Story

✨ Meet Sir Tashi - the sweetest little gentleman you'll ever know! ✨Sir Tashi is a 15-lb Shih Tzu, approximately 3 years old, with a heart as soft as his cuddles. He's playful, affectionate, and truly an all-around good boy with so much love to give.✔️ Doing great with potty training following other dogs through dog door. ✔️ Crate trained (sleeps in crate at night)✔️ Walks beautifully on leash✔️ Loves toys, playtime, and his foster siblings✔️ World-class cuddle bugSir Tashi also has a silly, mischievous side &#194&#151 he's a sock, shoe, and 'anything small enough to grab' thief 😄. He doesn't chew things up, but he will happily steal items to parade around or play with them. It's more funny than destructive, but it does mean keeping small items picked up.Sir Tashi is still learning and will need continued training. Like many Shih Tzus, he can be a bit stubborn, especially when it comes to house manners. He is making progress, but this breed does best with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Short, fun training sessions work best for basic commands, and adopters should expect a learning curve &#194&#151 particularly with housebreaking.Sir Tashi came into rescue alongside his Shih Tzu brother, Mister Tenzi (check k9ppr.org for his profile). While they are no longer fostered together and Sir Tashi will absolutely thrive independently, adopters interested in both brothers will receive a package adoption discount.💔 Important note: These boys were previously kept outdoors and neglected. Because of that, they will need a patient, understanding home committed to continuing basic manners and reinforcing potty habits as they settle into a new environment.Sir Tashi (or the two of them together!) would make a wonderful addition to a loving, committed family.Could that family be yours?⸻🐾 Adoption Requirements &#194&#149 Another dog required &#194&#149 Gentle children 10+ &#194&#149 Temperature controlled home- (Shih Tzus are prone to overheating) &#194&#149 Short walks only &#194&#149 Professional grooming every 6 weeks (not a low-maintenance breed)A detailed adoption application is required.Only applications that clearly meet the criteria and provide meaningful information will be considered. At K9 Paw Print Rescue, we believe every dog is a precious soul deserving of a home that truly fits them.👉 Apply at: www.k9ppr.orgJanuary 12, 2026, 12:43 am

Story

Meet Tenzi ✨Tenzi is simply gorgeous. While a fella shouldn't be judged on looks alone, it must be said&#194&#151he's quite the looker. With his soft, fluffy coat, beautiful markings, big dark eyes, and his tiny Van Dyke-style beard, he's undeniably dashing.Tenzi is a Shih Tzu, estimated to be 2-3 years old and about 14 lbs. He is gentle, playful, and affectionate, with a big love for toys&#194&#151especially balls. Blankets are his favorite treasures and will always be gathered into his bed. He enjoys both playtime and quiet cuddles on the couch.Sadly, Tenzi spent most of his life neglected and kept outdoors, which is especially inappropriate for this breed. Because of his past, he will need a patient, understanding home willing to help him continue learning basic manners and fully adjust to life as an indoor, pampered companion such a potty training which is going to take some time. ⸻🐾 Ideal Home & Requirements &#194&#149 Another dog required - he thrives with canine companionship &#194&#149 Gentle children ages 10+ &#194&#149 Indoor-only home with climate control (breed is prone to overheating) &#194&#149 Short walks only; not a high-endurance dog &#194&#149 Commitment to continued potty training & basic manners &#194&#149 Professional grooming every 6 weeks (regular brushing or kept clipped short)⸻🐶 Sibling NoteTenzi does have a Shih Tzu brother. While they are not being fostered together and it is not required that they be adopted as a pair, we would consider a slight adoption fee discount for an approved adopter interested in giving this duo a home together.⸻Tenzi's grooming was previously neglected, and his coat and ears required significant care when he arrived. This breed is not low maintenance, and adopters must be prepared to meet his ongoing grooming needs.With patience, structure, and love, Tenzi will make a devoted and affectionate companion who truly blossoms in the right home. 💛⸻📩 Adoption InfoA detailed adoption application is required. Only applications that clearly meet the criteria listed will be considered. Applications that do not reflect an understanding of Tenzi's needs or fail to share meaningful information about the applicant will not be considered.We believe every dog is a precious soul deserving of a home that truly fits them.👉 Apply at: www.k9ppr.orgJanuary 12, 2026, 12:43 am

Story

Thanks for checking out Boba! He was born on 7/10/24, making him 1.5 years old - a young adult in doggie world. Bought this MINI cutie from shih tzu lovers when he was 8-weeks old . His petite size is rare, weighing only 7.5lbs - 8lbs. On the outside, he's a cute little teddy bear. On the inside, a LION! 🤣 He's a loving cuddler and a lap dog, who needs belly rubs. ❤️ Negative: He's semi-potty trained. He'll pee on pee pads and poop nearby. He's smart though, so if you're a super patient dog trainer who can enforce structure and be consistent and reward him for pottying outside, I think you can improve this issue dramatically! Negative: He play bites at my hands regularly, which can be annoying. Barking isn't an issue for me. Shy around other dogs at first. Loves car rides. Medical records are from VCA Old River Animal Hospital & The Pet Advocate. He's due for his annual shots again. Needs to be seen for dandruff/yeast treatment, which started about two months ago.

Story

Meet Gustavo - a sweet, loving little boy! He is good with all people, kids, cats, and most other dogs. Gustavo really loves being around his people, so his forever home should include someone who likes to stay home or is able to take him out on adventures and errands with them. His favorite activities are chewing bones, sitting on laps, and finding small spaces to sit in. He's always looking for new comfy spots, and will get up and plop himself down several times throughout the day. Gustavo also religiously follows his people around the home, wanting to be close. With time and confidence, we expect that he will likely settle into his home and become more comfortable being further apart from his people. He also loves giving face, hand, and toe kisses, and is still learning that people don't like to play with his teeth (it's getting better every day!). He means no harm, but because of this, we'd suggest older kids would be a better fit for him. Though he does get along with many dogs outside of the home, he would do best as an only dog in the home. Gustavo is working on his leash manners, he currently zig zags a little but is starting to pick up how to walk nicely! He's potty trained (though sometimes will excited pee when he sees his people or gets hyped up) and can be left for a couple of hours at of time in a pen or crate. He likes his walks, but doesn't need much more than 30 mins at a time, though he gets bursts of zoomies at home and whizzes round to get his energy out. In between, he'll happily chill or entertain himself with chew or squeaky toys. Apply today to meet this adorable boy. He's a perfect little house or apartment dog, so easy to fall in love with!
