Story
Yukon is named after Yukon Gold and this little gold boy is an adorable potato! He and his brother (Russet now adopted) was rescued by one of our volunteers. Yukon is expected to be less than 20 lbs and is an approximately 10 week old Shih Tzu / chihuahua mix. Yukon is a very happy go lucky puppy and loves attention from people and other animals. He loves to play with his foster brothers and sisters but he also loves to get plenty of love from every person he comes in contact with. Yukon is working on potty training and cage training and he’s doing well but not quite there yet. Yukon has been socialized with other dogs and cats and he definitely loves to play with other animals so a dog friendly cat or a dog to play with is ideal for this little guy. Yukon would do best with another animal in the home to play with. Local adoptions will be considered first, as well as homes with other pups. Prior to meeting or adopting any of our wonderful animals, we ask that you please fill out our online application: https://form.jotform.com/223268341300041 We are a 100% volunteer organization and have to work other jobs to pay the bills. Please give us up to 48 hours to respond. Submission of an adoption application does not obligate you to adopt nor does it guarantee approval. We look forward to hearing from you.April 28, 2024, 2:51 am

Story
Charlie B (for Brown) Charlie B came into our Rescue right at the end of March. He was emaciated and his beautiful Shih Tzu coat shaved off because of mats down to the skin. We were told he was returned because quote, “He won’t drink out of a water bowl and he is skinny”. Neither of these claims made sense to us. Charlie B’s foster mom began feeding him smaller amounts numerous times a day to where in just less than a month, he went from 7.9 pounds to his ideal weight of 11.5 pounds. We can no longer see his hip bones protruding or every definition of his rib cage. Bravo Charlie B!! He also received a clean bill of health from our vet, was caught up on vaccines, and later was neutered, and his 2 floppy rear dew claws removed. Charlie B is now ready to begin his next step of his journey to his happy-ever-after. Charlie B LOVES to play with plush toys and chew on Nylabones. He has started learning fetch but only brings the toy back near to you and seldom releases it. He enjoys patrolling the back yard looking for acorns to eat so a watchful eye is kept on him. Charlie has learned to walk fairly well on a leash and harness but can pull if overly excited. He follows the command “sit” to perfection. He does fantastic riding in a car. His Foster Mom has a car seat just for smaller dogs in which he either sits up in it looking out the window or curls up to take a quick nap. Charlie B would do great in a home as an only dog or one that has a friendly pup his size or just a little bigger. He has one dog at his Foster Mom’s he likes to do the play dance with and run around the yard. He is good with most other dogs with a slow introduction because he gets so excited. He has not been tested with cats. He should also go to a home without small children. Charlie B really is a sweetheart of a dog. He LOVES his Foster Mom. He really likes belly rubs and curling up next to her to watch TV. He also LOVES house slippers, ha! He thinks they are perfect to sling around and chew on. We know that with an understanding home, Charlie B will blossom into a fabulous pup that Shih Tzu’s are known to be.
