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##

Story
My name is Beau, and I'm a 4-year-old (turning 5 this October) bundle of love, energy, and wags who's looking for my next chapter! I'm fully housebroken, go out a few times a day, and crate like a champ at night – one command, a tiny treat, and a goodnight kiss, and I'm settled till morning. I enjoy the company of other dogs I am currently living with and do great with all people--including children! I adore walks (sniffing EVERY pole is my job!), short bursts of zoomies, then cozy rests. I've passed all three obedience classes – beginner, intermediate, and advanced – so I sit, beg, stay, lie down, and heel pretty well (nobody's perfect, right? ). My first family loved me so much, and this was a hard but loving decision for my best interests. Now I'm excited (and a tiny bit nervous) to meet you and start our adventures together. If think I would be the perfect addition to your family and would like to meet me, please complete the adoption application today! ##2651191##

Story
ELEPHANT: Shih Tzu mix, neutered male, approx. 8 years old. notes: If you love Shih Tzus you will want to meet our little Eli. Despite having been neglected by his previous human caretakers, he is now ready for a loving home with responsible caretakers who will take care of him . Eli has dry eyes and will need over the counter drops in his eyes daily. He can get grumpy when people are poking and prodding him, so we recommend an experienced dog owner who would not be deterred if he displays negative behavior. He has so much to offer and just needs the right adopter to give him the opportunity to have a good home. For more information, please Call Jennifer: 518-664-3450 CDHA does not adopt to families with children under 5 years of age, people under the age of 21 nor people in transition, e.g., college students. Adopters must live within an hour drive of Albany, NY. The adoption application can be found at: https://cdha.net/pets-for-adoption/adoption-application/. Submitting an application does not commit you to adopt a dog nor does it guarantee you will be approved to adopt.
