Story

Rocco’s Personality Profile Social Butterfly: His love for other dogs and craving for attention makes him a great candidate for supervised doggy daycare or frequent park trips. Grooming Gold Star: Doing well with grooming is a huge win for a Shih Tzu mix, as their coats require significant upkeep. Student Athlete: He already knows "sit" and "paw"—since he’s food-motivated, he’ll likely pick up "lay down" or "roll over" very quickly. Engagement Ideas for Rocco Since he’s "very smart," he might get bored easily. Here are a few ways to channel that energy: Puzzle Feeders: Instead of a bowl, use a snuffle mat or a treat-dispensing toy. It turns mealtime into a game and rewards his intelligence. Advanced Tricks: Try teaching him "stay" or "spin." High-value treats (like small bits of plain chicken or freeze-dried liver) will make him a star pupil. Agility-Lite: Since he loves to play, even a small indoor tunnel or jumping over a low bar (like a broomstick) can be a fun way to burn energy. All dogs/puppies will be spayed/neutered unless spay/neuter contract is signed with additional deposit.

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.orgFebruary 28, 2026, 6:53 pm
