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. 🐾

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Ben – A Brave Little Survivor Breed: Shih Tzu Age: ~10 years Location: Fuquay-Varina / Middlesex, NC Adoption Fee: $300.  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.
