Semper Fi Shih Tzu Adult Male for sale in Charlotte, North Carolina

Semper Fi's story
Meet Semper Fi, a 13 pound Shih Tzu mix. He is known to many as Handsome Henry and lovingly referred to as Hank. Truth be told, he has a mug only a mother could love!  Semper came to us earlier this summer after being thrown from a moving vehicle, his legs and muzzle bound with wire. What may be considered a miracle, he survived. His body is whole, but his jaw was broken beyond repair, giving him a perpetual crooked grin. Semper is now basically a healthy boy (no big crunchy treats for him because of the misalignment of his jaw). Due to his life journey thus far, he will display personal boundary issues, much like PTSD. It can take a LONG while for him to warm up to you and feel comfortable. His is a fragile presence, at times seeking out love, comfort, playtime or cuddles from you (which he adores). Other times, with a growl or bark and snap of his crooked muzzle, he lets you know that he needs his space. Semper loves napping and playing with toys and with proper introduction, has shown his ability to interact well with other dogs his size. Semper Fi will continue to grow his trust in a home without young children (older teensmaybe) and an unending amount of patience, compassion and acceptance. Semper Fi is up to date on shots, neutered, house and crate trained. In the right environment and with time, Semper Fi will indeed prove to be, "Forever Faithful.

***Because our rescue is composed entirely of volunteers and we require a home check for each of our adoptable pets prior to them going to their new homes, local applications will take precedence. We will accept out of town applications, but any family further than 60 miles from Charlotte is responsible for finding a representative of a rescue local to them that is willing to perform the home check. All out of town applicants will also have to be willing to drive to Charlotte to meet/pick up the pet as soon as the application is approved.***
