Bert
Shih Tzu Cross
Bert is an 8-year-old male Shih Tzu cross who weighs 12kg. He has had some negative experiences leading to fears around new people and requires a slow, patient introduction with multiple visits to build trust. Once he trusts you, he is playful, energetic and loving, though he does have some resource guarding issues that will need experienced, positive management.
In the care of Mid Antrim Animal Sanctuary, Antrim.
