Story
Kubo is a one of a kind little dog with a huge heart. He bonds deeply with his person and wants to be wherever you are. He loves to snuggle, follow you from room to room, and sleep right beside you. He thrives on connection and does best in a home where someone is around most of the day. He is very active and athletic for his size and loves long walks, hikes, and playtime. He has great stamina and needs consistent exercise and attention to stay happy. He is a confident little alert dog and will always let you know when someone is at the door. Kubo had 29 teeth removed due to dental decay and now has 13 remaining. His food needs to be softened with warm water, and he cannot chew hard or stray food.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Gibson is the perfect mix of companionship and independence. This sweet boy would thrive in a home with older children or in an adult-only home — he’s truly adaptable and could fit beautifully into almost any loving environment. Gibson is great with other dogs and enjoys having canine friends around. He loves going for walks, playing with his toys, and then settling in for some quiet time. He’s working on his potty training currently as well as his grade training. Both are going very well. While Shih Tzus are known for bonding closely with their people, Gibson is a confident little gentleman. He enjoys being near you — especially if you’re working from home — and will happily sit by your side in the office without being overly needy. He’s independent, well-balanced, and just wants a cozy spot in a home to call his own. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who can match your energy on walks but also relax quietly by your side, Gibson may be your perfect match. 💙

Nico was given to me as a pup. He’s been showing signs of aggressiveness since a puppy. He still likes to play at times and gets happy when we walk in the door. He is very unpredictable though. He is very smart though and mostly only gets upset when he gets picked up
