Story

Meet Chewy! 🐾Chewy is a five-year-old Shih Tzu who has been part of my life for about four years. I purchased him from a breeder in Pennsylvania, and I am now looking for a new home for him where he can be safe, loved, and have all of his social, medical, and physical needs consistently met.Chewy is a calm, playful, curious, and food-loving dog. He is adventurous and absolutely enjoys going on walks, especially in parks and other places where he can explore. He also likes to take the lead on walks and investigate his surroundings at his own pace.He is a sweet boy with a personality of his own, and I want to make sure his next home is one where he will receive the attention, care, exercise, companionship, and veterinary care he deserves.

Story

Samuel is an approximate 2yr old, 25lb, neutered male Shih Tzu mix found as a stray & never claimed , so his history is mostly unknown. Other than working on some slight separation anxiety in his crate he is the perfect gentleman and companion. For still being what we consider a puppy, he has a very laid back personality. He walks great on leash, he's not destructive, he travels well, he doesn't soil in the house & he shows proper play with other dogs his size. He has not been around larger dogs at this time. Cats & kids are unknown, but his foster mom has seen no red flags. He likes to play with toys & balls, & chew on bones. Shows no resource guarding, with humans or other dogs. He very much attaches to "his person" and wants to be wherever they are, but is not suffocating. Did I mention HE WALKS GREAT ON LEASH? AND likes to talk to you? Samuel is neutered, microchipped and up to date on his vaccines and preventatives with an adoption fee of $425.
