Story
Introducing Tatum, a Shih Tzu, born appx July 2018.  Tatum is a sweet and loving boy who gets along with everyone!  He likes to play catch with a tennis ball and he LOVES food.  Tatum is looking for a loving home with his bestie, Tucker.  He is also a Shih Tzu, born 2017. They are both housebroken, crate trained and leash trained.  Tatum and Tucker get along with other dogs and cats.  They are friendly with new people they meet and kids of all ages.  Tatum will be ready for a nap on your lap after playing or exploring the back yard. The perfect home for this senior pair is with someone that will welcome into their home and give them lots of LOVE! The suggested adoption donation for both Tatum & Tucker is $550, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training).  Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $399,000 covered mainly through adoption fees. Please Note:  A Courtesy Post designates that an animal is still in the home of its owner and not in a Muddy Paws foster. This means that our exposure to the animal is limited since we are only assisting the owner in finding a new home for their pet. From time to time, owners find a new furever home for their pets outside of Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue and there is a delay in removing them from our site. We apologize if the Courtesy Post you apply to adopt is unavailable for adoption. Information about the adoption process:  All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. Please Note:  We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.

Story
Rowdy (neutered male)12 years (dob Oct. 8th) - Shitzu/Poodle (14lbs)Surrendered because owners moved into nursing home Described as affectionate - playful Lived inside - Moderate energy Cons: Barks excessively - Chews - Separation anxiety Does have bite history when grabbing him Pros: Housebroken - Walks on leash - Gentle - Smart - Playful - Rides in car Knows no - come here Enjoys squeekies Fair w/ women, men, other dogs and cats No children due to nipping Adoption Fee: $0 (sponsored adoption)From staff:His mom and dad had to go into a nursing home. They`re very worried about him and with his age we don`t think he`ll do well at all. Definitely no kids as he is very nippy with being held or fast movements. He will need a calm home that`s willing to just let him live out the rest of his old man life. He has had dental cleanings, grooming to shave him so his skin doesn`t get irritated and shots for being old. Vet is sending over records so we can be more specific when meeting with potential adopters.
