Story

The rescue will pay for his heartworm treatment and neutering. Ben’s story is heartbreaking, but his resilience is inspiring. This 10-year-old Shih Tzu was found as a stray, completely blind, severely underweight, and heartworm positive. Despite everything he has endured, Ben is gentle, loving, and so grateful for every bit of kindness he receives. Ben has begun the first phase of his heartworm treatment and will need a local adopter or foster who can take him to his veterinary appointments in Fuquay-Varina, NC. When cleared, he will also need to be neutered and receive a dental. He is currently working on his potty manners, which should continue to improve after he is neutered and settled into a routine. Ben is the sweetest boy—calm, affectionate, and eager for a safe home where he can finally rest. After years of neglect, he deserves comfort, patience, and love. If you can provide a soft place for Ben to heal and thrive, please submit an application today.

Meet Widget — a 5-year-old, 13 lb Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix with the sweetest underbite and a heart full of love! Quick Facts: Name: Widget Breed: Shih Tzu/Yorkie Mix Age: 5 years old Weight: 13 lbs. House-Trained: Almost there! Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: Yes Good with Kids: Not tested – but would prefer a calm adult household Energy Level: Medium Fence Required: No About Widget’s Breed: Our best guess is that Widget is Shih Tzu and Yorkie mix. The Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix, often called a Shorkie, is a small but spirited companion that blends the affectionate, gentle nature of the Shih Tzu with the bold, lively personality of the Yorkshire Terrier. These dogs are typically loyal, playful, and thrive on being close to their people. Shorkies can be a bit stubborn, but their intelligence and eagerness to please make them trainable with patience and consistency. With their compact size, loving temperament, and adaptable energy levels, they make wonderful pets for families, singles, or seniors looking for a devoted lap dog with a touch of spunk. Widget is a gentle, easygoing little guy who has almost mastered potty training and is already crate trained. He can even be trusted outside of his crate since he’s not destructive. Widget is a bit of a ladies’ man, preferring the company of female energy, though he’s friendly with everyone once he warms up! He hasn’t lived with kids yet, but would likely do well with older, respectful children. Widget’s Wonderful Traits: • Crate trained and nearly potty trained (likely pad-trained in the past) • Non-destructive, can be left alone without worry • Cat-friendly, currently lives peacefully with three feline roommates • Loves leashed walks, and proudly displays his adorable underbite for all to see! • Gentle & timid, takes time to warm up to men but bonds deeply once he does • Great appetite, working on gaining a little weight • Ideal home: with women or female energy, couples, or families who are home often and want a loyal lap companion Widget is a sweet, loving pup who thrives on companionship and will happily follow his people around the house or curl up for cuddles. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate little man who will adore you endlessly, Widget is ready to be your devoted best friend! Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description. to ensure a smooth process, please submit a completed application through our website at: http://crisisdogsnc.org/dog-adoption/. Please note that questions via email or social media channels may not receive a response without a completed application. As part of our commitment to responsible adoption practices, we require excellent veterinarian references and conduct virtual home visits. Additionally, your prior or current dog must be on year-round heartworm prevention. We assist with coordinating transportation by both land and air whenever feasible.

Story

💔 Looking for a Loving Home for Bear 💔 This is very hard to share, but I need to rehome my beloved Shih Tzu, Bear. Due to my schedule and family obligations, I can’t give him the time and attention he deserves. Bear is a 5-year-old black and white, purebred Shih Tzu (no papers), neutered and fully house trained. We brought him home at 6 weeks old. My son is allergic to dogs so we needed a hypoallergenic breed. He’s been deeply loved his whole life. Bear is a total lap dog who loves to be held, is very sweet, and enjoys playing fetch. He’s protective of his mama but gentle and loyal. He will come with his toys, food and water bowls, two beds, and an end-table style kennel to make his transition easier. I’m looking for a patient, loving home that will treat him like family. If you’re interested in meeting Bear or want more info, please message me. 🐾
