Story
Meet Ozzy, an 18-pound shihtzu/poodle mix. Our vet estimates his age as three to four years old. Ozzy is the ultimate cuddle bug — his favorite place in the world is right on your lap, showering you with endless love and kisses. He walks wonderfully on a leash and even lifts his legs up to help you put his harness on (how adorable is that?). He loves following his foster mom anywhere she goes around the house and is always looking up at her with those gorgeous puppy dog eyes. He is very affectionate and just wants to find his forever home that will treat him like the little prince he is! Ozzy is an absolute sweetheart who adores people, he is amazing with cats, and gets along well with dogs. He prefers to have a little personal space from other dogs so he would do best in a home with calm dogs who respect his space. He will do a little mini growl if a dog is getting too rambunctious and in his personal space, but he has never shown any aggression towards another dog. He’s crate-trained, knows how to use a doggy door, and is doing great with his potty training. With a little positive reinforcement (and plenty of treats), he’s eager to please and quick to learn. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion who just wants to be by your side, Ozzy is your guy!

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

Story
Hi I'm tinkerbell! Nice to meet you! I'm a darling little granny havanese/shih Tzu mix-best guess? a little bit of hearing and sight impairment but definitely does not deter me from anything! I'm a foodie, love to be cozy, and also enjoy short walks as well as walks in the stroller! I love being around people and enjoying the finer things in life. Wanna be my best friend and enjoy the golden years together? please note All of our dogs are in private foster homes. Once you fill out an application it will be screened by our volunteer adoption team. From there, if your application looks like a good fit for the particular dog, it will be sent to the foster where you can ask all the questions you would like and schedule a meet and greet. We do not transport our dogs. If you apply from out of state we do request you come to Los Angeles to meet us and fly home in cabin or drive. www.apurposefulrescue.org
