Story
Hi everyone my name is Scrooge, not because I'm a crank. But because I was rescue during Christmas. I was in Terrible shape. I was rescued, nursed to a healthy weight and started heart worm treatment. Don't worry! MGAR is covering cost of treatment. Oh did I mention I have three legs? I'm house trained, extremely intelligent, and love my humans. I need to find a home who understands my grooming needs and is ready to love me, for me, three legs and all. Is that you? ##2303938##

Story
Halo is a 4 year old, 20lb Shih Tzu.  Halo was surrendered from his owners becayse she had a lot of dogs and wanted to downsize.  Halo is the cutest little boy who is missing half his jaw, so his little tongue hangs out of his mouth all the time - it might be the cutest thing ever! Halo needs an owner who is looking for a dog with a biiig, sassy personality.  Halo loves to snuggle and hang out with his foster Momma.  He gets along with other dogs and is great on a leash.  He is pretty well trained and listens well.  Halo is also a pretty stubborn little man.  If you are doing something he doesn't like (like giving him medicine or cleaning his years) he will let you know!  For some people this big personality is hilarous and they adore everything about him, but for others his big personality it a little too much.  This is the same with dogs for Halo.  He gets along great with other dogs, but if another dog steps on him, or tried to play with him when he isn't into it, he lets his annoyance known, so another easy going dog who isn't all over him all the time, or have a super dominant, snappy personality would be best for this little man.  Halo is sooo good and sooo deserving of the best forever family.   If you are interested in adopting little Halo, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2234207##

Story
Jimmy is 11 pounds of sweetness and spunk. We believe he is a Shih Tzu and about 3 years old.  He loves running around the yard with his foster dog siblings, and being cuddled by his foster human. Jimmy is mostly potty trained but will need a little work and patience in his forever home in a new environment.  He loves to play with tiny balls and chew toys. He is a great little boy and just needs a forever family of his own for the holidays!  We have learned that Jimmy is a little more nervous around men than women, and will need a little extra time to warm up.    He does great with ALL dogs and loves his hoomans. Jimmy will need a family who can get him groomed every 6-8 weeks to keep him looking handsome and clean.   If you are interested in adopting Jimmy, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2249011##

Shih Tzu Border Collie

Boulder, CO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Cronus's Momma was abandoned in New Mexico very pregnant.  Our rescue partners in the area were able to trap her and get her into a safe and warm foster home just 24 hours before giving birth to 5 beautiful babies.  Momma Wendy is about 15lbs and we believe she is a Shih Tzu or Shih Tzu mix.  We are guessing dad was a Border Collie Mix or something along those lines because they are a lot bigger than Momma and look like little fluffy Border Collie puppies.  We are guessing they will be about 25-35lbs when full grown.  Hopefully their forever humans will do breed tests on them because we are very curious!  Here is what Cronus's foster has to say about him:  "He is a Momma's boy.  He loves to snuggle and sleep with her.  He is also very affectionate and playful.  He has those short legs like his brother and is always down for a cuddle session." If you are interested in adopting Cronus or one of his siblings, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2313842##
