My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

There's no one nipping at your toes here! Only JackFrost, this fantastic, adorable shih tzu!

JackFrost is an adult, male shih tzu who was an owner drop off at the Chicago Animal Care and Control. He was left with his friend, Chestnut, but not much is known about him. Out of the two of them, he was the one most damaged. This poor guy came in with over two pounds of matted hair that left him with his ears stuck to his body. His matting was so scary that hardened volunteers cried at the sight of him! Luckily for New Leash on Life Chicago swooped in just in time, and we were able to send him to a groomer right away. Be sure to check out these amazing "before and after pictures" on our Facebook page to see just how far he has come!

Even though he has had a bit of a rough start, this 15lb guy is a lover of life! Independent and clever, JackFrost is a dog who knows what he wants. Independent, he is looking for a home that will let him fit right in.

JackFrost would love to find a family that could work with him on obedience outside of the crate (we're a bit scared of them). Could you be that forever family that changes Jack's life? Let us know by visiting our adoption page for more information on fostering and adopting him!
