Story
Meet Levi! This handsome Shih Tzu Poodle mix is a 1 1/2 years old and a perfect 11lb lap size. He has the most gorgeous partial blue eye! Levi is a breeder release that was attacked by other male dogs. His hair is still growing back on his hips and side. Fortunately, this has not affected how he reacts to other dogs. He hasn’t met a dog he didn’t like! Levi is a bit shy but he has become quite accustomed to being spoiled. He has came a long way in his foster home but will need reassurance as he continues to come out of his shell. Even though he is still unsure of humans, he enjoys playing with other dogs and would benefit from a friend. Levi loves to be outside. A doggie dog would be a plus for him! He is completely potty trained. He doesn’t really like a kennel but he also doesn’t need to be in one. He promises not to bother anything when left alone. He rides great in the car but is still learning how to walk on a leash. I know there is someone out there willing to give this handsome boy a chance. He deserves so much better than the life he has had!

Story
Obi is a 5 year old mixed breed who is around 40 lbs. He is an incredibly sweet dog who loves his people. He is a very lazy guy who loves to snuggle up on the couch with you. When he has access to a yard he does love to run and play but he is perfectly content to lay around and be lazy. Obi has coexisted in a home with other pets his whole life. He has lived with both dogs and cats before but he does have a tendency to resource guard and it can cause issues sometimes. Obi would do best in a home with older children or just adults. He has only been around small children a few times and they seem to make him a little uncomfortable. Although Obi does have some quirks, he is an incredibly sweeet and loyal boy who would make an incredible family member!

Story
Meet Astro! Astro is a 13-month-old, 10 pound male Shih Tzu with a big personality and an even bigger heart! This social, energetic little guy loves to run and play, so a fenced yard is a must for his zoomies. He’s a toy enthusiast, always ready for a game of fetch or some fun playtime. Astro is incredibly loving—he adores snuggling and sticking close to his humans. He gets along great with other dogs and would make a fantastic family companion. One of his favorite spots is perched on the back of the couch, keeping an eye on the world outside. He walks well on a leash, enjoys car rides (though he needs to be safely tethered), and thrives on companionship. If you're looking for a playful, affectionate pup who will be your loyal sidekick, Astro is your guy! Astro is up to date on all of his vaccinations, heartworm negative, on heartworm and flea preventative, neutered, and microchipped. Astro’s adoption fee is $ 375.00. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging transport. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS. If you're interested after reading his bio, please fill out an application on AAP’s website.
