A Shih Tzu x Boston Terrier Female named Splash

Splash is presently Adopted

Splash is a one-year-old, female and we believe that she is a Shih Tzu x Boston Terrier.  Splash is another pound pup who was picked up as a stray.  Stray dogs are not only found in remote areas of Northern Quebec; they seem to be multiplying in alarming numbers in Montreal and the surrounding areas.  Dogs like Splash were either given or bought from someone who had an unwanted litter, with little thought given to the responsibility of having a dog.  The dogs at Animatch are safe and will stay at the Centre until they find their forever home.  However, pounds and humane societies must make room for more dogs needing shelter.  The adoption rate is not equal to the number of dogs coming into rescue.  So, do the math.  We all know the fate of many young, healthy, adoptable dogs.  Until everyone realizes the importance of spaying and neutering their dogs (and cats!), the problem of strays won’t be solved.  Splash, as young as she is, may have already had a litter.  Her life will only get better from this point on.  She is an affectionate, lively, girl who has never met a stranger.  She will need lots of exercise and would even benefit from obedience training classes.  She gets along well with other dogs and has discovered that taking long walks is lots of fun.  Splash can be quite vocal so apartment/condo living is not for her.  She will be an awesome dog for her new family.  Are you looking for a small dog with a big personality?  Splash is waiting for a home, so please fill in the Adoption Form if you feel she is the dog for you.

Pet overpopulation isn’t the end
of the world, unless you’re
a puppy or a kitten.

    En fait, tous les chiens perdent du poil mais à quantité variable. L’important est de les brosser régulièrement, chaque jours idéalement. Ce qui reste dans la brosse n’est pas sur votre sofa! Lorsqu’un chien vit dans notre maison, inévitablement on y retrouve des poils donc il faut s’y préparer.

    C’est sur! Mais le Shih Tzu perd peu de poil par rapport à bien d’autre race….. Donc, Splash ce trouve dans quel catégorie?

    My brother has a Boston Terrier - and trust me folks, even though Splash isn’t purebred….... you never been kissed unless you’ve been kissed by a Boston grin  They are super intelligent will go above and beyond for those he loves.
