PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING!
Hi, I’m Chewy — your future little shadow with big, soulful eyes and an even bigger heart. 💛
I’m a 2.5-year-old **Shih Tzu** gentleman weighing in at a perfect nine pounds of pure devotion. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will happily follow you from room to room, congratulations… you just found him.
I absolutely love being near my humans. In fact, I prefer it. I’ll trail behind you wherever you go, and if you need further proof of my dedication, I’ll stand on my hind legs until you scoop me up. I mean… how could you not? I’m a professional cuddler and fully believe laps were invented just for me.
I already know some commands like “sit,” “down,” “stay,” and “paw,” and I walk nicely on a leash. I’m house trained (no redecorating your furniture, promise!) and I get along well with small dogs, older cats, and respectful older children (10+). I can be a little shy and nervous at first, but once I bond with you, I am playful, sweet, and endlessly loving.
Now, let’s talk about my ideal home:
I’m hoping for a small family (1–3 people) who is home often. I don’t enjoy being left alone — I just love my people too much! I’m working on my potty training and managing my separation anxiety, but if you’re around most of the time, it’s barely an issue. I would do great in an apartment, townhome, or a house with a yard (fenced or not — I’m not picky, as long as I’m with you!).
Most importantly, I need a home that will let me sleep in the big bed. I simply want to be close to my person — always.
If you have a lap available for a nine-pound ball of love to happily claim as his own — and you’re ready to spoil the “Shiht” out of me — I’m ready to be the sweetest little companion you’ll ever meet.
One look into my big eyes, and I promise… you’ll be completely smitten. 🐾
