Story
Zoey is one of the cutest little Shih Tzus we have ever seen. She is 15 years old but you would never know it. She acts like a puppy and can easily jump onto chairs, couches, and even counters. Zoey weighs just under 12lbs so she's the perfect size for a travel companion. She absolutely loves being held and craves human attention. She's been living with a dozen other small dogs and has been great. Zoey will join others when barking to greet guests and she doesn't love being left in a crate or pen. Zoey loves walks and is good in the car. Zoey is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and recently had full blood work. She's currently being treated for Lyme, but doesn't show any signs of illness. She will need a dental at some point (not urgent) and this will be covered by VPR at the adopter's vet. To apply to adopt Zoey, please fill out an application at vintagepetrescue.org/adopt

Story
We got Gizmo from a breeder that we used and knew for 10 yrs. She reached out to us because she had stage 4 cancer and needed a home for Gizmo. We got him when he was 3 months old, he just turned 2 yrs old on March 19th. He loves attention and affection and really enjoys sitting on your lap or next to you on the couch. He has a good amount of energy and really enjoys playing fetch or tug a war as well as running around with the other pups. He knows, sit and stay as I give those commands before every meal. The picture above is how he sits, I have never seen a pup do that before. It's an adorable trait!!! I am truly saddened that I will not be able to take him with me as my living situation has changed. I want him to go to a loving, caring and safe new furever home!!!
