Story
Rocco is an approx 10 year old Shih Tzu boy looking for his furever family!   This handsome boy Rocco is a quiet, gentle soul who loves nothing more than a soft bed and a peaceful nap - he will happily snooze the day away. He is incredibly well-mannered, making him the perfect calm company. He loves long walks and car rides too. He prefers all four paws on the ground when interacting.  He can be a bit sensitive when being picked up, so he needs a patient owner who goes at his pace.  He is dog friendly and living with other dogs in his foster home, but would do best in a home without small children.  He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and had a dental. If you're looking for a quiet, sweet, low-key buddy who will be your loyal shadow, he is your guy.He doesn't ask for much - just a warm bed, a quiet home, and someone to love him. https://peytonsplaceanimalrescue.org/adoption-application/ ##2818953##

Story
Buzz is a 3-year-old Shih Tzu who came to us as a local stray, very matted and in need of some TLC. Now sporting a fresh new haircut, he’s feeling much better and ready for a fresh start!Buzz is a low-key, quiet little guy who enjoys his leisurely walks and a calmer pace of life. He’d be happiest in a lower-traffic home without young children, where he can relax and settle into a comfortable routine.He may also enjoy having another friendly dog around his size to hang out with and keep him company.If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing little companion, Buzz might be just your guy!

Story
Diamond’s a 3yo 13lb Shih Tzu. He’s dog and kid friendly. He’s house, pee pad and crate trained. He loves running around his fosters secure fenced in yard with another dog and likes going for a harness leashed walk at least once a day. He loves playing with toys with another dog, being with his people to get tons of belly rubs and give kisses. He’s smart, gentle, playful, and enjoys car rides. He can be a barker, chew on things so will need chew toys over other dog items to keep him busy. He also can be a digger so needs to be watched when in the yard. He could use some work on training some of these things, which being food and treat motivated could help with this. Diamond’s foster requires a home, where someone is home often, so not to be left for long periods of time, a secure fenced in yard, another playful dog a harnessed leashed walk at least once a day, plenty of chew toys along with giving leadership, consistency, structure and to continue working on training. If your home DOES NOT meet these requirement’s please DO NOT put an application in. We will not call anyone whose home does not meet the needed requirements. Also, we will be concentrating on local to foster applications 1st since home checks and meets with all humans and animals in home is needed at meet. Our fosters are all volunteers so aren’t always able to travel too far. Diamond as all dogs should have at least 2 weeks in their new home with just their people who live in the home and to not have people over for at least 2 weeks. Dogs need time to settle in and adjust to their new people and environment first so they can learn to trust them first. Diamond’s neutered, vaccinated, HW negative and microchipped. Currently in West Deptford, NJ. If your home meets the needed requirements and you’re interested in applying to adopt please do so at www.tprescue.org

Story
Lotus was adopted from ACCT Philly/Petsmart in KOP in 2018 at 6 months old. Her birthday is 1/11/2018. She's a good dog. Acts like any Shih Tzu. She'll stare at you the whole day! Only needs to go potty once a day. She wants your hand on her at all times. A good guard dog. Barks when someone is at the door. Loves to run and is a good hopper. Or at least she used to be. I haven't been able to play with her or have her run free for a couple of years due to My cancer surgery and recovery. I have no energy from it now to give her all the love and playtime she should be getting. For this reason, i want to find her a great home that is bursting with love. The new parent (s)/family should be able to play with her and keep her with them at all times when home. When you leave the house, saying "guard the house, Lotus" will give her relief that she isn't being abandoned. It's more that she has a duty set on her. @the park, she loves to mingle & loves hearing how beautiful she is.

Story
Charlie is a loving senior dog who is over 9 years old. I adopted him in 2018 at Brandywine Valley SPCA, and he already had some behavioral challenges when I first got him. At the time, I was healthy and able to manage his needs, but after being diagnosed with lupus in 2020, caring for him became increasingly difficult. Charlie is energetic, quirky, affectionate, and full of personality. He does have behavioral and medical needs that require patience, consistency, and someone who is comfortable caring for a senior dog who needs extra attention. I am looking for a loving, patient home that can provide Charlie with the time, care, structure, and veterinary attention he needs. My biggest hope is to find someone who will understand his challenges, be patient with him, and give him a safe and comfortable home for the rest of his life. This is a very difficult decision because I love Charlie, but I believe a home better equipped to meet his needs would be best for him.
