Story
Introducing Charlie! He is a 10 year old, 20 lb ShihTzu mix. He was living his good life in his previous home until his person became too ill to care for him. Humane Tomorrow promised we would find a great home for him. 10 is the new 7 in ShihTzu years, so no worries about his age. You can see that he has a little snaggle tooth if you look real close. This only adds to his cuteness and charm! Charlie has a sweet temperament. He enjoys going on walks and has great leash manners. He also likes car rides. He may be a little cautious when meeting new people, but he warms up quickly. Charlie gets along with the other small dog in his foster home. He is housetrained, crate trained, and he doesn't bark much. What a great little dog! Please submit your application, and one of our adoption counselors will contact you.

Story
Farley is a very happy boy who loves his people. He is estimated to be about 6 years old, and 13 lbs. He is an easy lap size, and does like to sit on your lap, but he is also content to be hanging out in the same room with you on a doggie bed. He is very treat/food motivated, possibly because he was quite underweight when he came into rescue. He likes to play with toys, especially stuffies, but hasn’t shown much interest in fetch. He gets along with the other dogs in his foster home, although he is at a disadvantage because he is deaf, but that doesn’t seem to slow him down. Farley is so cute! Especially when he does a funny little dance when he gets excited (his Chris Farley dance – think SNL) – sometimes spinning in circles, especially at feeding time or when you first get home. He walks on a leash. When he tries to get into something he shouldn’t, all it takes is a touch on him to catch his attention, make eye contact and direct him to something else more appropriate. He can be crated, although that is not his favorite, and at night, he typically sleeps on the bed (his foster parents caved because he is just too cute!) But because he likes to get into things, he does need to be crated when you are not home (he has gotten onto tables when he thinks there is food there). He may not be good in an apartment because when he first realizes he is alone, or when he is crated, he can panic and bark. He loves to be outside – if his people are there. If people are not outside with him in the yard, he will go out to do his business, and then wants to come back inside right after. If you are interested in Farley, please submit an application and one of our adoption counselors will contact you.

Story
All Dallas Dog adoptable pets are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines upon finalizing adoption. Puppies adopted under the age of five months require a spay/neuter contract, and all dogs are required to be spayed by six months unless otherwise medically noted. Our dogs are currently on heartworm preventative. Puppies receive 3 to 4 rounds of vaccinations depending on their age, and adults receive two rounds unless they've been with us longer than a year, in which case they receive the booster update. You can complete an application or view all the adoptable pets on our website at www.dallasdog.org/adopt. Upon receiving your application, please allow us 2-3 business days to review and process.

Story
My name is Banff and I am a Shih Tzu/Blue Heeler mix boy. That was determined with DNA. My mom is a Shih Tzu and my dad a Blue Heeler. I am active, smart, friendly and happy! I am good with other dogs and people. My foster mom does not know about cats though! I do need another young dog to play with. I would not be good with an older dog as I play a lot and would pester them. I am current on shots, neutered, microchipped and working on potty training. My adoption fee is $550. To apply, please complete an application form and send to sdrapplications@gmail.com https://www.bijouxelegance.com/shereesdogrescue/SDR_Application_03-17-2016.pdfYou can send an APPLICATION FORM  by email at: shereesdogrescue@gmail.com, or by fax at:  469-453-3331.  For more information, please call Linda at 972-658-2487.November 4, 2025, 9:18 pm

Story
Hi. Our names are Jacie and Jovie. We are small 4 and 5 year old female shih tzus. We are the best of friends and want to be together in our new forever home. We get along great with other dogs, but we are still learning to trust people. We have made a lot of progress, but we will still need an adopter who can be very patient with us as we continue our journey of learning to be dogs in a loving home. Can you find a place in your heart and your home for two sweet girls?
