My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

  Ryan Phillip is an adorable and amazingly resilient little boy who came from horrible neglect. His joy and gratitude after being rescued were shared by us all, as we watched him roll around for joy in his new, soft bed, all clean, groomed and well fed. This joy continues each day as he warmly embraces all the love and care he is receiving. Ryan Phillip is a friendly, gentle, sweet boy, who enjoys cuddling in a cozy lap, affection, exploring in the yard, and just hanging out with people.
 
          Ryan Phillip is a Shih Tzu mix and about 7-8 pounds. His age is unknown, but he is a senior, at least 12 years old. His left eye is blind, but he does have vision in the right eye (he has been evaluated by an opthomologist), and he gets around just fine. Ryan Phillip certainly deserves his angel, who will give him the best possible senior years ahead. If he is tugging at your heart, please consider adopting him and put in an application today. Please watch the video at the end of the photos to see more of Ryan Phillip. He is a sweetheart!

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

The first step in adopting from Shih Tzu Rescue is to fill out an application on our website at shihtzurescue.org

2.

Visit the Facility and Find a Pet

Once your application has been approved we will schedule an appointment for you to visit our shelter and dogs and take home with you.

Additional adoption info

We have an adoption contract that must be completed and approved. We require vet and personal references as well home checks. Our normal response time is approximately 7 to 10 working days. Our Adoption Committee works very hard to place our dogs in environments where they will be most likely to succeed. Please understand that we have more applications than we do dogs and that if you do not hear from us within that timeframe, we currently do not have a dog who we feel would match your needs.

Our fee includes neuter or spay, all shots, and snap test for heartworm/erlichia/lyme. We take care of whatever their medical needs might be before they are adopted. WE ADOPT TO ALL OF FLORIDA AS WELL AS OTHER STATES. WE DO NOT SHIP
