Story
Hi, I’m Ivy I’m a 5-month-old Shih Tzu with a pink bow, a playful spirit, and so much love to give. I love toys. I love other dogs. Playtime is my happy place, and cuddles? Even better. I’m sweet, and always ready to be your little sidekick. I may be small, but my personality is mighty. I also want to share my story… I was going to be euthanized by my breeder — simply because I wasn’t “perfect.” Thankfully, a rescue stepped in and saved my life. Here’s my truth: I’m incontinent and I don’t have control of my back legs. I wear a diaper (and I’m very good about it!), need help with changes, and can’t do stairs. But none of that stops me from living a full, joyful life. I scoot wherever I want to go and don’t let anything dim my sparkle. I’m looking for a foster home or a forever family who sees my heart before my challenges. I’ll need a little extra care — and I’ll give you a lifetime of love in return.

Story
Hey everybody my name is Doc. I am a 3-year-old shih Tzu mix, and as you can see I am quite the dapper young man. I was just groomed so I am extremely handsome right now and I'm looking for my forever family. My forever family should be kind of low-key with only older children. I'm good with other dogs I don't bother the cats and I love lots of attention and pets from my human. I am a sweet little boy with a silly disposition. I do have one more request for my new family I do want lots of toys from you and in return I will give you lots of kisses. To be considered, the first step is to apply here: https://www.pawsup4rescue.org/dog-cat-applicaiton If you have previously applied and received a message that your app is pending, please DM us with the name of the animal you are interested in. We are located in Joliet, Illinois. Information on fees can be found here: https://www.pawsup4rescue.org/adopting #pu4r #PawsUp4Rescue #fosterdog #rescuedog #adoptdontshop #sharingiscaring Don't forget to share!🐶 Our adoption process is usually quick but may take up to two weeks. When you find an animal you are interested in, we ask that you fill out an application on our website, PawsUp4Rescue.org/adopting as a first step so we can determine if your family is a good fit for the animal. If you are, then we will contact you to arrange a time for you and your family to meet the animal so you can decide if it is a good fit. If you currently have dogs, we require them to be present at the meeting to ensure it's a good fit all around. Once compatibility is determined, we move on to the paperwork and finalize the adoption. If the meet is not a good fit, we will keep your application on file for 6 months and will gladly consider your family for another dog.

Hello Everyone, My name is McLaren and I’m a 1 year old Shih Tzu baby boy who is as precious and sweet as can be. I am looking for my happily ever after. Investing your time and love into me will be so worth it!! I am an absolute sweetheart. I have a ton of personality. I was rescued when my family had to relocate and couldn’t take me with. I am now in a foster home awaiting my forever family. I am a sweet, loving and smart lil baby who just wants a loving family. I am happy, playful and an absolute joy to be around. I love playing and I am right at the perfect age for lots of training. 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, monthly heartworm, flea and tick prevented, a free vet visit and medical insurance). What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, McLaren

Hi, I am Pupcake I am a younger gal who was found as a stray. I can be little nervous, but with the right home & some TLC I am hoping to build some confidence. I am a dog who will need routine maintenance, whether it be brushing or going to a groomers. So, although I am cute right now, I will need your help maintaining this cute look! **We cannot guarantee any dog is hypoallergenic.

Story
Dusty is an adorable 3-year-old special needs Shih Tzu. He was abandoned in our lobby by his owner because she could no longer care for him. He was so confused as to what was going on, but he slowly began to trust. Dusty was so heavily matted we could barely see him, but when the veterinarians shaved his fur, they noticed his left eye had glaucoma. His eye was removed and he is recovering in his foster home. Missing one eye has not slowed him down. He is very inquisitive of everything around him. He is in a foster home with 4 other furry brothers and sisters.
