Story

✨ Meet Sir Tashi - the sweetest little gentleman you'll ever know! ✨Sir Tashi is a 15-lb Shih Tzu, approximately 3 years old, with a heart as soft as his cuddles. He's playful, affectionate, and truly an all-around good boy with so much love to give.✔️ Doing great with potty training following other dogs through dog door. ✔️ Crate trained (sleeps in crate at night)✔️ Walks beautifully on leash✔️ Loves toys, playtime, and his foster siblings✔️ World-class cuddle bugSir Tashi also has a silly, mischievous side &#194&#151 he's a sock, shoe, and 'anything small enough to grab' thief 😄. He doesn't chew things up, but he will happily steal items to parade around or play with them. It's more funny than destructive, but it does mean keeping small items picked up.Sir Tashi is still learning and will need continued training. Like many Shih Tzus, he can be a bit stubborn, especially when it comes to house manners. He is making progress, but this breed does best with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Short, fun training sessions work best for basic commands, and adopters should expect a learning curve &#194&#151 particularly with housebreaking.Sir Tashi came into rescue alongside his Shih Tzu brother, Mister Tenzi (check k9ppr.org for his profile). While they are no longer fostered together and Sir Tashi will absolutely thrive independently, adopters interested in both brothers will receive a package adoption discount.💔 Important note: These boys were previously kept outdoors and neglected. Because of that, they will need a patient, understanding home committed to continuing basic manners and reinforcing potty habits as they settle into a new environment.Sir Tashi (or the two of them together!) would make a wonderful addition to a loving, committed family.Could that family be yours?⸻🐾 Adoption Requirements &#194&#149 Another dog required &#194&#149 Gentle children 10+ &#194&#149 Temperature controlled home- (Shih Tzus are prone to overheating) &#194&#149 Short walks only &#194&#149 Professional grooming every 6 weeks (not a low-maintenance breed)A detailed adoption application is required.Only applications that clearly meet the criteria and provide meaningful information will be considered. At K9 Paw Print Rescue, we believe every dog is a precious soul deserving of a home that truly fits them.👉 Apply at: www.k9ppr.orgJanuary 12, 2026, 12:43 am

Story

Meet Tenzi ✨Tenzi is simply gorgeous. While a fella shouldn't be judged on looks alone, it must be said&#194&#151he's quite the looker. With his soft, fluffy coat, beautiful markings, big dark eyes, and his tiny Van Dyke-style beard, he's undeniably dashing.Tenzi is a Shih Tzu, estimated to be 2-3 years old and about 14 lbs. He is gentle, playful, and affectionate, with a big love for toys&#194&#151especially balls. Blankets are his favorite treasures and will always be gathered into his bed. He enjoys both playtime and quiet cuddles on the couch.Sadly, Tenzi spent most of his life neglected and kept outdoors, which is especially inappropriate for this breed. Because of his past, he will need a patient, understanding home willing to help him continue learning basic manners and fully adjust to life as an indoor, pampered companion such a potty training which is going to take some time. ⸻🐾 Ideal Home & Requirements &#194&#149 Another dog required - he thrives with canine companionship &#194&#149 Gentle children ages 10+ &#194&#149 Indoor-only home with climate control (breed is prone to overheating) &#194&#149 Short walks only; not a high-endurance dog &#194&#149 Commitment to continued potty training & basic manners &#194&#149 Professional grooming every 6 weeks (regular brushing or kept clipped short)⸻🐶 Sibling NoteTenzi does have a Shih Tzu brother. While they are not being fostered together and it is not required that they be adopted as a pair, we would consider a slight adoption fee discount for an approved adopter interested in giving this duo a home together.⸻Tenzi's grooming was previously neglected, and his coat and ears required significant care when he arrived. This breed is not low maintenance, and adopters must be prepared to meet his ongoing grooming needs.With patience, structure, and love, Tenzi will make a devoted and affectionate companion who truly blossoms in the right home. 💛⸻📩 Adoption InfoA detailed adoption application is required. Only applications that clearly meet the criteria listed will be considered. Applications that do not reflect an understanding of Tenzi's needs or fail to share meaningful information about the applicant will not be considered.We believe every dog is a precious soul deserving of a home that truly fits them.👉 Apply at: www.k9ppr.orgJanuary 12, 2026, 12:43 am

Story

Meet Don & Julio! 🐾🐾 Don and Julio came to us together from the Merced shelter and are hoping to find a home, whether together or seperately. These two are easygoing, low-energy companions who enjoy a calm, relaxed lifestyle and being close to their people. They are family friendly, affectionate, and motivated by love and attention. Don and Julio do well with gentle corrections and can be left alone for up to 4–6 hours, making them a great fit for a home with a steady routine. They would do best in a cat-free home, where they can continue to settle in and enjoy the comfort of being together. If you’re looking for a sweet, mellow duo to share your life with, Don and Julio could be the perfect match. 💙

Story

Meet Stevey 🐾 Stevey is a gentle, low-key pup who’s looking for a patient and understanding home where he can settle in at his own pace. He can be shy at first and needs time to adjust, but once he feels comfortable, his sweet personality begins to shine through. With his low energy level, Stevey is happiest in a calm environment with relaxed walks and plenty of quiet companionship. He does well with other dogs and would do best in a home with dog-savvy children ages 10 and up who can respect his boundaries. Stevey is affection motivated and responds well to love, praise, and gentle guidance. He’s also good with corrections, making ongoing training a positive experience. Stevey is not good with cats, so a cat-free home is needed. With patience, consistency, and kindness, Stevey will blossom into a loyal, loving companion who forms a deep bond with his people. 💙

Meet Peanut 🥜🐾 Peanut is looking for a calm, understanding home where he can feel safe and supported. He prefers a quieter lifestyle with predictable routines and patient people. Peanut can be shy and needs mindful, gentle approaches, especially while he’s getting to know new people. He will need continued socialization with both people and dogs, and does best with slow, controlled dog introductions. Peanut is dog selective, barrier reactive, and leash reactive, so he’s seeking a single-dog home with an adopter who is experienced or willing to work with positive, confidence-building training. Because of his sensitivities, a home with dog-savvy children ages 10 and up would be the best fit. Peanut is not good with cats, so a cat-free home is required. With patience, structure, and plenty of reassurance, Peanut has the potential to blossom into a loyal, deeply bonded companion for the right person who understands his needs and is ready to go at his pace. 🤍
