Story

Adopt Chucky! Chucky is a typical Shih Tzu in the very best ways: he’s adorable, energetic, opinionated, affectionate, and absolutely convinced that life should happen on his terms. His estimated birthday is 8.18.2019. This little guy is potty trained, walks well on a leash, and loves being around his people and his foster siblings. He’s always ready for whatever you have planned. Want to go for a walk? He’s in. Want to run and play? Absolutely. Want to curl up and chill? He can do that too. Chucky just wants to be with you! He has done well with other dogs and really likes cats. When he sees a cat, he’ll sniff, watch, and try to engage them in play. He has also met kids 10 and older and seems to enjoy their attention and wants to play with them. When it comes to new people, Chucky can be a little unpredictable. Sometimes he warms up immediately, while other times he prefers to take a little time to decide how he feels. He has been slightly more hesitant around adult men, although that hasn't been a major issue. Chucky does have a few quirks that his adopter will need to understand. He is protective of his food and needs to eat separately from people and other pets. If someone approaches while he is eating, he may growl to let them know he wants to be left alone. He should be given space and allowed to enjoy his meals in peace. He can also be a little mouthy. Chucky has nipped a couple of times, including when startled, and on a couple of occasions the nip has barely broken the skin or hasn't broken it at all. He has a strong personality and likes things done his way, so his adopter will need to be patient, respectful of his boundaries, and willing to continue working with him. He can be handled for the most part, although he does not like being touched in a particular spot under his right arm. And if you're wondering how to win this little security guard over, Bocce biscuits might be a good place to start. Chucky is always watching his people and everything happening around him. He's basically your tiny personal security detail. Chucky is looking for an adopter who will appreciate his big personality, respect his boundaries, and give him the guidance he needs to be his best little self. Ready for an energetic, affectionate, slightly opinionated Shih Tzu who just wants to be part of everything? Adopt Chucky! Apply here: sayvanimals.org/adopt (PLEASE NOTE: Despite what PetFinder, AdoptAPet and other aggregation software systems state - the first step is to submit an application via the link above, NOT send a message through their platforms. Please also note that we are a foster based organization, so our animals could be located anywhere in the Chicagoland area. Thank you!)

Story

Sweet as can be and every bit as kind-hearted as her namesake, Rose is a member of our Golden Girls litter and ready to find her forever family! Born around August 1, 2026, Rose currently weighs 9 lbs. Her mom is a 15 lb Shih Tzu, but Rose is a mixed breed and is expected to grow to a medium size, so plan for a little more dog than a typical Shih Tzu. Rose gets along well with cats, other dogs, and respectful children, making her a wonderful fit for a busy, loving household. She's a gentle soul who would love a family ready to give her plenty of patience, cuddles, and positive-reinforcement training as she grows. If you're looking for a loyal friend with a big heart, Rose might be the one for you! The adoption fee of $550 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm, and any other necessary medical treatment to ensure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe the breed, since our pups all come from shelters, we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *Please note that we are a foster home-based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 23, 2026, 12:54 pm
