Story
Meet Sprinkles, a sweet 2-year-old Shih Tzu looking for her forever home. Sprinkles lived with an elderly person who passed away and was kept in a playpen her entire life, never going outside or meeting other animals or people. Despite her sheltered upbringing, Sprinkles is incredibly friendly and craves human affection. She only wants to be held, cuddled, and feel safe. Sprinkles would thrive in a quiet home where she can be a constant companion to someone who understands her need for comfort and security. If you're looking for a loyal, loving little dog to share your life with, Sprinkles is ready to be your perfect snuggle buddy.

Story
I adopted Milton from Bleus K 9. Milton is 6 years old. Want Milton to be safe and loved and taken care of like I would. He is a sweet and lovable dog. He needs attention. He loves everybody and he greets everybody that comes to the house. He would be good if he was the only dog. I think he has anxiety when he is left alone home by himself. He is pee pee pad trained and I do walk him like 3 times a day but he will use the pee pee pad, He is very cute and handsome. You see I have a Tea cup shi tzu and he is small and I can not leave him alone with my Shi Tzu. He love the attention. It is all about him. But otherwise he is a good dog.

Oscar

Shih Tzu Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 8 yrs 7 mos
Middletown, NY
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
First he's sour, then he's sweet. Much like a sour patch kid, Oscar is the definition of a rascal. The 13-pound, 7-year-old pup was surrendered to Pets Alive because he has one issue: He's a biter! While someone attempted to adopt Oscar recently, he just wasn't having it. So alas, this boy is back at the shelter, and we're working on training to determine his triggers. Given his selective attitude, Oscar is best suited for a dog-savvy home without children.
