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

Story
Alfred is a 3 year old Shih Tzu with a story that will tug at your heart and a personality that will instantly make you smile. Before rescue, Alfred did not know comfort or care. He was found in horrible condition, painfully matted, and living with a broken jaw that had gone untreated. For who knows how long, this little guy quietly endured pain no dog should ever experience. Somehow, he kept going and held onto his sweet spirit. Fast forward to now and Alfred is healing beautifully and ready for a home of his very own. Despite everything he has been through, Alfred is hands down one of the happiest boys around. His tail is almost always wagging, he adores people, and he is full of love. He gets along well with other dogs, enjoys car rides like a total pro, and his favorite place is snuggled up close to his people. His jaw healed a little crooked, giving him a permanent lopsided smile, and we find it completely endearing. Alfred is proof that a rough past does not define a dog. He is joyful, affectionate, and ready to soak up all the love he missed out on. Adoption fee is $400 and covers neuter, vaccines, parasite prevention, and microchip. If you are looking for a loyal little companion with a heart of gold and a smile that will melt you daily, Alfred is your guy.

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.
