Story
Hi I'm Zara! My name means Princess and that's EXACTLY what I am. Take it or leave it. I'm a typical sassy shih-tzu. I may look cute, cuddly and fluffy... but I take some time to bond and become friendly. Once I trust you and feel safe... you will meet a whole different dog that loves to give kisses and hates to leave your side!Strangers and new people coming into my space really frighten me, and I may act protective... it helps me feel safe if I have a room or crate to retreat to. I can get a little cranky at times - so a quiet, calm home would be ideal for me to thrive in. ABSOLUTELY NO CHILDREN. ADULT HOME ONLY.*Grooming may be a challenge that must be considered if you are interested in me, its suspected that I have had negative grooming experiences in the past and now I am quite fearful of the entire ordeal. I do not like my face groomed/touched. I will take time, and patience to have a successful, stress-free spa day.I'm looking for a home/owner that will truly understand my boundaries, and work with me to overcome fears. I have quite a mystery of a history... so please be patient with me. I'll be here waiting! Stop by any day between 1pm and 4pm.

Story
Ja'dore is simply, positively ja'dorable!! She's about 9 years old and she's had a tough time of it over the last few years. She was adopted from our Newark facility and Ja'dore became afflicted with allergies. As many know that have had allergic pets, it's no easy feat to treat! Despite her adopter's efforts, they could no longer care for her. Ja'dore is now on Cytopoint injections and she's also on some meds to treat her skin and ears, and she's starting to feel better already! She will need allergy injections going forward, or a similar allergy medication. None of this gets the little princess down though, and she is such a sweetheart that is perfectly behaved, perfect on a leash, perfectly trained, housebroken, still playful and silly, and she's even good with mild-mannered dogs and cats too. She needs to continue getting well in a great, loving home and she hopes you'll give her a chance! Email: office@ahsppz.org for an application. File#54649 4/16/24

Story
This adorable grandpa of a shihtzu is in need of a helping paw. Slim Jim was found as a stray in such sad shape. He's around 12 years old and he's visually-impaired and has some other age-related health issues. Nothing too serious, but his skin, eyes, and ears have been neglected throughout his life, so it's made him a bit on the grumpier side. BUT, there's a home for everyone and we know that there's a special person out there that's used to grumpy old men! Slim Jim can be very sweet and easy-going, he just has to get to know you. He doesn't like to be startled so a home with no kids is needed. He'll be ok with another dog that doesn't get in his face or push him around. Slim Jim just wants to relax and take his time to get to know his new home and people, and never have to suffer again. He's well-mannered, good on a leash, and he really doesn't ask for much. He's available for foster or adoption and he hopes you'll give him a chance! Call 609-693-1900 or email: office@ahsppz.org for an application. File#70795 2/22/24

Story
Matawan, NJ. Just look at this precious little Shih Tzu girl.'s sweet face She had an extremely traumatic experience that left one of her eyes hanging out of the socket by the muscle. It was horrendous, but the good news is........ After emergency surgery at an after-hours emergency vet clinic, she has recovered amazingly well and is now ready for adoption in NJ. She was so strong and such a little trooper through it all.. She is the absolute sweetest little angel, happy, extremely well behaved and house trained. You could not get a more wonderful addition to your family if you are wanting to adopt. She will need to be placed in an adult only home with possibly one small, docile dog. We do not want anything to happen to her remaining eye so we must be extra cautious in her placement/home environment. If you are interested in applying to adopt this ANGEL, please read the additional information below. All potential adopters must fill out applications and be approved before meeting the pet they are interested in adopting. To adopt one of the precious lives that we have saved, this rescue requires an approved application, a suitable home environment, a signed adoption contract, and an adoption fee. If approved to adopt, we expect applicants to pick up their new pets in person at the pet's foster location. Thank you for understanding that these dogs' welfare and quality of life, for the rest of their life, is our top priority and why we must be extremely diligent in their placement.
