Meet Hip Hop – The Sweetest Senior Shih Tzu Around!
Hip Hop is a Shih Tzu weighing about 10 lbs, and she’s ready to find her forever family! This little lady has come a long way—from being found roaming the streets and ending up in a crowded shelter, to now living her best life in a loving foster home. When she first arrived, Hip Hop was matted and had some hair loss from a flea allergy, but with a little TLC (and some cozy sweaters), she’s blossomed into the adorable, happy pup she was always meant to be.
Hip Hop is the definition of an easygoing companion. She loves lounging around the house and soaking up the comforts of home, but she also enjoys short backyard adventures with her dog friends. She’s been around dogs of all shapes and sizes—from a calm 5-year-old Jack Russell mix to an energetic 8-month-old Great Pyrenees mix—and she gets along with everyone. She’s even polite with cats!
Her true love, though, is people. Hip Hop adores being near her humans and will happily follow her chosen person from room to room, just to be part of the action. She’s wonderfully respectful—never underfoot or demanding attention—and she’s especially sweet with kids. In her foster home, she enjoys spending time with her 4- and 10-year-old human foster siblings, often curling up at their feet or patiently waiting for someone to lift her onto the couch for a snuggle.
Hip Hop has impeccable manners, is completely potty trained, and is as polite as they come. She’s the perfect companion for anyone looking to share their days with a gentle, loving senior who appreciates the finer things in life—lazy Sunday mornings, quiet companionship, and unconditional love.
If you’re looking for a loyal little friend to share your home and heart, come meet Hip Hop. We promise you’ll fall in love, just like we have.
Some medical things to note about her due to her senior age:
Has possible early kidney disease based on her SDMA
Has mildly elevated liver enzymes
May require a kidney-friendly diet long-term
Needs annual labs (or twice per year if you prefer proactive care)
Is otherwise comfortable, stable, and ready for a loving home
Day: December 6th at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM, an approved adopter must be present to adopt.
Some pups may stick around until 11:00 AM for the public event—check our Facebook page closer to the date to see if this pup will be attending the extra fun!
