Story
Meet Shawn – A Gentle Soul Learning to Trust  Shawn is a 6-year-old Maltese/Poodle mix with a tender heart and a whole new world waiting to be discovered! Shawn is a sweet little fellow who is learning that life can be full of good things, like warm hugs, tasty treats, a soft place to rest, and people who genuinely care about him. He's a quieter more cautious little guy and while he may take a little longer to warm up, his foster mom is already seeing the affectionate dog hiding beneath that shy exterior. At first, Shawn would occasionally growl when something made him uncomfortable. He wasn't showing his teeth, but he was communicating that he needed a little space. His foster mom has learned that he doesn't particularly like sudden movements and prefers a calm, gentle approach. As he's become more comfortable in his new surroundings, his sweet personality has begun to shine through. He now happily accepts hugs and affection from someone he trusts! Shawn is making wonderful little strides every day. He's developing good eating habits, enjoying treats, and making encouraging progress with potty training. He's even learned to use the doggy door all by himself! He's also discovered how much fun it can be to run around the backyard! Toys are still unfamiliar to him, and leash training hasn't begun yet, but every new experience is helping him build confidence and discover the joys of being a dog. Shawn isn't crate trained, and his future family should be prepared to continue working on potty training and helping him learn the routines of a loving home. He's also quite the little backyard watchdog when squirrels make an appearance! Because Shawn is sensitive to quick movements and unfamiliar situations, we believe he would do best in a quieter, patient household, ideally with adults or older, gentle children who understand how to give a dog time and space to feel comfortable. His compatibility with cats is unknown. Shawn may not be the dog who rushes into your arms the moment you meet him, but give him time, kindness, and a little patience, and you just might discover a very special friendship.For someone who finds joy in helping a shy dog build confidence and learn to trust, Shawn could be an incredibly rewarding companion. Could you be the person who helps Shawn's next chapter become his very best one? ##2859967##

Story
Meet Gumbo – A Little Love Bug with a Big Heart!  Gumbo is a 6-year-old Maltese/Poodle mix who is discovering just how wonderful life can be when you're surrounded by love! Gumbo is a sweet, affectionate little guy who absolutely adores his people. If there's an opportunity to be held, cuddled, or showered with attention, Gumbo is first in line! He's the more outgoing of two brothers and has quickly formed a special bond with his foster mom. He's a little love bug who wants nothing more than to be close to someone who loves him. But with good food, gentle care, and plenty of affection, Gumbo is beginning to blossom! He's making encouraging progress with potty training and has already learned how to use the doggy door! Gumbo is discovering the joy of spending time outside, and one of his foster mom's favorite things is watching him run around the backyard doing happy little zoomies! Toys are still a mystery to him, but he's learning to enjoy treats, explore his surroundings, and soak up all the attention he can get. Gumbo isn't crate trained yet, and leash training will be another new adventure. He can also be quite vocal, whether he's alerting everyone to squirrels in the yard or letting his foster mom know he'd like some attention. Because he's become so attached to her, he sometimes whines when she leaves, although he does settle down after a while. His future family will need to be patient as he learns to feel secure and comfortable spending time on his own. Gumbo may be a good fit for a family with gentle, respectful children, although his interactions with children and cats haven't yet been evaluated. A home where someone has plenty of time for affection, consistency, and positive reinforcement would be wonderful for him. Gumbo doesn't need a perfect home. He needs a loving one where he can continue learning, growing, and discovering all the wonderful things he's been missing. In return, you'll have a devoted little companion with a whole lot of love to give!  Could Gumbo be your new favorite cuddle buddy? ##2859968##

Story
Meet Broggy & Zenku! Broggy and Zenku are adorable 1-year-old brothers who are new to rescue and just beginning their journey toward finding forever homes. These handsome boys are a mix of Maltese, Poodle, and Shih Tzu, bringing together three favorite little-dog breeds! They are still settling into their new surroundings, and their personalities are beginning to emerge as they get comfortable with rescue life. We'll share more about their temperaments, likes, and what they're looking for in a home as we get to know them better. For now, these two brothers are ready for a fresh start and the chance to find families who will give them the love, patience, and security every dog deserves. Stay tuned as we learn more about Broggy and Zenku! Please apply at tzuzoorescue.com if you are interested in adopting from Tzu Zoo Rescue. More information available by contacting tzrinquiries@tzuzoorescue.com. [NOTE: We are a rescue NOT a shelter, meaning WE DO NOT HAVE A FACILITY THAT OPENS TO THE PUBLIC. Typically, an application and home visit (both of which are required for adoption) MUST be completed, BEFORE a potential adopter will be introduced to one of our pets, in order to first determine that our basic adoption requirements are met, prior to introductions being made. We also utilize personal reference and vet checks (to ensure that any pets already in the potential adoptive home are current on vaccines, heart worm prevention and sterilized) in our adoption process, all of which is intended to ensure that the best match, between pet and people, is made. The adoption fee is based on on the dog's age.

Story
First and foremost, I am ONLY rehoming her due to my health issues. She is the SWEETEST dog EVER. Sophie is a GREAT alert dog, only really barks if somebody is too close to the door. She loves laying on pillows, getting massages and belly rubs. She does High 5 and give hugs. Sophie is 10 years old but life expectancy for a Morkie (half Yorkie and half Maltese= Morkie) is 17 to 25 years. She is in great health, has great teeth, clean, clean ears. Sophie is not house broken but if you have a house with a SECURE back yard and take her out WITH YOU, no worries. I put her in diapers, just cheap baby diapers size 2 in the house, she's fine. Occasionally I glove up and shampoo her bootie. Sophie is wonderful with kids but she is scared of all other animals. She would be best to be the only pet. Serious inquiries only.
