Shih Tzu puppies and dogs in Vermont

Laramie Claudette Snack Size Socialite has a very reasonable wish list: a few cute dresses, some good snackies, and someone who understands that an afternoon outing should be followed by a substantial nap. At a whopping nine pounds, she’s barely bigger than the contents of your purse—and considerably cuter. This little lady is ready to be dressed, adored, and told she’s the cutest thing in the whole wide world. Regularly, please. Go watch Laramie Claudette on YouTube to meet this tiny socialite and see her cuteness in motion. Copy and paste this link in your browser- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxl48zlJ2II Laramie is estimated to be eight years old, and she is fully embracing her senior lady life. She’s fostered in a loving home, where one of her most endearing qualities is how content she is. Happy to be with you, comfortable doing her own thing, and always prepared for a nap, she makes relaxing look like a skill worth putting on a résumé. She’s a great little car rider and settles comfortably in your arms when carried. A cute outfit and an outing with her favorite person are right up her alley. She has strong “let’s browse Marshalls” energy, followed by “we’ve done enough for today” energy. Both are equally charming! Her outdoor plans are just as lovely. Laramie enjoys a good roll in the grass, especially when the sun is shining. A little wiggle, a little stretch, a little sunshine on that tiny body—this girl knows how to enjoy herself without making a whole production of it. She lives happily with a variety of dogs and enjoys their companionship, though she’s quite content to leave the games to everyone else. Another easygoing dog would be welcome, but she could also happily be your one and only. What really fills her love tank is a person who will rub on her, kiss her little face, offer a snack, and help her choose her outfit for the day. Feline friends are welcome, too. Laramie lives with a cat and was very respectful when meeting our house cat. She seems to understand that when the cat is bigger than you, a little courtesy goes a long way. Laramie also has a daily eye-drop routine to keep up with. Her drops are affordable, and she’ll need someone who makes them a consistent part of her care, right alongside the meals, naps, and compliments. Her ideal home has plenty of affection, a comfortable place to snooze, and someone who enjoys the company of a little lady who is already quite good at being herself. She doesn’t need a packed calendar. A sunny patch of grass, a little adventure together, and a loving place to land will suit Laramie Claudette beautifully. In love?

Meet Queenie Penny Paloma Your Lap, Her Throne If you know Shih Tzus, you already know... this little lady isn’t giving her heart away to just anybody. She likes to take a minute to observe the room and make sure you pass her vibe check first. Give her a little patience, a calm voice and the freedom to come to you, and before long, she’ll be scooting closer for pets. She would absolutely love a person who works from home or has plenty of time to be her BFF. She loves attention, on her terms, of course and once you’ve earned her trust, your lap will quickly become her favorite place to be. She is calm, low energy and perfectly content with a cozy place to lounge. She doesn’t need a packed social calendar or a complicated exercise routine; she’s looking for a peaceful home where life moves at her speed. She walks beautifully on leash, travels well in the car, settles easily in her kennel and would be perfectly happy in an apartment or a house. With other dogs, thoughtful introductions are the way to her heart. She especially enjoys small dogs, has an adorable, bouncy play style and is far too classy for any rough-and-tumble wrestling. She currently lives with cats and would do well with a calm, dog-savvy kitty. Her ideal family will understand that trust is something you build, not something you rush. A quieter home with adults or children over 10 would suit her best. Once she feels safe, her reserved little exterior gives way to a sweet, affectionate companion who wants a person she can call her own. If you understand the special charm of a Shih Tzu and don’t mind letting a tiny queen set the pace she may be exactly the girl you’ve been waiting for.  Check out Queenie Penny Paloma's Video: Ready to give you lap up to this tiny queen?

Louella is 2 years old, she is looking for a home with her mom Lola who is 4 years old. Until recently they were loved family members. Sadly their mom had to move in with her daughter, and the daughter said they couldn't come. We promised to keep them together. They are good with other dogs and people of all ages. They are also housebroken.

He enjoys running, playing chase, and hanging out with canine friends of all sizes. He has wonderful social skills, shares toys nicely, and even patiently waits his turn for treats.
