Meet Munchie

Munchie is a four year old, 12lb dog, guessed to be a Lhasa /ShihTzu mix, who is looking for a loving home.




Munchie, short for Munchkin, was turned in to the local city shelter by his owners who had "no time" for him. With his family, Munchie is a loving, sweet, affectionate dog who is healthy and housetrained. He does well with other small dogs and tolerates cats.



We know Munchie has had a hard time previously in his life as he is fearful and is very difficult with new people. He needs a great deal of guidance, space, and time to adjust. Munchie has made great progress in his foster home, but in a new surrounding he may regress at first and will need patience and training.




Munchie will do best with a home in the suburbs or in the country where surroundings are less hectic and where he will have a chance to run around and get a lot of exercise. Munchie might be able to be adopted to a city home if his owner had a great deal of experience working specifically with dogs who have behavioral problems and was able to be home for a significant part of the day and evening.




Please do not apply if you have not had strong previous experience living with a dog and working with his/her behavior issue.
