If you're a patient, diligent and understanding pet owner, continue reading. All others ... be afraid, be very afraid. Not that a cute little 2-year-old Shih-tzu like Leona is anything to fear, but she has a few failings. She unfortunately was kept in a kennel most of her life, so she needs basic Dog Training 101 — house-training, not eating the garbage, etc. However, if you're willing to give Leona that education you will be rewarded. Leona is a charming and curious canine, great in the car, gets along with other dogs, kids and cats and is an excellent lap-warmer.
