My story

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

Tickle is a 10-year-old male Shih Tzu with a soft soul and a story that proves just how tough little dogs can be. Despite some hard times in his past—including skin issues, healing lacerations, and a coat that's a bit on the thin side—Tickle is nothing but sweet.

He also has a heart murmur that will need ongoing monitoring by his future adopters, but don’t let that scare you off—Tickle’s more than ready to settle into a calm, loving home where he can finally enjoy the comfort and care he deserves.

Tickle is gentle, affectionate, and thrives on quiet companionship. He’s not looking for much—just a warm spot to nap, a human who’s kind, and maybe a soft sweater or two for chilly days.

If you’re looking for a mellow, loving dog to share your heart and home, Tickle is ready to spend his golden years living the good life—with you.
