Story
Norman is a sweet, gentle, and incredible dog. We rescued him from Tri-County Animal Shelter in Boca Raton in April 2021. He originally arrived at the shelter with his brother from Puerto Rico, but they were separated. Norman is a cuddly companion. He loves to snuggle and often sleeps curled up in the crook of my back. He is well-trained, rarely barks, doesn’t have accidents, or damage anything at home. He’s easygoing and friendly. He struggles with being left home alone. He doesn’t act, no destruction, no messes but he anxiously runs between the front door and the window, waiting and watching for his people to return. Because we live above an underground garage he hears that constantly thinking we are returning. Our dog sitter has told us he settles well when he is with the other dogs. We have tried behavioral and medications but we’re not consistent. He would be great with someone who works from home or is retired or additional pets. My partner is moving and I work full time.

Story
The Rescue Crew This special group of pups was saved from a high-kill shelter, where their future was uncertain. They spent some time in a foster home until space became available at Big Dog Ranch Rescue, giving them a safe and loving environment to grow and thrive. These pups are all dog-friendly, happy, and even enjoy the company of cats! They didn’t have a choice in where they ended up, but Big Dog Ranch heard their call for help and stepped in to give them a second chance. Since arriving, they have received all the medical care, love, and attention they need and are well on their way to becoming the perfect pets, ready to bring joy and companionship to their forever families.

Bentley

Shih Tzu

Male, 3 yrs 7 mos
Fort Lauderdale, FL
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Bentley is around 3 years old very special shitzu boy. He went through a lot in his life and it took us some time to help this unique boy on the right path. He used to be very grumpy and anti social, but we realized it was due to a medical reason. Bentley had a retinal detachment in his left eye, causing a lot of trouble with his behavior. Our amazing vet team had his left eye successfully removed and Bentley is adjusting very well into being a sweet, handsome one eye dog. He loves to roam around the house like a king and loves his foster parents and siblings. At first, Bentley can be little shy, anti social and bit grumpy, therefore he needs a very specific adopter. Preferably someone with bit of a patience who would be willing to give this boy bit of a space to adjust into a new home. Bentley can be very sweet companion, who loves to go out on walks, but doesn’t like to be approached by strangers. He absolutely loves car rides. He does well with other dogs as long as they give him space and are not too much in his face. Pretty much same applies to humans. He is the sweetest and most loving dog, but he needs to come to you on his own terms. Therefore he would be great as a companion for adults, definitely no young children who would not be able to understand that he simply doesn’t like to be bothered. Most funny thing about him is, that he is very specific about his doggy bed, he only likes certain type. Besides that, he absolutely loves to sleep on the chairs because in a way he can hide and at the same time have the best view of everything and everyone. Bentley can be bit vocal, therefore he would do better in the house rather than an apartment . DOB 4/2022 - 14lbs Adoption fee includes DHPP vaccine, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate) heartworm testing, spay/neuter surgery, deworming, wellness vet visit, one month of pet insurance and microchip. All animals are examined by a veterinarian. Please fill out our application at https://gkarma.wufoo.com/forms/good-karma-pet-rescue-dog-adoption-screening/ if you would like to adopt or meet this dog, and we will be in touch right away!
