Adoption Fee: $325 Age: 6.5 years Weight: 12.7 lbs. Email: yorkietude@yahoo.com Fostered in Lago Vista, Texas NICO IS A SHIH-TZU/MALTESE MIX! 10/1/24 - 10/1/24 - Nico went for his check-up today and they did x-rays on both legs and all looks AMAZING! He is now clear from any restrictions!! Time to run and play. 6/26/24 - Hey everyone. Nico here. I went to the specialist on Monday and he gave me some news that I’ve somewhat heard before, but frankly was surprised. It seems my left acl is torn and on my right, there is a partial tear. You would not really know it. I am the happiest little man and love running and playing, but yep, somehow, I’ve managed to mess up both back legs. So, the plan is that on July 1st, just around the corner, the doctor will operate on my left leg and then I will have to rest for 4 weeks. Then we will look into fixing the right. I know this is going to cost a lot, but my foster mom said that I am worth it and that it is important to fix them now before it gets worse. So, if you don’t mind, say a couple prayers for me and think of me on July 1st. I’d really appreciate it. I’ve been in my foster home long enough now to give everyone an update on what my personality and the permanent home that would fit me best. I am currently in a foster home with other dogs and I am doing great with them. I tend be passive, as I don’t mind other dogs in my space, but if one of them shows any “warning” signs, I will match that energy. So, let’s just say, I won’t start it, but I can finish it. I love sleeping in the bed with foster mom and the other fur-babies. I am a hearty eater and I clean my bowl every time. My idea of playing with toys is to pick up one, shake it around a little bit and then walk away. Foster mom says that I am doing well in the potty-training department, but do have a few accidents here and there. I’m blaming these on a little anxiety when my person leaves right at first. Also, don’t even think about opening the door for me to go out to potty on my own. Not going to happen. I need my person with me or I’m not going. I’m really attached to foster mom, but if you want to know a secret, I love all people! So, if you like giving and getting attention, and don’t mind a handsome shadow, you just might be the person for me. Just no little ones in the house please. They make me nervous and I’m just not myself around them. Foster mom says I walk fine on a leash, but can be timid when outside the house. It’s too hot outside right now anyway. Let’s just go in the backyard and sit on the patio furniture. I love laying on the couch with my human, but I’ll need a little help getting up and down. I will occasionally use the doggy stairs, but I’d rather just be picked up. Truth be told, I would lay in my human’s lap ALL DAY LONG if they would let me. Not a huge kisser currently. Guess I just never learned that activity, but I do watch my foster fur-siblings kiss on foster mom and it seems like fun. Apartment life probably isn’t for me since I do know how to use my voice. When I see anyone passing by, I let them know that they will not be arriving unnoticed. Household noises don’t really faze me. Oh, I’m also vey good taking a bath and being groomed. Truth be told, I love spa day. Pamper me all you want. Foster mom is always telling me how smart I am. She’s right, and I don’t mind hearing it. I kind of dance to the beat of my own drum. I’m usually the first one to do things and don’t need another dog to follow me. To sum me up, I’m just a happy, sweet, handsome guy that is looking for a mom and or dad to adopt and love me. We can turn from strangers into family without the same blood, but with the same love. Are you that special someone who will give me a second chance at life and a new beginning? 4/30/24 - Nico came to YHR because he was not happy sharing time and space with the 3 small grandchildren coming to his previous home. Also, he had supposedly torn both of his ACLs and needed to visit a specialist to see if they were in fact torn and needed surgery and that was just all too much. He’s now in his foster home and his evaluation with the specialist is scheduled for May 2nd. Then we will definitely know what needs to be done and we can get on it. He is a very happy boy in his foster home and is fine around the other dogs. He loves sleeping in the bed with his foster mom and has an all-around pleasant personality. We are still accessing his personality and will update after his upcoming appointment.

Story
***COURTESY POST*** Meet Harold! Harold is a 3-year-old Chow/Shih Tzu mix and weighs about 25 pounds. He's a little shy at first, but once he comes around, WATCH OUT... he's a total love bug! Harold loves playing with his other 4-legged foster friends and playing "Chase me around the house while I carry your laundry in my mouth," with his foster mom. He is crate trained, house trained, walks well on a leash, and knows basic commands. Because of his uncertainty around humans, Harold would not be suitable for a home with children under the age of 12. He absolutely loves toys and totes them about so everyone can admire his good fortune. Harold's hobbies include plowing through sticker bushes, giving hugs, car trips, and cheese tastings. He dislikes all green foods and Taylor Swift. If you are interested in adopting Harold, please contact the Westie & Scottie Rescue Houston via email: westiehouston@gmail.com
