Story
Kitty is an exquisite little Shih Tzu/Terrier mix with a sweet personality. She's about 1 year old and weighs between 12 and 15 pounds. (Because she's so small, any very young child in the home should have experience with such a little dog.) She loves toys and is very playful with other dogs. Shy at first, that doesn't last for long. Kitty came to us severely matted, so she will definitely need periodic grooming. What a delight this girl is! (posted 12/29/25, ME) Adoption Fee: $395.00-- covers microchip, worming, all vaccines, monthly heart worm preventative, monthly tick/flea preventative, spaying/neutering, health certificate, and complete medical records. Transport Fee: $160.00-- We consider the transport to be of great importance and, as such, take particular care of the dogs during the trip. We make every effort to arrive with healthy and minimally stressed dogs. **It is rare that we know with certainty the ages or mixes that make up our dogs, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible based upon our experience. **December 29, 2025, 3:31 pm

Story
Meet Cordova! Cordova is a spunky, confident 3-year-old Shih Tzu with a big personality packed into a small body. He does well with dogs his own size but would thrive best in a home where he’s the biggest dog, as he likes to feel in charge and can be a bit bold with larger pups. Cordova loves toys and is happiest when he’s playing or snuggled up close to his people. At night, he prefers sleeping on the bed with his humans and soaking up all the affection. He does great with children of all ages and would enjoy being part of an active, loving household. Cordova is not a good match for a home with cats, as he likes to chase them. With the right setup, he’ll make a fun, loyal, and entertaining companion. His adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccines, parasite prevention, and microchip.

Story
Gus is a 5 year old Shih Tzu mix who fully believes life is a party and he is the guest of honor. This outgoing little guy is a bundle of fun. Playful, social, and always ready to charm the room, Gus adores people and gets along beautifully with other dogs and cats. He is the kind of dog who makes friends fast and keeps them forever. Gus is crate trained, well mannered, and just an all around best boy. He would thrive in a home that enjoys laughter, cuddles, and a little daily joy wrapped up in a fluffy body. Adoption fee is $300 and covers neuter, vaccines, parasite prevention, and microchip. Apply at www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com Warning: adopting Gus may result in excessive smiling and an upgraded social life.

Story
Meet Bear – 12 Pounds of Pure Sass in a Fur Coat! Looking for a pint-sized tyrant with a heart of gold and the vocal cords of a banshee? Meet Bear, a one-person dog with big opinions and an even bigger attitude. Bear isn’t just a dog—he’s a lap-activated siren. If he’s not in your lap, he will let the heavens know. And don’t let his size fool you—Bear firmly believes he’s a Great Dane trapped in a shih tzu’s body and will take on dogs 10 times his size with the confidence of a canine gladiator. Warning labels include: Will bark until the spirits answer back Thinks scissors are weapons of mass destruction Believes he is the emperor of the living room (and he is right) Doesn’t like being corrected. He will file a complaint (loudly). But if you’re the chosen one—his person—you’ll have a fiercely loyal, hilariously dramatic, and ridiculously cuddly companion for life. If you're into tiny tyrants with a Napoleon complex and a heart of (somewhat prickly) gold, Bear is your guy. Est DOB: Oct 2024 * Est weight: 12#December 25, 2025, 4:16 pm
