Story
Cardamom has already proven she will do anything for the ones she loves. Before coming to rescue, Cardamom was kept outside year-round. During the bitter cold of winter, she gave birth to and raised three puppies outdoors. Somehow, thanks to her incredible devotion and survival instinct, all three puppies made it through. By the time she arrived here, every hair on her body was matted. Her coat was one solid tangle, so she had to be completely shaved to give her a fresh start. Her hair is still short right now, but it will grow back beautifully. At around 3 years old, Cardamom is a sweet Shih Tzu who gets along wonderfully with other dogs and cats. She has left her difficult past behind and is ready to enjoy the comfortable life she always deserved. After spending her life taking care of everyone else, it's finally Cardamom's turn to be the one who is loved and cared for. Good fit: someone looking for a sweet, gentle companion who gets along well with other pets and deserves a lifetime of comfort. Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), we always take our dogs back. Location: Oklahoma (available to approved out-of-state adopters via transport) Health: Fully vetted (neutered/spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested) Adoption fee: $550 (includes transport + vetting) Bonus: Each adoption includes a 30-minute phone consultation with a professional trainer Transport routes: WA, OR, ID, MT, UT, WY, CO, MN, WI, IA, IL, IN, OH, PA, MD, NY, NJ Think you might be a good fit?

Story
Meet Crunch, a 2-year-old, 9.5-pound Shih Tzu with a heart as big as his adorable face! This happy-go-lucky little guy is always ready to brighten your day with his sweet personality and easygoing nature. Crunch gets along wonderfully with dogs and cats, making him a great addition to a variety of homes. He’s happiest when he’s close to his people, whether that’s curled up beside you on the couch, following you around the house, or soaking up a good snuggle. While he’ll settle nicely into his crate at night, he’d much rather be snoozing somewhere nearby. He’s a polite walker on leash and enjoys getting out to explore. Crunch is still working on his housetraining, so he’ll need a family that’s committed to helping him continue building good habits with patience and consistency. If you’re looking for a cheerful little companion who will happily be your shadow and your cuddle buddy, Crunch is ready to steal your heart! Crunch is being fostered in Mead, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs.* You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/crunch/. You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
Pinto, shih tzu, 12 yo, 12.5 lb, male, neutered Pinto is an active 12-year-old shih tzu. He is very friendly with people and is thriving in a multi-dog household. He can use the dog door, was very well behaved at his grooming appointment. He enjoys the backyard, but will need secure fencing to keep him from exploring!  He is affectionate and playful, although he may need a little guidance in refreshing his household manners. He is a wonderful companion dog looking for his forever home. He is so cute both groomed and ungroomed that we provide both pictures :))  Adoption fee $200.

Story
Panda  does have glaucoma and needs daily eye drops . PRANCING PANDA - This is a ...so-ugly-she's-cute little furball only wants two things: 1) to lay by your feet, and 2) to PRANCE across a grassy field!   When Panda arrived, we thought she was just a frail, blind Shih Tzu, but with a healthy diet, some love and lots of walks, she has rediscovered joy and is more tail-waggy every day. She's completely won over our hearts. Yes, Panda is mostly blind and mostly deaf, but that doesn't stop her from trying to be by your side and happily trotting along in the yard or during walks.    Panda is housebroken, quiet, docile, a great eater, a great sleeper (sleeps through the night) and is a surprisingly fantastic walker on a leash. She is indifferent to other dogs or cats and doesn't really play, but that might change with time. Panda would be perfect for a home looking for a very chill cuddle buddy with yard or park access. She would not be a playmate with kids and couldn't live an active outdoor life. She requires eye drops for her glaucoma and is mostly deaf. At first she might whine in her cage, but with time and crate training, she quickly becomes comfortable at night on her own.   If you want the joy of earning love by giving love, Panda is the galloping gal for you.  Put in an appliucation at eapl.com Her adoption fee is $375         July 21, 2026, 7:36 pm
