For Adoption
🍀✨🍀”Jake”🍀✨🍀
9.5 lb Shih Tzu mix male
5 years old

Update 4-14-2025 from his foster family….

Jake, our foster from FairyTails Pet Adoptions, is doing so much better! He is more relaxed, and eager to hang out with the “pack”. You can literally feel that his body is less tense. He still startles to loud or unexpected noise or movement, but he doesn’t immediately run away. He much prefers to be with people than in his crate, and he will let you know.😂. He is still working on potty training, but with a consistent schedule, he is doing pretty good. He is just the sweetest, and it has been amazing to watch him accept love, and to see the playful side of him. He loves hanging out with Jack and Korra, and doesn’t seem bothered by the cat.

Currently on hold to evaluate his heart murmur. He has a cherry eye that will require surgery and a very bad ulcerated eye. We will get the ulcerated eye healed, evaluate his heart and go from there. Scared- was a breeder release. Looking for a foster home.

Breeder release fearful- will need a kind and patient adopter with another dog in the home a secure fence. She has been vetted and has had a full dental.
