Story

Summer is a like shih tzu on a budget! Look at her cute squishy face and none of that needing to be groomed for 60 bucks a month hair! She has the total wiggle butt personality of a shih tzu too. She is so sweet. She's abpit one year old and fully vetted now. She had cherry eye surgery abt two weeks ago. 14 lbs grown, kennels like a dream every night. Working on potty skills. Walks on a leash like a dream and... even not on leash does not run off. She recalls so well and loves kids, even small ones because she's very gentle, loves dogs, cats, and is just the happiest little thing ever. Zero aggression with food , toys , even high value treats. Takes cues from other dogs very well and is just a joy. She is like a warm summer breeze! Just all the best stuff. Summer is available for adoption for 200.00 fully vetted, fixed, chipped, all vaccinations and boosters for DHlpp, rabies, bordetella, wormed twice. Heartworm negative and on all prevents.

Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area, $50 temporary fuel fee will be included)

Story

They call me Romeo... Get comfy, I've got alot to say. First, let's be clear. I'm a big dog in small legs. I'm no joke and I'm no pillow sitter. I think they got some call signs mixed up. I identify as Tank. Next. I have concerns about these scrubs coming at me with these knives. Nope not today folks. I've been taking care of myself for a bunch of time now (2 years) and I don't need no knives coming at me. We will get back to that later. Where was I....oh yeah. I had people before I was politely dropped here in this dogtel motel but they were UNTRAINABLE. You heard me. I couldn't do a thing with them no matter how much I tried to tell them dangers were everywhere. Would they listen? Nope!!They are on their own. A 20 pound big dog can only do so much. Then you just have to let them go. So I'm on the market. Yupper pupper! I'm a single guy looking for love. But I don't want to be suffocated. I like things slow and on my terms. I have teeth and like to show them when y'all come in hot like I'm a toy. Back Off, I'm a scientist. I like nature and walks and doing stuff. I'm like neighborhood watch. Nothing gets past me. 🐶Am I a nice guy?You bet! I try anyway, when people follow my rules of GO SLOW! ❌And please - no small people. There is a fluffy kid right down the isle that just loves those kids. I'm ready for mature relations please. So to recap. ✔️Ready for love. ✔️Older people only.✔️Get me out for exorcise and potty. ✔️Housetrained.✔️Crate trained✔️I'm trained for to sit and stay. That's as far as I go. ✔️Looking for patient, experienced trainable people that will help me be my best self.✔️I talk. I plan to talk. If you don't want to hear what I have to say try feeding me chicken.🐶 depends on who they are. We will have to see about how I feel about dogs. 😼 cats... maybe if I have to.❌ no kids ❌ vets approach with caution. ❌ strangers approach slowly until trust is formed. ✅Adorable obviously!!! I travel light, pretty sturdy. Great sense of humor. 🏁 best friend with spunk!! Please form a line here ⬇️ for interviews. Bribes accepted Chicken flavor please!!! Primary Color: Black Weight: 19.5 Age: 2yrs 0mths 1wks

Story

Gucci came to FARM in need of a forever home. He is an 8 month old, 14 pound, neutered male Shih Tzu mix. Gucci is all puppy - playful and affectionate. He does well with other small young dogs and older children. Gucci would love a new home with an affectionate owner who has time to give him the affectionate he craves and the basic training he needs. Gucci needs to learn how to walk on a leash and needs housebreaking skills. A secure fenced yard would be a plus. Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out a dog application which can be found at http://fallstonanimalrescue.org/adopt/ and e-mail it to fallstonrescue@aol.com.
