Temperament:  very sweet, quiet, friendly Energy level:  low Groom needs:  high maintenance;  requires regular professional grooming, along with intermittent brushing to avoid matting Biography:  We were contacted by a relative about Lillie Grace and Lexie Lynn that their owner died suddenly in her home.  She was single and wasn't found until four days later when she wasn't responding to friends and family.  If you're single, living alone... please set up a daily call or text with someone... anyone...  so that if they don't hear from you, someone knows you're not ok.  Thankfully, her little dogs were ok.  They are very sweet and were lovingly cared for by their mom.  A relative was able to tell us a few things about the girls:  They are sisters from the same mother but different litters.  Not sure about the dad, though.  They were used to sleeping in the bed with their person or on the couch, they traveled well, walked well on a leash, they understand "no" but don't know much else, they are responsive when called, Lillie does get nervous during bad weather and fireworks and she can also be a bit timid at first and they both do really well during grooming and are used to being groomed regularly.  Those approved and wanting both Lillie Grace and Lexie Lynn WILL get first consideration over all others.  Please understand that most people don't want two dogs and we won't hold onto them for long waiting on that one person.  It's not fair to them to spend a long time in a shelter environment.  If you'd like to bring either or both into your heart and home, we welcome your application!   **WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW** *We do adopt out of state provided the adopter is willing and able to travel to us once approved.  We do not ship or transport our animals and there is no exception to this rule.   *Most of our adoptable dogs are small, and they are never to be left outside alone, ever!  We only rehome our dogs to adopters that plan to have them as inside dogs and part of the family!   We do allow adopters with doggie doors, provided there is SECURE fencing and the dog is over 15 pounds.  There is no exception to this rule!   *PREDATORS:    IF THIS DOG IS UNDER 10 POUNDS, the dog is to be monitored and protected when outside at all times!  PREDATOR-THREAT IS A REAL DANGER!  For example, a hawk tried to pick up a Chihuahua owned by a friend visiting Ninna’s house… RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE VISITOR.  Thankfully the visitor was watching the dog and the hawk was wrestled off of the Chihuahua but it did require an ER visit and she is was very lucky to survive.   TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!     *NO SMALL CHILDREN!!  As with almost all the dogs at NR2R, young children or a very active household is not recommended.   Many of our dogs come to us BECAUSE of small children, thus we do not rehome our dogs to homes with babies or young children.  KEEP THIS IN MIND IF YOU HAVE VISITING GRANDCHILDREN AS WELL!  Even if the children are older, it would depend on the child AND the parent or parents.    *HOUSETRAINING:  We do NOT guarantee that any of our adoptable dogs are housetrained.   While most should be easily trained, keep in mind that they live in a rescue where they have access to the outdoors all day and are inside at night.  Even if they were surrendered to us as housetrained, it doesn’t mean they will automatically be housetrained in your home.  Housetraining them should be easy in the right home with time, patience, and consistency.    *KENNELING:  We always recommend kenneling when you cannot supervise your dog.  This helps with housetraining and any destructive tendencies until you get to know your new addition.   *We do not guarantee the age, health or temperament of any of the dogs we rehome.  Many of the dogs we take in come from animal control and rarely do we have histories and even when we do, many times the histories are inaccurate.   *Only adopters with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply.   If you bring this pet into your heart and home, you will receive in return many years of love, companionship, and loyalty.  That’s our guarantee.   Other notes:  This pet is available for adoption through Ninna’s Road to Rescue, Benton, La.  We are 501c3 non-profit organization.  Our mission is to rescue primarily small-breed dogs and to re-home them into RESPONSIBLE and CARING forever homes.    DOG APPLICATION LINK:   http://www.roadtorescuela.org/dog-application Time may be of the essence if you are looking to adopt a specific animal.  We do not reserve animals, unless and until we have approved your application, provided the animal is still available at the time we receive your application.  The first APPROVED application we receive will be considered.  We are NOT a first come, first serve rescue!!

Please read the pet description IN IT'S ENTIRETY before applying.  Thank you for your cooperation. Video link:  https://youtube.com/shorts/xOc6gtt9474  FOR ADOPTION! READY TO LEAVE ON OR AFTER July 18, 2026. Taking applications NOW!    When applying, please put TOY STORY PUPPIES! Note: Only those with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply. INSTRUCTIONS TO APPLY: PLEASE read profile thoroughly BEFORE applying: DOG APPLICATION LINK: http://www.roadtorescuela.org/dog-application RESERVING A PUPPY: If your application is approved, you will be contacted by phone. Specific puppies are only reserved with a $100 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit once the approved adopter is notified. Burned Rag Doll (female) Intake date:  7/3/2026 Breed:  Shih Tzu DOB:  5/9/2026 Weight on intake:  2.8 pounds Adoption fee and vetting: $425, which comes with $50 spay/neuter REBATE coupon redeemable once puppy is spayed/neutered no later than 6 months of age; includes age-appropriate vaccinations (at least two, plus Bordetella); deworming; microchipped   Benefactor Dog/Puppy:  When we have a popular dog or puppy, we dub them a “Benefactor Dog”.  A Benefactor Dog will have an above average adoption fee.  In other words, for OTHER dogs where the adoption fee is minimal or waived due to age, health or some other reason (although we’ve likely spent hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars) a Benefactor dog will help us somewhat make up the shortfall.  If this dog has an above-average adoption fee, she/he is a Benefactor Dog. Good with other dogs: yes Cats: yes Health issues: none found.   Biography: PLEASE keep in mind your AGE! Despite what you may want, we want YOU to outlive the pup… not the other way around! Puppies (especially small-breed) can live 15-20 years!   Named after Toy Story characters, these little Shih Tzu puppies came to us through a rescue friend who contacted us.  We were told the breeder couldn't sell them so we took them in.  We noticed immediately that they did a lot of scratching, so we took them to our vet to find out what, if anything, was going on.  The vet did not find any mites but they did find, under the microscope, that their coats appeared to be covered in something.  We're not sure what, but to err on the side of caution, the vet dosed them all with Credelio Quattro, which protects against fleas, ticks and any other kind of mite.  We also bathed them in Dawn as an added measure.  The scratching has decreased quite a bit.   These puppies are precious, sweet and playful.  We know that they are going to make some lucky families very happy! VACCINATIONS and PROTECTING YOUR PUPPY! Your puppy has NOT been fully vaccinated! While with us, your puppy has been completely protected the entire time. Your puppy has not been outside of their protective puppy pen except to clean. IF your puppy got two (or more) rounds of vaccinations before leaving, then your puppy was released to be with the other non-quarantined dogs. It’s important to keep your puppy away from high-traffic stores or areas where there is a potential that there are unvaccinated dogs or areas where you know there were puppies that have had or have parvo. Parvo is a silent killer and is everywhere... so just like you would a newborn human baby... protect your puppy. Your puppy will require MORE vaccinations which will be discussed at the time of adoption. YOU MUST FOLLOW-UP WITH YOUR VET TO GET YOUR PUPPY ON A SCHEDULE! Parvo is everywhere and IT IS A KILLER OF PUPPIES! You WILL be required to SIGN a contract that you agree to continue the puppy vaccinations until your puppy has been fully inoculated. Be aware… we will follow-up! WHY SO MANY VACCINATIONS? Most people don’t understand why a puppy needs multiple puppy vaccinations so some people don’t go beyond the first set. This is a HUGE MISTAKE. We’ll explain: In the beginning, while nursing, the puppy receives ample immunity from their mother. Once weaned, they are susceptible to dangerous viruses such as parvo, the puppy killer, and distemper… among other things. At 6 weeks they should receive their first round of puppy vaccinations. Why isn’t this enough? Because you don’t know when the mother’s immunity is no longer effective and if they receive it while still with the mother’s immunity, it doesn’t do any good. This is WHY they need to continue with boosters. At some point one or more of those vaccinations will become their immunity. Don’t risk your puppy’s life! While some vets only do three sets, we recommend four sets. If you’ve ever had a puppy die of parvo… it is something you will never ever forget. (Keep in mind we are not veterinarians and cannot give advice, so don’t take our word for it… talk to your licensed veterinarian.) SPAY/NEUTER REBATE PROGRAM: Due to the age of this pet, he/she may not be spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. If this is the case, you will receive a $50 rebate coupon which will entitle you to a rebate of $50 once your pet is spayed/neutered and valid ONLY IF DONE ON OR BEFORE 6 MONTHS OF AGE! It is REQUIRED and part of our adoption contract that all unaltered pets be spayed/neutered no later than 6 months of age and we DO follow up! PUPPIES! Keep in mind, puppies teeth just like human babies and have little sharp toenails. They will also have behaviors that require training. Puppies will cry, chew, bite, mouth, nip, bark, destroy, dig, scratch, etc. The puppy phase lasts about 18 months (sometimes longer), so be sure you ARE READY for the commitment! Don't even think about applying if you have any doubts about raising a puppy... and don't expect children to take care of the puppy... because they won't! This needs to be an adult decision and an adult commitment. POTTY TRAINING: A puppy can only hold their bladder for a short period of time based upon their age. If the puppy is 2 months old, they can hold their bladder for 2 hours; 3 months/3 hours; 4 months/ 4 hours, etc., up to 6 months of age. At about 6 months of age, this time frame stables out. Puppies are a 10-15 year commitment (sometimes longer). Please be sure you are prepared for the life of the puppy! In conclusion, if your puppy is in a responsible home that provides daily structure, training and socialization with people and other pets, your puppy will grow to be a well-adjusted and wonderful part of your family for many years to come. COMMITMENT: Puppies are a 10-15 year commitment (sometimes longer). Please be sure you are prepared for the life of the puppy! Bear in mind your AGE! While life is never guaranteed, we want the odds to be that YOU outlive the puppy, not the other way around. In conclusion, if your puppy is in a responsible home that provides daily structure, training and socialization with people and other pets, your puppy will grow to be a well-adjusted and wonderful part of your family for many years to come. **IMPORTANT NOTES** *We do adopt out of state provided the adopter is willing and able to travel to us once approved.

Housetraining them should be easy in the right home with time, patience, and consistency. *We do not guarantee the age, health or temperament of any of the dogs we rehome. Many of the dogs we take in come from animal control and rarely do we have histories and even when we do, many times the histories are inaccurate. *Only adopters with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply.
