My personality

My story

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

Meet Auggie – The Sweetest Shih Tzu with a Freckled Nose!

Oh my gosh…is Auggie not the cutest dog ever? This 2-year-old, 17-pound Shih Tzu has the sweetest freckled nose and a personality to match! Auggie’s journey to us wasn’t easy — he was surrendered by owners who kept him outside most of the time, where he would often escape the yard. Thanks to a kind neighbor, Auggie was rescued, groomed (he was very matted!), checked by the vet, and placed into a loving foster home where he’s thriving.

Auggie is a perfect mix of fun and calm. He adores everyone he meets, loves spending time outside, and would thrive in a home with a safe yard where he can hang out with you while you garden or relax on the patio. He also gets along wonderfully with playful dogs, so a furry companion would be ideal for him. Auggie is happiest when he has company and isn’t left alone for long stretches — he’s a true social sweetheart who loves being part of the action.

This adorable boy is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped — and he’s ready to find his forever family where he can be spoiled with love and attention. Trust us, once you meet Auggie, you’ll fall in love instantly!

More about this rescue

THE FORGOTTEN DOG FOUNDATION rescues, rehabilitates and re-homes shelter, stray, abused and abandoned dogs. Our goal is to place our rescues in foster homes rather than in boarding facilities. After temperament assessment, needed veterinary services, and lots of attention and socialization we carefully screen and place these dogs in loving forever homes.
