Story
Meet Ten Penny! Ten Penny is an 8 year old shitzu mix who was pulled as part of “Angel Retreat’s ACCT’s of love” program due to being at risk of euthanasia in an overcrowded and underfunded urban shelter. Ten Penny originally came in as a stray so we don’t know much of his back story. We do know he quickly learned he was safe and showed everyone just how sweet he is! He loves to sit in people’s lap, and will stay there all day if you let him. He would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a low key lap dog! As with all rescue dogs, they will need a family who is understanding and prepared to work through a period of transition with them as they learn to live in a house and around people. They will need time to trust their new family before working on training, such as house training. We require all our animals to be trained using positive reinforcement methods ONLY. If you are interested in being considered for them please apply on our website at www.angelsretreat.org 💕🐾

Dandy is an 8 year old spayed female shih tzu who weighs 16 pounds. These girls are obese, needed to be fully shaved and are so much happier now.

Story
**BAILEY`S ADOPTION FEE IS FULLY SPONSORED**Hello, my name is: BaileyDOB: 10/12/2013Sex/Breed: Spayed female Shih TzuWeight: 8.1 lbsRescued From: Owner surrenderBailey is the old lady that lives down the street and thinks she can do whatever she wants because she has lived longer than you. She wakes up every morning, and says she’ll rise, but no promises on the shine. She’s always dressed to the nines, accessorized, and wearing bright pink lipstick. The kids on the street think she’s mean because she yells at them for riding their bikes in front of her house. Do something she doesn’t like and she might just stare you down with a look like she just sucked on a lemon. We were told she’s a Shih Tzu, but her DNA test might come back as 99% sass and 1% Shih Tzu.Bailey came to All 4 Paws when her owner passed away and she lost the only home she’d ever known. At this point in her life, she’s looking for a safe place to live out her days, and isn’t very interested in making new friends. She likes to go for walks and does well on leash, and is mostly house trained when kept to a routine. She sleeps soundly through the night, most happy in a bed or on the couch. She can coexist with others (two- and four-legged) who give her space. While we wouldn’t call what she does snuggling, she does occasionally use her humans as a warm place to curl up.She is looking for an adopter who is willing to love her for her, and won’t expect much in return. We know she will be grateful for the care that will be provided to her in her golden years; she just isn’t likely to show it. All this old broad needs is a soft place to land and live out her life.All our pets are microchipped, spayed/neutered, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives.Interested in adopting?

Story
Ari is being fostered in PA. Little Ari is guessed to be about 12 years old and appears to be a shih tzu mix. She is a quiet, gentle, passive, loveable girl who loves her meals and can sleep like no other! She gets along well with other dogs, cats, and people of all ages. She simply ignores other dogs and cats in her foster home and needs to be in a home with gentle pets and children because it does not appear like she will defend or stick up for herself. She is just as happy to snuggle up on the sofa as she is to find her bed for the day on the floor. She seems to enjoy sniffing all she can when she’s outside but may not make the best walk buddy, as she’d rather meander and smell things. She rides well in the car and tolerates her foster mom’s kisses very well. Ari is completely blind since she has no eyes and her hearing is poor. Her foster mom keeps a potty pad close to her bed so when she gets up from her nap, she has it to potty on when her mom is working. She will not indicate a need to go out to potty. She will need to be carried outside but does fine exploring once she’s out. She cannot go up or down stairs by herself. She will have a dental and a lumpectomy of a non-cancerous mass on her cheek on May 9th and will be ready to find her forever home shortly after. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.
