Lone Star Shih Tzu and Lhasa Apso Rescue

We've had shih tzu's as family pets for over 30 years. Obviously we are well versed with the breed. However, for some unknown reason we did not meet Lone Star's standards. They wouldn't tell us why so we could correct whatever it was they viewed as a problem. Additionally, they were trying to get us to adopt a different dog than what we asked for (our first pick was still available). The dog they wanted us to have was more expensive. The dog we wanted was older, hence less expensive. It wasn't a matter of money; just that they were trying to force another dog on us. When we refused, they cancelled our application. The woman who did our home visit doesn't pronounce the name of the breed correctly. We were more than willing to adopt, but with all the hoops they force people to jump through, we will meet up with a breeder. With 170 something dogs to home, Lone Star is ridiculously picky. We left a similar review on facebook, but Lone Star deleted it; they only want 4 and 5 star ratings.
