Story

Gold Fish is a Shih Tzu/ toy Poodle puppy. He is a sweet pup with a big heart. He likes to play with his toys and can self-entertain, though he prefers human interaction. Goldfish is learning to play fetch with a poof ball and loves being praised when he returns it. He loves cats, but can sometimes be a bit too energetic for them. Goldfish enjoys Zoom meetings and is an excellent office companion. He will happily play and nap while his person works from home. Goldfish sleeps in a crate at night with his foster sister. After a few whimpers, he goes right to sleep and generally sleeps through the night. He likes a nightlight in the room. During the day, he will sometimes choose to sleep in his crate for naps, though he prefers to nap in a bed or lap near his people. Goldfish does a good job of going to the bathroom outside each morning. He will also go potty outside anytime he is outdoors. When in his room/pen, he usually goes on the mat. However, when out in the larger areas of our house, he tends to go wherever is convenient, so he needs help learning to go win appropriate places. Goldfish is playful and snuggly when in a room with his people, however, when left alone in a room, he tends to whimper for a minute until he settles. He is good with cats and dogs and Ok riding in a car. He is one terrific little dog! -----  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.

Story

Top Knot is a Shih Tzu puppy and he loves to play with toys. He's very good with other dogs and cats. He sleeps in the bedroom near his humans in a pack n play. He does not want to be right in the bed, but does not want to be alone. During the day he sleeps in the office on a rug. He watches the other dogs go on a mat and will go on it occasionally and then, sometimes he just goes wherever he is. He is very timid and afraid so when he goes somewhere other than the mat we give him general encouragement to use the mat instead. We just clean it up and move on. He was used to cleaning up after himself (yuck) when he was in his kennel, so picking it up very quickly to try to stop him from doing that is good. He is nervous around every one. I think he will grow out of this but he's just not there yet. His good with other dogs, cats, and cars. He's very sweet and if you can win his trust he is just going to need some extra effort to get to the point where he trusts humans. He is so sweet and he deserves lots of love and care. -----  A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters: Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained.

Story

Bouffant is a 2 year old Shih Tzu. She’s a bit shy around other animals (cats and dogs) but not aggressive. She is still opening up a bit, but only time will tell. She has experience around other small dogs, but not around big dogs or high energy dogs. She likes to be carried around and snuggle on laps. She is not timid or aggressive. She sleeps in the bed. She has a play pen but she escaped by climbing the side so that does not work. “ So far pretty good with potty time as long as she goes outside a lot. She does not like the rain much. She is nervous around the cats and dogs a bit but may warm up with time. She does not like it when other dogs are barking. She is sweet and gentle and not all that playful yet. She probably just needs some time to come out of her shell as time goes on. -----  A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters: Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained.

BeefJerky

Shih Tzu Pointer

Male, 4 mos

Seattle, WA

Size

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

Story

Beef Jerky is a Shih Tzu puppy with a curious spirit, a playful side, and just the right amount of cuddle. He’s the perfect little sidekick who loves being near his people—following you from room to room—but doesn’t need to be glued to you 24/7. BeefJerky is a confident little explorer who enjoys checking out his surroundings, playing with toys, and having the occasional playful wrestle with other small dogs. That said, he’s also grown comfortable being a solo pup and would do just fine as your one-and-only or with a canine companion. He’s not possessive of his humans and has shown no signs of aggression—just a happy, curious puppy figuring out the world. He’s great with kids, though like many puppies, he appreciates his space when he’s tired and may give a gentle “hands off” warning. He’s perfectly comfortable being handled by his trusted humans and absolutely loves greeting you with sweet little kisses. Beef Jerky is already picking up on some basics—he knows how to sit and is working on “lay down.” He’s very food motivated (which helps a lot with training!) and has no issues around food. He’s doing well with puppy pads most of the time, though he’s still learning, and hasn’t quite figured out going potty outside yet—but he does love exploring the yard. At night, he sleeps in a crate or playpen and does well. He may wake up briefly for a little nighttime wiggle or play, but settles back down easily. He’s comfortable in his crate and has even made it his little treasure den—don’t be surprised if your socks or shoes mysteriously disappear and end up tucked away with him! 😆 He also has a soft spot for cozy spaces like baskets, where he keeps his favorite blankets and toys. BeefJerky rides well in the car after a short adjustment period and has even done great in a backpack carrier while out and about. He’s a quiet, adaptable pup who just wants to be part of the action—whether that’s playtime, adventure time, or winding down at home. BeefJerky is truly a sweet, silly, and lovable little guy who’s ready to find his forever home. Whoever adopts him is getting a loyal companion with a playful heart and lots of love to give. -----  A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters: Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained.

Bosier

Shih Tzu

Seattle, WA

Size

Details

Story

Bosier is a darling little Shih Tzu puppy with a personality that’s equal parts sweet, snuggly, and spunky. This amazing little guy might be a bit hesitant if you reach right for him, but the moment you get down on his level, he’s all in—trotting over to climb into your lap for cuddles like he’s known you forever. Bosier has that perfect puppy balance—he loves to play, chase his toys, and show off his impressive fetch skills (seriously, he’ll retrieve like a pro and bring the ball right back every time!), but he’s just as happy curling up beside you, in your lap, or in his cozy bed for a nap. At night, he’s a total dream, sleeping soundly in bed with his people—usually perched on a pillow where he can catch a little breeze from the fan. He’s already off to a fantastic start with his potty training. Bosier is very consistent with potty pads and also goes outside first thing in the morning and after playtime. Like any puppy, he’s still learning to let you know when he needs to go out, but he’s doing so well and picking things up quickly. He eats and drinks great (though he can get a little distracted—there are toys to play with, after all!), and does best when he has a calm space to finish his meals. Bosier is respectful, gentle, and gets along beautifully with other dogs. He takes correction well and only needed one reminder about giving other pups space during mealtime. He can live with cats too—he might be curious if they run, but once he gets close, he just wants to sniff and say hello. He hasn’t been around very young kids yet, but he’s friendly and responsive, so with guidance, he should do just fine. He may get a little excited and jump, but with his tiny legs and eagerness to learn, it’s easily manageable. He rides great in the car, does wonderfully during bath time, and is overall a pretty quiet pup—he doesn’t bark much, but will give you a little alert when someone comes through the front door. Bosier absolutely adores people and will happily nap wherever his humans are—on the couch, in his bed nearby, or curled up right next to you. While he loves his brother, he’s also perfectly comfortable doing his own thing and settling in independently. This sweet boy truly is something special. So many of the typical puppy challenges have already been worked through, making Bosier an absolute dream for someone ready to welcome a loving, playful, and cuddly companion into their life. -----  A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters: Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained.

Story

Blowout (Gus Gus) is seriously such a special little puppy. He may only be about 5 pounds, but you would never guess it with how confident he is. He carries himself like a much bigger dog and doesn’t let his tiny size slow him down one bit. More than anything, he just wants to love and be loved. He’s always giving kisses, snuggling in as close as he can, and following his people around so he doesn’t miss out on anything. He has a really playful, happy personality and absolutely loves being around other dogs. He plays hard with the other dogs, doing everything he can to keep up with them like he’s one of the big boys. It’s honestly so cute to watch because he puts his whole heart into it. He doesn’t give up and doesn’t seem to realize how small he is. That fearless attitude makes him a lot of fun, but it’s something that can be stressful since he’ll jump right into anything without hesitation. When he’s not playing, he’s usually trotting around exploring or just being his happy little self. He loves his toys and bones, and that boy loves to eat! He barks like a maniac if he sees himself or anyone else in a mirror, it’s hilarious to watch! He’s curious about everything and already thinks he can do big things, like going up the stairs (with supervision), although going down is still a little too scary for him right now. He has the cutest little squishy face, complete with an adorable little black beard. Because his face is so small and smooshy, when he drinks water, he kind of dunks half his face in the bowl, leaving his little beard dripping and soaked, it’s the cutest thing ever. He also snores pretty loudly for such a tiny little guy. One of the best things about him is how he’s always walking around with his tongue hanging out like he’s smiling. He truly just seems so happy all the time, like he’s out here living his best little puppy life and enjoying every second of it. Overall, Gus Gus is a loving, playful, confident little guy with a big personality packed into a tiny body. He would do best in a home that will give him lots of love and attention and keep up with his playful energy. He would thrive in a home with another puppy/dog to snuggle, protect him and that he can follow around. -----  A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters: Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained.

Story

Permanent, Loving Homes Needed for Senior Rescue Dogs Over many years, I have monitored and tried to help this particular group of dogs. These dogs have been loved, responsibly vetted, and cared for throughout their lives, though not in an ideal overall situation. They were in a somewhat hoarding situation… not the typical not cared for at all one, but still applies. They were kept clean and fed and I paid for most of their vet care along the way, but their owner would not surrender them until now. I am finally allowed to find them homes, and cannot provide the level of long-term veterinary care these dogs deserve — including dental work, senior monitoring, and ongoing medical needs, thus, I am seeking permanent, stable homes where their remaining years can be lived with comfort, dignity, and consistency. What I am looking for • A calm, stable home • Someone experienced with senior dogs • Financial ability to provide ongoing veterinary and dental care • A commitment to keep them for life — no rehoming • Patience, kindness, and realistic expectations These dogs are older (aged 8 to 12 years old), and while many are still active, affectionate, and content, they will require the kind of care someone prepared for senior dogs can provide. What I will provide Full transparency about age, temperament, and medical needs Important medical history is known I do not have every vaccine record/etc but they are all spayed/ neutered, microchipped, and current on rabies vaccines Time for proper introductions Careful, thoughtful placement — this will not be rushed I am open to placing individual dogs or compatible pairs, and I will work closely with the right people to ensure a good match. If you are genuinely experienced with senior dogs and are prepared — financially and emotionally— to care for one for the rest of their life, please reach out by private message and tell me about yourself, your home, and your experience. These dogs deserve peace, safety, and love for the remainder of their lives. Thank you for reading with compassion. Hi, we're Misty and Lulu, real sisters (in the Seattle area) with hearts full of love. We can be adopted together or separate. We're sweet, friendly, and mellow. At 9 and 20 lbs, we're a perfectly bonded pair, if you are open to 2, but also do fine separately. We are fully vetted and ready to find a forever home where we can share our loyalty and love. We promise to fill your home with warmth and companionship. Consider making us a part of your family; we're just waiting to love and be loved in return. Note: when proof of dental is sent, the adoption fee will be returned to the adopter. We are DESPERATE for a home of our own. We are about 8 years old. Despite our different looks, we are true sisters from the same purebred shih tzu mommy dog. We are 2 of the best pups there too (we don't just say that, our fosters tell us so as well). They say we are absolutely too sweet and wonderful to be stuck without a home of our own. We do great with kids, cats, and other dogs... as long as the other dogs are not bossy or mean to us. We do pretty good not pottying in the house as long as we are kept on a regular schedule going outside. We are super sweet natured. We love to see what you are doing and just be near you whatever that is. We are not super high energy, so no need to do any dramatic things with us activity wise. We just love attention and cuddles! We need to be monitored when fed so Lulu doesn't eat all of the food... she tends to like it the most and steals mine when she can. I know we aren't young puppies anymore, but please give us a chance. Our rescue has a trial designed for you... so that you can be sure we are a good fit with your situation. Our vetting up to date (spay, heartworm free and on preventative, rabies, microchip, other vaccines up to date), with the exception of our dentals that need updated. We had our last dental about 3 years ago. I (Misty) have an old eye injury that I have had since a puppy. It does not bother me I am so used to not seeing too well out of that eye.

Story

Meet Flash! Hi there! My name is Flash, and I’m a 10-year-old, 12-pound Lhasa Apso (or something close to it!) with a big personality packed into a little body. I’m a social guy who truly loves everyone I meet—no warm-up period needed! I’ve been around children ages four and up and do great with them. In fact, one of my favorite parts of the day is when the kids get home from school—I get so excited to see them and join in on the fun! I’m a well-mannered gentleman with great house habits. I’m house trained and prefer lounging on my cozy dog bed over spending time in a crate. I walk nicely on a leash and really enjoy getting out for strolls where I can take my time sniffing, exploring, and checking out the world around me. I even like water, so maybe there are some beach adventures in my future! When it comes to other dogs, I do best with calm, respectful companions. Dogs that are too dominant or “in your face” can make me a little nervous, so I’d love a laid-back canine friend—or to be your one and only. My vision isn’t perfect, but don’t worry—I get around just fine! I may see shadows here and there, but I navigate my world confidently and don’t bump into things. I’m neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped, so I’m all set for my next chapter. If you’re looking for a sweet, friendly, easygoing companion to share your days with, I might just be your guy. I came into rescue after a nice lady kept seeing me tied up outside a local tire shop. I would just lay on the concrete all day. My new people talked the owner of the tire shop into letting me have a better life by finding a new family. That was no way for me to live.

Story

Barber is a 2 year old Papillon. He is a distinguished young man who has a great tail and a perfect downward dog pose. He often has 1 ear up and 1 down. He is very mellow and calm. He seems a little unsure about being a free dog, but he is also super sweet and asks for and seeks affection in a gentle and kind way. He is curious and likes to be near people. He doesn't know how to be a lap dog yet, but wants to be. He loves gentle affection. He is also trusting and not afraid of people. He's a great little dog! He often curls up in his crate or just plops down on the floor. He is unfamiliar with couches or beds. Barber is learning to go potty outside but had lots of accidents in the beginning. It's gotten much better when he needs to be taken out more frequently. He’s been going out every 2 hrs and no accidents since. He is also learning the command 'go potty' and is doing well. He is a fast learner. He is a timid little guy and a very gentle soul. I think he will need someone to help him gain confidence about being a free dog. He seems to really like his crate for naps so he would be easy to crate train. He might do best in a quiet, slow, relaxed home. He is skiddish with fast movements. He is not his ideal weight and would benefit from gaining a little weight. You can pick him up and even though he's a little unsure about it, he still allows it and enjoys being held. Good with other dogs, cats, but doesn’t have much experience with kids. He is so distinguished and somewhat reserved. The way he moves is dainty. He follows his human around the yard and if he does venture off it's really easy to get him to come back. He is also laid back and a really easy dog. He just needs more confidence and frequent potty breaks. -----  A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters: Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained.

Ouai is a sweet and calm girl who loves to be held! She is a Lhasa Apso/Miniature Poodle puppy. She is happy to be carried around, ride in the car on your lap, or snuggle up on the couch. Ouai has the softest silkiest hair and wags her little tail the moment she sees you. Ouai is doing well going potty outside and when she’s inside will seek out the pee pass.

Ouai loves kids and has been comfortable with ages 2-14, cats, small and big resident dogs. Squeaky toys and little stuffies are her fave toys!
