Shih Tzu puppies and dogs in Connecticut

Bam Bam is just an absolute love! He just got to foster care and is very confident in the new surroundings and just enjoying his freedom running in a fenced in yard and playing with his new dog friends. He gets along with all dogs, large & small. This snuggle bug would love to keep you warm, curling up in the bed at night. He is small but an active little guy, so he would love a fenced yard or access to a fenced area, because he likes spending time outside and really loves showing off his zoomies. Bam Bam is waiting for the perfect family to call his own. If you think it might be you, we'd love to hear from you. Bam Bam is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. All dogs 6 month + receive a Proheart 6 injection at the time of their heartworm test. This provides heartworm prevention for 6 months from the time of that injection. This dog has tested ****** for heartworms. The adoption fee is $450 if your adoption is prepaid and final prior to your dog's arrival. An additional $50 will be charged on dogs that are adopted at an event, or foster home. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with CT HB 5368. WANT TO MEET OUR DOGS IN PERSON? Check the Events tab on cprdogs.com for all weekend adoption event info. The majority of the dogs marked as 'meet me' will be there to see you! If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at our Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 11 am-1 pm. An additional $100 fee will be added for any dogs picked up from the Woburn MA quarantine facility. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with MA Order 405-CD-12 and Order 1-AHO-05. TO APPLY PLEASE GO TO www.cprdogs.com. If your application was successfully submitted you will get a confirmation. Please DO NOT USE the ADOPTAPET "CONTACT THIS RESCUE GROUP" form below or you may not hear from us as these often end up in spam or bouncing back. After receipt of your application, an adoption counselor will then be in touch to answer your questions about this pup, discuss the adoption process and get the ball rolling!

A dapper little gentleman with a fluffy coat, soulful eyes, and just the right amount of sass to keep life interesting. He’s the kind of pup who bonds quickly, loves being near his people, and carries himself like he knows he’s adorable (because… he absolutely is). The kind of dog who makes every day feel a little more entertaining. If you love a dog who communicates with looks, wiggles, and pure charm, Bentley is ready to steal the show. See the Bentley charm in action: https://youtu.be/RxXaQj6cA8Q We believe Bentley is a Shih Tzu mix, weighing around 13 pounds. He’s an easy size to travel with and include in daily life. He may be little, but he’s packed with personality and charm. As with any rescue, breed is always our best guess, but his wonderfully portable size is one thing we know for sure. Bentley is the ultimate low pressure socialite, greeting new canine friends with a wagging tail and a curious spirit that is endearing rather than overbearing. He is a master of the sidekick lifestyle, preferring to hang out nearby and keep life interesting with his quiet presence, punctuated by delightful bursts of fun energy. Bentley has also met a cat and is currently considered cat tolerant. Because of his interest level, a kitty sleepover would be the best way to get a fully defined answer. Bentley may be tiny, but he’s got big feelings and an even bigger heart! His ideal home is one that appreciates personality, a place that will engage him, guide him, and love him for the expressive little character he is. He could do well in a house or apartment. Bentley may be small, but his heart shows up in a big way every single day! He’s ready to share it. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/697fed9ff5202b9b8405ae3b Questions?
