Story
Everyone say hi to Arfie, a 7.5 year old 28 lb shih tzu boy. Yes you read that right, Arfie weighs 28 lbs and is in need of a home that will take him on walks and give him the opportunity to shed some much needed pounds---with that said this little boy is an " absolute gentleman" according to his foster mom. Arfie came to us after his elderly owner was unable to care for him longer due to her own personal issues----Arfie has come a long way from intake when he was all of 39lbs!!! He just wants to please everyone, has excellent house manners and deserves a chance at a great life in a loving home. He gets along with EVERYONE and is a soft and kind hearted soul....he has yet to meet a person he doesn't wag his little tail at and asks to say hello to. Arfie has a history of seizures and is on medication where it controlled now that he has been seen and treated for it by our veterinary team. He also is allergic to chicken and chicken by-products but is doing great on a diet of salmon and sweet potato kibble which is sold over the counter. If interested in adopting this darling boy please fill out an application at www.floridacockerrescue.org ADOPTION FEE: $300.00

Story
Hello friends! My name is Toby and I’m a distinguished 10-year-old, 13lb Shih Tzu boy with excellent hair and lots of opinions. I come with luxury fluff, soulful eyes, and the quiet confidence of someone who has seen things (mostly squirrels). My hobbies include patrolling the backyard like it’s my personal kingdom, conducting detailed sniff investigations, and supervising absolutely everything my human does. Speaking of my human: I prefer to be within a 3-foot radius at all times. Five feet is negotiable. Six feet? Unacceptable. If you mysteriously disappear behind a closed door, I will file a formal (and vocal) complaint. It’s not barking — it’s passionate communication. (Translation: NO apartments or condos for me…a single family home with a yard is my dream and someone who’s home most of the time.) I get along great with other dogs. I’m friendly, polite, and drama-free. Do I chase them around the yard? No. Do I wrestle? Absolutely not. I am ten. I prefer dignified companionship. We can coexist peacefully and then cuddle like civilized creatures. I’m a perfect gentleman when it comes to potty manners and I ride like a champ in the car. As for leash walking, my foster Mom and I are trying it out. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick who will adore you, guard the yard from suspicious leaves, and warm your lap like a tiny, fluffy heater — I’m your guy.
