Story

Meet Pretty! Pretty is an almost 1 year old Shih Tzu / Havanese mix. She was bottle-fed and it shows in the best (and wildest) ways. Pretty is extremely social and absolutely convinced that every person and every dog on earth is her best friend. She loves people of all ages and thrives on being right in the middle of whatever is happening. Privacy? Never heard of her. ,She adores other dogs and must have a confident, playful companion dog in the home, ideally one who enjoys being parkour equipment. She is way too energetic for a senior person or senior dog and will happily bounce off furniture, walls, and occasionally your dignity. Her zoomies are legendary: not quick one-minute bursts, but full half-hour cardio sessions. True to her breed, Pretty does bark at people she sees but it is less of a "get off my lawn" and more of a "GET OVER HERE AND PLAY WITH ME". Cats, however, are a different story. After being slapped by one, she decided to hold a lifelong grudge and is now a committed cat chaser. She is athletic, nosey, and always where the action is. She also loves mud like it's a lifestyle choice, so her future family should expect regular grooming to keep her mat-free and clean. Party girl energy, spa-day maintenance. Pretty has an oversized tongue, a tiny jaw, and malformed or missing teeth, which means her tongue is always out and somehow always adorable. Annual dental and oral checkups will be important, as dental disease could be a concern down the road. Her biggest flaw? A complete lack of survival instincts. Pretty fully expects you to catch her when she launches herself into a trust fall or trust leap. She operates under the unshakable belief that the world is safe, everyone loves her, and gravity is optional. She's never met a stranger in her life. If you are looking for a fearless, chaotic, affectionate little rock star who lives life at full volume, Pretty is ready to steal the spotlight (and your heart). Pretty is vaccinated, spayed and chipped. Her adoption fee is $450 We cover the medical to prepare the pet for adoption and the adopt donations go directly to cover those costs and range from $295-$495. Thank you for stepping up to save a life! To expedite to meet with this dog, please go to our site at www.savinggreatanimals.org and fill out an application. We look at the first applications to arrive, so we hope to hear from you soon! February 9, 2026, 8:04 pm

Gig Harbor, WA

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Our super sweet boy Archie is visually impaired. We think he may see shadows, and does have some vision in his right eye (it keeps him from walking into things). He does really well with the impairment and it's difficult to tell he has vision loss! It does not slow him down at ALL! He is a good eater, potty trained and loves to play tug of war with his toys. He is a very loving and sweet boy. He will bark to sound out his environment and may get a little anxious, but just provide him attention and he’s fine. Whoever becomes his forever family needs to know just how special he is and be prepared to be patient to work with him, because he is definitely worth it. Good with children 8 years and older and a fenced yard. (An adoption fee of $500 is required.) If you are interested in this dog, please go to the Adopt page of our website where you will find a link to an adoption application form. https://www.chewdogrescue.org/adopt If you have previously submitted an application form to CHEW, there is no need to reapply. Just let us know you're interested in this dog. We do our best to match families and dogs so everyone is pleased and the placement is permanent. We reserve the right to refuse an applicant if the home situation is incompatible with the needs of the rescue dog. Rescue is about doing our best for the dog. We do home and reference checks. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and are up to date with current vaccinations before being placed in their forever homes.

Story

Beacon is a six year old Shih Tzu. He’s a sweet, calm little man who is looking for a loving home. He has done really well since coming into foster care and has relaxed and is enjoying life. He is great about going potty outside on leash or roaming free in fenced yard. He is pretty quick about doing his business and isn’t bothered by a little rain. At night, he enjoys white noise (if there’s a lot of traffic sounds) but he sleeps really well all night in his space in the bathroom. During the day he comes out and hangs out with his foster mom and takes naps on the couch. He enjoys belly rubs and sitting by the fireplace. He has been very comfortable around our indoor cats. He shows no aggression towards them or any other animals he’s encountered. He has found some cat toys he likes and picks them up and carries them around. He’s slowly learning to play. He likes car rides and sits in his doggy car seat like a gentleman. He has been so good with baths and his eye meds. A calm reassuring voice is all he needs to understand that you are helping him. He is fairly comfortable around adults and teens and has shown no aggression at all. He’s getting more confident every day. He is a wonderful companion who enjoys sitting on the couch watching tv or walking around the block sniffing bushes and wagging his tail. Beacon is a good boy!

Story

Sweetie Pie is a Shih Tzu puppy. She is very sweet and completely calm. She has playful energy but is also very calm and cuddly. She will follow you around the house and loves to be with her people. She is absolutely amazing with small kids. She sleeps in a soft crate with access to water and a pee pad inside a playpen. She is great at sleeping mostly through the night but will bark in the morning to let you know she wants to go outside. She is really good at going potty outside as long as she is taken out frequently. She is having almost no accidents and getting better each day. She is a quick learner and is sometimes even walking to the door when she wants out. She is absolutely amazing with small kids even letting them carry her around and invaded her space constantly and she seems to love it, she is so calm and patient with their kid energy. She is good with other dogs, at least small ones, and with children. She is fine riding in a car. She is definitely food motivated. She will be an absolute dream for anyone looking for a sweet cuddly pup. -----  A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters: Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained. Most come from tough or uncertain beginnings and may have never lived in a home or known basic routines. That means:  ✧ They are not potty trained on arrival. Most dogs regress in potty training when moving to a new environment.  ✧ They may lack basic manners (like leash walking or appropriate chewing).  ✧ They’re learning, growing, and doing their best—but they will need patience, structure, and compassion to succeed.  The majority of these pups have lived in the confinement of a cage or kennel run for most - if not all - of their lives. Because of this, we strongly discourage the use of crates for anything other than vehicle transport. They deserve the chance to decompress and learn what true freedom and comfort feel like.  Our amazing foster homes work hard to start these dogs on the right path, but they are rescues, not finished products. These dogs need time, consistency, and a loving home willing to meet them where they are.  Also, breed designations are our best guesses based on appearance and behavior. We can't guarantee breed, size, adult weight, or coat type.
