Tequila is so cute! He is a very happy guy and likes everyone he meets. He does well with other dogs and will be a wonderful addition to any family. He is a purebred Shih-Tzu that was released to our rescue from a breeder. He is doing well with his potty training, but will need some time to adjust life in a home. He loves attention and is very snuggly!

Story
Tobey has now been living with his foster family for over three months. Although he had a rough beginning, he has now settled in and has become the most loving member of the family. When he arrived, he was nervous around his foster dad. Over time, his foster dad worked to earn Tobey's trust and it paid off! Strict boundaries were set, and Tobey's foster dad took over feedings and spent more time with him. This allowed him to establish himself as the pack leader and for Tobey to learn his role within the family unit.Tobey understands the house rules and knows where he stands in the pack, and these clear boundaries helped his confidence so much within the house. Now he is all cuddles and kisses, and he is the first one to greet his foster family when they arrive. He is always on the lookout for a lap to lay on and gives the best hugs! He plays well with toys and the other dogs in the house.Tobey can be a little protective when new people come to the house, and his foster mom uses training tools to ensure that the guests feel welcome and to ensure that Tobey doesn't feel like he needs to protect them. Tobey is a GREAT dog - so cuddly and sweet... and he also needs an experienced owner who will continue the training established and keep boundaries in place for Tobey to be the goodest boy that he is in his foster home.He would do best in a quiet home without young children. If you're looking for a sweet, cuddly dog who will blossom in a structured environment, Tobey Maguire could be the perfect fit for you!

Story
Meet Zero – A Gentle Soul Ready for a Fresh Start 🐾 Zero is a 4-year-old Shih Tzu who came to us from Chicago Animal Care and Control. This sweet little guy has had a rough start, but he’s full of quiet hope and ready for a new chapter with a family who will love him just as he is. Zero is in need of a little TLC—both physically and emotionally. He’ll need regular grooming to keep his beautiful coat healthy, and most importantly, a patient and understanding home where he can take his time to settle in and feel safe. Once he feels secure, Zero’s loving personality will begin to shine. He’s the kind of dog who just wants to feel safe, comfortable, and loved—and he’s so deserving of all three. Zero knows the right family is out there, ready to scoop him up and show him the care and kindness he’s been waiting for. Could that be you?

Story
Miss Grace (grace) was found as a stray locally. She`s a young adult and weighs 11 lbs. Breed???She has Shih-tzu hair so she will need a regular grooming. She`s really soft. Grace has never met a stranger. She loves everyone human or dogs. She`s all about play and has a lot of energy. She loves toys and will play with any dog. Unfortunately she is unaware some dogs may not like her. She always wants her foster brothers to play and may be a little pesty. She would love a human kid to run around with but would probably be a trip hazard for someone not so steady on their feet. We are working on not walking between my feet or waiting to go down the stairs. She may have tripped me a time or two. She so quiet sometimes you don`t realize she`s there.Grace doesn`t mind being touched on her feet or face or even her tail. Now if you put your face close to her you are going to get licked... Grace is housebroken and walks ok on a leash. She just needs a little work on not pulling. She sleeps in bed with her human sister but is crated when no one is home. She`s still very puppy. I haven`t heard her bark yet. She doesn`t bark when my own dogs go crazy because someone has the nerve to walk by the yard. She just gets excited hoping they will come pet her.This is a Pay It Forward dog. This means the adoption donation of $650 will help to save another pup needing rescue and vetting. If you are interested in this dog, please complete an adoption application.Email: dogs@almosthomefoundation.orgAlmost Home Foundation`s adoption requirements:(1) Be at least 21 years of age;(2) Have the consent of all adults living in the household;(3) Have approval from the residence owner;(4) Have valid ID with current address;(5) Be approved by Almost Home Foundation as a suitable adoptive home; and`(6) Live in the suburbs surrounding Schaumburg (Illinois Residents only)*** Please note that Almost Home Foundation accepts only cash, Zelle, or checks for adoption fees; we do not accept debit or credit cards. ***
