Story
Meet Eclair She is a Shih Tzu/Terrier/Spaniel mix pup who was born on 5/2/25. She is expected to be around 20-25 pounds when she is full-grown, but we can not guarantee that. Eclair was rescued from a humane case where there were over 50 dogs in the house. Most of the adult dogs were around 25 pounds. She is crate-trained, almost fully house-trained, and ready for a home of her own. Some of the dogs from the home require regular grooming, and some do not. There is a chance Eclair might need to visit a groomer every few months, as we don't know exactly who her parents are. Please place an application to be considered to adopt https://www.safeharboranimalrescue.org/application

Story
This 10-year-old, 10-pound Shipoo may have limited vision and hearing, but he makes up for it with endless love and sweetness. He’s a gentle soul who just wants to be near his person and feel safe. Because he can’t see or hear well, walks on a leash aren’t really his thing — he prefers to just stand close or explore at his own pace. He would do best with someone who is home most of the time. Leo becomes anxious if he can’t find you and may bark until you return, so he wouldn’t do well in an apartment or with long periods alone. He recently had a dental cleaning and full bloodwork, which looked great, and he’s all ready for his forever home. If you’re looking for a devoted little companion to share your days with, Leo will repay you with unconditional love and loyalty. All he needs is a safe space, a kind heart, and someone to remind him he’s finally home Adoption is $150 which includes his dental, neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention.

To meet one of our animals we require an approved application. You can fill one out at https://tobyscrittercoverescue.org/adoptionapp/ November 6, 2025, 5:22 pm

Story
Daisy is a super sweet Shih Tzu (mix?) She's approximately 7 to 8 years old. Before I adopted her, she was found by a Good Samaritan in very bad shape. She was cold and matted, and had to have her eyes removed. I have had her for five years and she is a joy. She hates grooming and going to the vet, so she does have to take Gabaptenin before either of those appointments. She's crate trained and potty trained. She does sleep in my bed. She will not have accidents if taken outside to the grass. Her hearing isn't as good as it used to be. She does have a "Halo" she can wear to avoid bonking her head. She loves to play with toys. She weighs a whopping 13 pounds.
