*****AVAILABLE NOW-I am in Yorkville Il awaiting my forever family******* Hi Everyone, My name is Oscar and I would like to add some wags to your tail. I am a precious 7 month old Teddy Bear (Shih Tzu/Bichon) baby who is looking for my forever people!! True to the adorable-sounding name, Teddy Bear dogs are a hybrid or designer cross breed of a Shih Tzu and a Bichon Frise. They are also known as a Zuchon or Shichon. Teddy Bear dogs are small in stature, but they make up for it with big hearts. They are loyal, loving to a fault, and capture the hearts of anyone they lay their eyes on. These dogs captured the hearts of the world around the 2000s when the designer breed became truly popular. I am going to make an excellent addition to a loving family!! I am adorable, smart, loving and sweet as sweet can be. I have a great temperament!! Investing your time and love into me will be so worth it!! I am a breeder release due to the failing economy. I am good with children and other animals. Please add a lotta unconditional love, sloppy kisses, tail wags and endless happiness to your family and contact jbrescuerangers@yahoo.com for an adoption application and bring me home. I will come with the works (Neutered, up to date on everything, micro chipped, fecal, heart worm tested if age appropriate, monthly heartworm, flea and tick prevented, a free vet visit and medical insurance). What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, Oscar 332500901402353J

Kelsea Ballerini

Shih Tzu Schnoodle

Female, Adult
St. Charles, IL
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Kelsea Ballerini! Kelsea is a 2 year old Shih Tzu/Poodle mix who weighs about 15 pounds. This cute lady loves other dogs and tends to look to the resident dog in her foster home for guidance and reassurance. We think she would love to find a home with another small dog to keep her company since she loves to cuddle up to a dog friend! Kelsea's foster family is working on helping her feel safe and comfortable in a home environment while also introducing things like potty training and leash walking. She loves her crate and treats it like her safe space! Since she's still learning to trust human friends, Kelsea will need a patient adopter and will do best in a quieter home environment. Submit an application if Kelsea is the dog for you! We promise that she will entertain you with her sock stealing and plushy toy carrying ways! Adoption fee: $625.
