My story

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

Nugget is a gentle, three-year-old Shih Tzu mix with a heart full of love. This sweet boy wants nothing more than to be by your side and feel safe. He’s still learning about the fun things in life—treats, toys, and going for walks—and he’s making wonderful progress every day.

When he first arrived, Nugget had some mats in his coat and was underweight, but with care and patience he’s looking and feeling so much better. His skin is healing beautifully, his hair is growing back, and he’s eating well and gaining healthy weight. He also came in with a cloudy eye/cornea scratch, but thanks to daily ointment, it’s improving steadily.

Nugget needs a home with a gentle, patient person who will reassure him, guide him, and show him kindness. Once he trusts you, he’ll be your loyal little shadow and a loving companion.

If you’re looking for a tender-hearted pup to cherish and help flourish, Nugget may be the perfect match.

Thank you for your interest in one of our Hero Babies! Before inquiring, we thought it was important to share a few of our policies.

Your Current Pets - We do require that your current dogs and cats are current on vaccines and spayed/neutered.

Adoptions - We do not have a shelter and are a foster-home based organization. We do require that you have an approved adoption application to schedule a meet and greet. You can fill out an adoption application on our website, www.herorescue.org/adopt. Once your application is approved it will be sent to the foster family that is currently caring for the dog. They will be able to provide information on likes, dislikes, personality, etc. They will also schedule a time for you to meet the dog. We do require a home visit prior to adoption.

Inquiries - If you would like more information on any dogs in the rescue, please email us at info@herorescue.org.
