    Hi there! My name is Max McFurry and I am a 4 month old, Shih Tzu mix, who is in search of my forever family. Here are a few things you may want to know about me. - I am working on my potty training and need someone who can let me outside to do my business every few hours.  - I sleep through the night like a champ. - I am crate trained. - I love being snuggled and held. I do best when close to my people. - I can be a little shy when I meet new people, but warm up quickly. - I am still working on being adventurous and trying new things, but have made great progress in my foster home. - See all my beautiful fur? I will definitely need frequent grooming.   If you have time, patience and a lot of love to give, I may be just the pup you are looking for. An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions.

Story
    Roscoe Ricky is a 10-month-old Shih Tzu mix weighing about 25 pounds with a fun, playful personality. He’s a happy puppy who loves life, loves people, and especially loves playing fetch.   Roscoe Ricky is house-trained and crate-trained and gets along great with other dogs. Because he’s still a puppy, he has plenty of playful energy and will do best with adopters who can give him regular exercise, like long walks, playtime, or a fenced yard where he can run and burn off some energy.     He would make a wonderful family dog for a home that understands puppy energy and is ready to continue guiding him as he grows. Roscoe Ricky is a sweet, fun-loving companion who is ready to bring lots of joy and playtime to his forever home.      An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions.

Story
This young, tiny Shih Tzu is going to be available for adoption into her forever home very soon. I received her as a foster on December 14, 2025. On December 17, she gave birth to 4 baby shih tzus. She came to me named Missy, which we have continued to call her. However, I have added Tzu as her middle name “Missy Tzu”. She is expected to be around two years old. Missy Tzu absolutely nailed it in her mama roll. I watched the baby give birth to four beautiful babies of her own. She protected them, fed them, cleaned them, and constantly made sure they were all accounted for. She was incredible and it was amazing and entertaining to watch her and her puppies. At eight weeks, the puppies were all adopted into their forever homes and Missy was able to begin her life, again, as a young, happy, little dog. Missy Tzu went to the veterinarian, on Tuesday February 22, to have her cherry eye repaired and to be spayed. She has healed beautifully and is ready for her new home. Missy has an issue that I must mention. She does not understand to let her human know that she needs to go outside to potty. She has improved, in this area, since she stopped nursing the puppies, but not completely. When she is taken outside, she does her business; she just doesn’t know to tell someone when she needs to go. My vet said that sometimes shih tzus can be hard to train, but she ensured me that she is trainable. Missy Tzu loves all other dogs whether they are big or small and she likes cats. If I did not already have two dogs of my own, I would 100% adopt this baby. She is 9 lbs of pure joy and personality and I love her very much. She is cute, funny, playful, loving, smart, and just overall precious. If I could keep her, I would get professional help with the potty training since I have not yet been able to fully train her. As her foster mama, who loves her very much, I wish for her: 1) A patient, loving human who is willing to do whatever it takes to get her house trained. She needs someone who is really good at dog training and/or willing to pay for professional help. 2) A fenced backyard. Missy is not a runner. She likes to be with her people, but just for safety sake, she needs a fenced backyard or someone to stay out with her at all times. As a side note, she had never been on a leash when she came to me. She learned very quickly to walk with a leash and does so good now. 3) A friend to play with. She loves to play so much! She will play until she drops! I would love for her to have a little playmate/companion.

Story
Say Hello to Edith, the Ewok - the cutest, sweetest girl around!    Edith is about 7-8 years and just over 20 lbs. She’s very chill and happy to lay on her favorite bed most of the day…but 2-3 times a day she gets all excited and jumps around and spins in circles. It is the cutest thing you’ve ever seen!    Edith does have a heart murmur so has to have a pill twice a day but if you put with her food, she’ll just eat it right up. She also has a dry eye condition that clouds her vision a bit and requires once a day eye wipe and drops. However she gets around so well and doesn’t let it stop her. Her foster mom had her yard completely dug up for a few months and she navigated it perfectly.     Edith is currently  living with several dogs (big and small) and cats and does well with all. She would do best in a house without super rambunctious dogs but seems to like the company of another dog and definitely loves humans. She’s a one of a kind!   Interested in adopting our adorable little Ewok? Email adrienne@rescuemega.org or fill out an adoption application on our website- www.rmgdogs.org ##2622243##
