Story
These sweet Shih Tzu puppies are looking for loving forever homes after a difficult start. When their breeder was injured and unable to care for them, the puppies arrived needing veterinary attention, deworming, and grooming. Thankfully, they now have a fresh start and are ready to find families of their own! The puppies are happy, energetic, and a little shy as they adjust to handling and new experiences. With patience, gentle socialization, and consistent training, they can grow into confident, affectionate companions. Shih Tzus are small companion dogs known for their friendly personalities and low-shedding coats. They typically weigh around 9-16 pounds, and their coats require regular brushing and professional grooming. These puppies are expected to remain small, at approximately 9 pounds when fully grown. Adoption fee: $800, including up-to-date vaccines, microchip, and spay/neuter Apply to adopt: thecharlieprojectdogrescue.com The Charlie Project Dog Rescue | DATCP #506053 Please visit our website www.thecharlieprojectdogrescue.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.

Story
These adorable Shorkie (Shih-Tzu and Yorkie mix) puppies combine two small companion breeds known for their affectionate personalities and big-dog confidence in tiny packages! They're expected to stay small, typically around 5-15 pounds when fully grown, though their adult size may vary. Shorkies often have low-shedding coats that require regular brushing and professional grooming to prevent matting. They tend to have moderate energy levels, enjoying playtime and short walks just as much as snuggling with their favorite people. They can also be vocal and strong-willed, so early socialization and consistent, positive-reinforcement training are important. As young puppies, they'll need loving, patient families ready to guide them through potty training, socialization, and all the adventures of growing up. Adoption fee: $800, including up-to-date vaccines, microchip, and spay/neuter Apply to adopt: thecharlieprojectdogrescue.com The Charlie Project Dog Rescue | DATCP #506053 Please visit our website www.thecharlieprojectdogrescue.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.
