T Bird Shih Tzu Puppy Male

Location:

Decatur, IL

Description:

Location Decatur, ILVisit leiashope.org for our adoption process NO SMALL CHILDREN T Bird (aka Little T) is the most sensitive of the puppies. He is more sensitive to sound and new experiences and is more cautious. When he is scared he will hide. When he does, please do not go and drag him out or pick him up. Instead wait for him to come out on his own or encourage him with rewards. Making the decision himself will help him with his confidence and let him feel in control. Forcing him out only reinforces the insecurity. T will benefit the most from continued Puppy Culture training. T Bird has been raised on Puppy Culture. Puppy Culture is a comprehensive program for new puppies that aims to optimize a puppy's physical and mental developement. The goal of the program is to raise confident and healthy puppies. Since birth T Bird has been handled, touched, stroked, smooched on and doted over. He has had many experiences to different sights, sounds (thunderstorm, dogs barking, TV, train, vacuum, hair dryer, etc.) and surfaces (grass, carpet, rock, vinyl, water, stairs, balance board, etc). In addition, he has had many opportunities to meet different people and dogs and go to different places. He has been taught to explore and try new things, how to communicate with people through manding, how to be creative in his thoughts and approaches to challenges, and been exposed to grooming equipment. T Bird needs someone to commit to continuing the Puppy Culture program and will foster confidence in him and not feed his insecurity. T Bird has been weaned on a raw diet and had his gut biome enhanced with a variety of different foods. Studies have shown this can help with gut health throughout the rest of his life. T Bird still gets a lot of his nutrition from mom (who also eats raw) and will need to remain with mom until fully weaned. He will also stay with foster mom until he receives his second round of vaccines. The approx date when T Bird will be able to go with his new family is July 27, but it could be sooner or later depending on when these two things happen. No worries, we will stay in touch with his family and provide updates. T Bird does have a small umbilical hernia that can be repaired at the time of neuter. T Birds adoption is $600.
