Surrendering a Dog

STRMN Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota

Shih Tzu rescue of Minnesota accepts dogs from people in all situations. You may be moving, there may

have been a divorce or a death in a family, you may have found a stray, or you are not able to care for

the dog anymore. We also accept dogs that have health issues and behaviors we feel can be corrected

if we have an appropriate foster home available. Shih Tzu Rescue of MN is not a hospice rescue.

We encourage you to read the information provided on the “ADOPTION INFO” page of our website so

you understand the care and adoption process for the dog.

Our owner surrender process is as follows:

Step 1: Complete and submit our online intake questionnaire (below). Because Shih Tzu Rescue of

Minnesota puts much effort into arranging a foster home as soon as we receive the questionnaire, we

ask that you complete the form only if you definitely want Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota to take your

Shih Tzu and you are not currently also pursuing other options such as advertisements, finding another

home with friends or relatives, other rescues groups, etc. Once we receive your completed

questionnaire we will contact you within 24 hours to let you know if STRMN will be able to help you, or if

we need further information from you regarding the dog. Please be very thorough and honest in your

responses to each question so we can determine the best foster home for the dog.

Step 2: If, and only if, we determine we are able to take your dog into foster care, we will ask you to

do the following:

1. Make a $20.00 non-refundable surrender donation to Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota

2. Ask your Veterinarian for copies of the dogs Health and Medical records. STRMN does provide a

Wellness Vet Check for each dog, but we are careful not to repeat any medical procedures that are

current for the dog.

3. A Release of Ownership 2 page form will be sent to you by email. This must be completed and

either returned to us by email, or to us when the dog is picked up. We ask that you be very detailed

with the responses to the questions so we can best understand your dog’s habits and behaviors.

4. Arrange for the transport and pick up of the dog with our intake or transport coordinator
