IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS PET, PLEASE COMPLETE THE APPROPRIATE APPLICATION FOUND ON OUR WEBSITE HTTP://FUREVERTAILS.COM. Unfortunately, at this time we are not currently adopting outside of the state of MI. We process applications ONLY - there is no guarantee that you will get a response to an inquiry. MEET SCAMP:  Hello there! My name is Scamp, and I am a 9-year-old Shih Tzu Yorkshire Terrier mix. I might be a small guy, weighing just 10 pounds, but I've got a big personality!   I ended up at the animal control shelter when my previous family couldn't give me the time and attention I deserved. Luckily, Furever Tails Animal Rescue came to my rescue and took me in. Sadly, it's been a bit of a journey for me to find my real forever family. I've hopped from one home to another, in search of someone who will truly love me.   I'm a social pup and get along well with other dogs and even cats. Older kids are no problem for me either. I have excellent manners and I'm already housebroken and crate trained. I absolutely love car rides and will be your favorite co-pilot!   When it comes to toys, I love playing with tennis balls, stuffed toys, and even those crunchy bottles. Despite my age, I don't act like it one bit! You'll often find me bouncing around with energy and ready for some fun. I also know fun tricks like rolling over and dancing for you! I'm very food motivated and will work for treats.    Grooming is important for my breed, so I'll need to be groomed every 6 weeks to keep my coat free from matting. But don't worry, I'll gladly tolerate it for some extra pampering. Plus, it gives us more time to bond!   One thing's for sure, I have quite the personality. I'll keep you entertained with my antics and make sure you never have a dull moment! Going on walks is one of my favorite things, and I can't wait to explore the world with you.   All I'm looking for is my perfect match, someone who will love me unconditionally. If you're ready for a loyal and loving companion, then I'm your guy. So what do you say? Will you give me the forever home I've been longing for?

Story
Cuteness overload for sure with Stubby! He is estimated to be about 2 years old and weighs 13 pounds. Stubby is very loving, and very loveable. He likes to be close to you but also has an independent streak. He is good with all humans and dogs. He is quiet on car rides, likes to go on walks, and will sometimes get the zoomies in a fenced yard. He will sleep all night in his crate after an initial complaint! Although not immediately obvious, Stubby is missing a bone at the base of his spine due to a birth defect. This does not bother him but affects his potty habits and he can have occasional accidents. Stubby would prefer a home with children who are over 8 years of age as well as respectful, due to his size. For more info about this special boy and you are at least 21 years old, please come to our kennel during business hours, make an appointment, or fill out an application at k9stray.com and an adoption counselor will be in touch. We look forward to helping you find your new best friend! *Please check your lease agreements for breed/weight restrictions prior to applying. We also do not do cat testing, so we do not know how a dog will do with cats. Not all dogs are available to go home on the same day you first meet.*
