She makes her foster mum laugh every day. She has also recently learned that sitting on laps is a good thing but she needs to be picked up for this to happen. She’s the sweetest little girl.
She is not cat or small furry tested but we have a feeling she would be more scared of a cat than a cat would be of her.
At the moment, Flo benefits from a quiet home but could well adjust to having older children around. She’s not a fan of loud noises and has stopped in her tracks when walking in the vicinity of younger children playing.
Flo has only just started to play with toys with her foster mum and is still learning how to have fun with them.
She’s great on a lead and is a pleasure to walk.
Flo prefers to sleep on a blanket rather than in a dog bed at the moment and sleeps in the lounge at night with the other dog in the house.
She hasn’t had a single accident whilst in foster care and in order to encourage her to do her business at the bottom of the garden rather than close to the house, she benefits from someone walking down the garden with her.
Flo loves a treat which she takes gently. She’s hasn’t quite learnt that they are not all for her yet and will try her luck with treats being given to other dogs. She can eat around other dogs but isn’t shy of going to see if there’s any left in another dogs bowl once she’s finished hers.
Flo loves a walk and calm surroundings. Her new family will need patience whilst her confidence continues to grow and would suite anyone who can offer this. Another dog in the home to help her continue to learn to trust would be a real benefit. She could also be an only dog with owners around most of the time and lots of doggy friends to play with.
