These castaways washed up on Milo’s doorstep sick and terrified. With proper medical care, good food and daily attention, they are slowly learning they are safe. It’s taking us time to work through the shyness, but it’s very evident that they just want to be with people they love. With patience and TLC, these sweet Shih Tzus are blossoming into loving companions. Skipper is the most outgoing and engaged of this bunch. He is bigger than his sibs, and is always in front of them in case they need protecting. He is super playful and food motivated. Once he trusts you he loves to roll over for some belly rubs.

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Howell/Ace of Hearts is getting over his skittishness and showing his playful, cuddly side. He’s a really sweet, soft, perfect-sized dog (20 lbs), with sweet grey-brown coloring and an adorable heart shaped patch of white fur on his chest. He’s youthful and playful, but has a chill, low-maintenance personality. Right now, he’s bonding with women and slower to come around to men, but that should change with time. With his current foster mom, he is affectionate, obedient and attentive. He cooperates with putting on his harness for walks but lifting each leg in turn, and is very gentle and well behaved on the leash. He seems fine with other dogs, showing interest and appropriate behavior. He likes to play a lot, chasing his new favorite squeaky ball and rag toy, but not manic or zany. He’s very quiet, and has only barked a little when he’s seen a squirrel in a tree and when he gets especially excited to play. He loves to sit outside under a bush chewing on his bone toy for hours. He’s taken to collecting socks and shoes from around the house, but hasn’t chewed on anything except his toys. He’s sleeping well at night in his dog bed. He shows no signs of aggression at all - has a very gentle mouth for taking treats. When he’s uncomfortable, his tail drops and he retreats. He’s going to make a lucky family very happy, and it suited to an active family where a female can take the lead at the beginning and continue to let him relax into his true, sweet, loving nature with everyone.

Story

Alistair is a 15-year-old we rescued from a dog hoarding situation. He has come a long way & he is now calm, quiet, affectionate, and deeply loyal once he trusts you. He does bark. Ever. He is low-energy, obedient, and content to just be near his person. Some Considerations: His past still shows. He must be the only pet (or with a very calm small dog). No cats, big dogs, or kids under 10. He is stressed by loud noises and city life. He cant use stairs; we carry him for potty access. He needs someone home most of the day. He has arthritis, a sensitive stomach, only 5 teeth, and an upcoming $2-5K medical procedure. Who he needs: A calm, patient person with a quiet home, flexible schedule, and readiness for senior dog care. He takes time to warm up and may retreat when overwhelmed. That is normal for him. He is not for everyone. But for the right person, he is a sweet, quiet companion who just wants a peaceful place to live out his golden years.
