Dot is an 8 year old girl who came from a situation where she was churning out puppies on a regular basis. We are guessing Shih Tzu and terrier cross for this 8 year old 17 pound girl. She measures 13 inches at the shoulder. Dot is house and dog door trained. She is working on her leash-walking skills but could use some additional practice. Dot gets along well with humans she knows, but she can still be a bit shy with strangers. NO children - she is frightened and defensive around small or active children. NO cats - her inner terrier is way too interested in pussycats. Dot does get along well with other mellow dogs, and she loves going hiking and exploring. She is NOT a couch potato or lap pet, contrary to her appearance. This girl wants to rumble! Dot is in foster care in the Boise area. Her adoption fee is $200.
