Herbie

Shih Tzu Poodle (Miniature)

Male, 1 yr 1 mo
Torrance, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Herbie!Herbie was found as a stray by a kind Good Samaritan who kept him safe during his stray hold. When we were asked if Rover’s Retreat could help, we took one look at that adorable underbite and couldn’t say no! This handsome little guy is about 1 year old, weighs 10½ pounds, and is believed to be a Shih Tzu mix. Herbie can be a bit shy when meeting new people and likes to take his time getting comfortable, but a little chicken goes a long way toward winning his heart. Once he trusts you, you’ll have a loyal friend for life. Herbie is looking for patient adopters who understand that he may need time to settle in and are willing to work with him through any challenges that may come up along the way. He would love lots of opportunity to play. He walks beautifully on leash, loves his daily strolls, and enjoys being part of the action. With the right family, Herbie is going to blossom into an amazing companion. If you’re looking for a sweet, adorable little dog and are willing to give him the time and understanding he deserves, Herbie may be the perfect match for you! Herbie is being fostered in Redondo Beach. Questions can be emailed to Danelle@roversretreat.org The adoption application can be found at roversretreat.org Herbie's adoption fee is $600

Story
How darling is Dumpling! This endearing little 16-year old granny is pure sweetness, and currently weighs 8-lbs, though we are hoping to put some weight on her. Dumpling is blind and has spinal arthritis, but otherwise appears healthy, except for some anemia for which she takes iron. She is also missing many teeth but she has a great appetite and loves to eat. Dumpling is quiet and one of her favorite pastimes is sleeping. She’s super easy and will make a fabulous couch buddy and best friend. Dumpling is up to date on shots, microchipped, fully vetted including x-rays, and will be spayed. Adoption process includes application, interview, home visit, contract and donation. If you are interested in Dumpling, please go to our website at homeforeverylivingpet.org and fill out an application. We do not adopt out of state.
