About

Meet Geronimo

Geronimo came to the shelter on November 8th as a local breeder release. He is a purebred shih tzu who could be around 3 years old. Geronimo is a friendly guy who is a little shy upon first meeting. He likes attention, however, and is very loving. He will be neutered on Nov. 19th and his fee is $200. Geronimo will need some training in all areas. He does seem to keep his kennel pretty clean so that's a good sign. He's looking for a home that has the time and patience to work with him. He has the potential to be a lot of fun. We do think he'd do well with other smaller dogs and probably cats. Kids over 10 would be best. He will require regular grooming. NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications must be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org. Keep an eye on your email if you apply. We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South. We do require that potential adopters be at least 21 years old and that any resident dogs be up to date on vaccinations, heartworm testing/preventatives, and spayed or neutered.
