Ryder
HERE’S RYDER…known to his friends as “low Ryder!” This little 15 lb, charcoal/white, 4-5 yr old, Shih Tzu was found wandering around Riverside, lost, matted and alone. A couple of Good Samaritans called to him and he came to them without a struggle. Into their arms he went and they set out to find his owners. No such luck. No collar, no tags, no microchip. They alerted the shelter they had him and checked everyday for word. No such luck. But the lucky ones were Lhasa Happy Homes when they asked if we could find him a great home. Yes!!!
When Ryder arrived — intact, severe UTI and eye infection — he was a little on the wild side. He was humping everything in sight and even tried to hump my head! We were afraid he had bladder stones, but fortunately it was just a bad infection. Now that he is neutered and his infection is gone, he’s just a wonderful little man who wants to meet everyone on the street and give sweet kisses when he can. No more humping!! Poor thing hates the cone of shame he has had to wear, but when it’s off he is a perfect little gentleman. One thing, Ryder makes you work at first for his attention and cuddles. It takes him a minute to relax and trust you….but once he does, he’s yours! He is very quiet and could be an only dog…but he won’t be happy if you leave him alone for hours and hours. If you work from home, he would love to be your side kick…or your partner at brunch.
Ryder would be great in a home with kids over 8 yrs old, a family to take him on outings and just love him to life. He deserves a family…to make him happy and to make them complete! Is that you?
