Story
Meet Fluff — Big Personality, Small Package Fluff is a Shih Tzu mix who is very clearly a big dog trapped in a little dog’s body — and he knows it. Found as a stray roaming the streets, we’re pretty sure that little adventure went straight to his head. We tried giving him a softer name to chill him out… It didn’t work. Fluff is still very much Mr. Personality. Fluff is best described as a Sour Patch Kid — sweet, a little spicy, and full of character. He’s a good boy at heart, but like many small dogs with big confidence, he can be possessive over his belongings at times. Because of that, an adult-only home is a must for him. The good news? Fluff has been working closely with our trainer and has made great progress learning better coping skills and boundaries. He’s done the work, he’s grown, and we truly believe he’s ready for his forever home. What to know about Fluff: • Shih Tzu mix • Big personality in a little body • Sweet, confident, and entertaining • Has shown possessiveness in the past but has made strong improvements • Adult-only home required • Training support already in place Fluff is looking for a home that appreciates his bold personality, continues his structure, and understands that sometimes the best dogs come with a little extra spice. If you’re looking for a small dog with confidence, character, and a whole lot of charm — Fluff just might be your guy. Apply to adopt Fluff today: www.roversdoover.com/adopt Life’s never boring with a dog like Fluff — and honestly, that’s part of the magic. ##2547287##
