Story
Jessie is a mostly sweet boy who, once he overcomes his initial distrust of people, bonds quickly with his humans. He loves to sit with his people and just chill, but he also enjoys playing with other dogs. Jessie has an old back injury which has resulted in some weakness in his hind legs. Even though he walks a little funny, he does not let that stop him in the least! He can hold his own during playtime with other dogs. Jessie is not fond of the groomer, but is just fine unless the groomer is working on his face or feet. We believe that he was abused in the past, but is thriving in a home where he is loved.     Applications can be filled out at www.piedmontanimalrescue.com/adopt!  Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet does NOT send us Applications.

Dexter is a loving and sweet little boy. He loves to play fetch and squeak his toys before pulling all the fluff out. He is sometimes a little skittish and easily frightened. Definitely likes inside more than outside but is trained to scratch at the back door to go potty.

Story
Mighty Handsome Milo is our happy offering in the Shih Tzu loving dog world. It is rare to have such a young and healthy male to offer.  He is only 3-4 years old and 14 pounds and came to us as a very raggedy boy that you could not even see his eyes under all the hair.  He was a neglected surrender and we were so happy to take him in and transform his life.  He is the sweetest thing ever and he loves everyone he meets.  Dogs, cats, people, it doesn't matter two legged or four. He just wants to be everyone's friend.  Mighty Handsome Milo has been around kids around 8 yrs old but not toddlers and so we will not consider families with young young children for everyone’s best interest.  He loves to play with other dogs his own size so a playmate would be a plus if you have another small dog. He would like to have a fenced in yard as he likes to roam around the yard and play with his foster roommates.   A constant leash walk might be confining and ultimately no fun!!!! He walks on a leash really well and is crate trained and doing good on his house training. Milo didn't know about steps until he came here and now goes up and down 4 steps to the yard like a pro.  He is adorable and loves to cuddle and give you all the kisses you want in life.  Toys are a favorite pastime to wile away the hours.  Don’t miss this rare offering in a young Shih Tzu who has a good 12+ years to add to your lifetime of loving a dog. If you are interested then please write to us about Critter Cavalry Rescue,  ccrnewengland@gmail.com PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comAugust 19, 2024, 2:03 pm

Story
These adorable shihtzu mixes are looking for their home! The pups are active and playful. They get along well with dogs, cats and kids. They came to us after they were surrendered to the shelter due to the owner not prepared to handle skin issues that had developed. It had caused some discomfort and hair loss. However, following treatment, their hair is growing back and they are doing great. They weigh between 5-7 lbs; and we don’t expect them to get much bigger than 25 lbs. Given their young age, they are not yet housebroken so they will need an adopter prepared to take time to aid with this. They will need someone able to take them outside frequently during this process. The adoption fee is $450 which includes a microchip and spay/neuter surgery once old enough, as well as age appropriate vaccinations through adoption. If you are interested in adopting, please submit an adoption application online through the link at the bottom of https://www.julietshouse.org/online-adoption-applications *All in our program are assumed to be mixed breed as none have had genetic testing. They are designated based on characteristics observed and noted.
