Meet Lil Man! Lil Man is a sweet, easygoing snugglebug who is just happy to be loved. He came to Reach Rescue from Mississippi and has been thriving in foster care, enjoying all the simple joys of being a beloved companion.  Favorite Activities: - Long walks (the longer, the better!) - Curling up on the sofa (his favorite spot in the house) - Evening snuggles with his foster  He enjoys being included in family life and would be thrilled to join his humans on the sofa or bed for nighttime cuddles. Regular walks or a fenced yard would make him one happy pup!   He gets along well with other dogs and is currently working on his house training. While he does have one bad eye, it doesn't hold him back—he gets around confidently and with great enthusiasm. If you’re looking for a loyal little shadow to fill your home with warmth and love, Lil Man is your guy. Come meet him and see for yourself!

Story
Iggy is a sweet little guy, a Shih Tzu / Toy Poodle Mix, weighing in at about 9 lbs. He is thought to be 5 years old. Iggy is an absolute perfect boy. He loves everyone. And also really enjoys being with dogs his own size; larger dogs may scare him. He is playful and active, loving and cuddly. His favorite activities including playing with toys, fetching and chasing toys for hours, leash walking (harness please!) and hanging out with his people and other small dogs. An ideal family for Iggy is one with plenty of time to spend with him! And, a willingness to buy him plenty of new toys! A moderately active household appears idea for Iggy’s balance of playfulness and calm. Small dog experience is important for an awareness of the challenges facing small dogs (coyotes, hawks, easily escaping). A secure fenced yard (above ground) is also a big advantage. Iggy is fully vetted and in overall good health. However he may be slightly visually impaired but you’d never know it. He has recently visited an ophthalmologist and currently requires eye drops…which he is not too happy about. If you are interested in adding Iggy to your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or call 847-852-0895. NOTE that BAARK is located in the NW Suburbs of Chicago, and adopts only local to our area.

Cocoa Male Shih Tzu Five years old Seventeen pounds House broken Leash trained Gets along with kids, dogs and possibly cats Sleeps in bed with foster and personal dog Needs to be on leash or in a fenced yard Racine Wisconsin Barb - skijour2@hotmail.com Cocoa I’m pleased to introduce you to Cocoa, the perfect gentleman! He’s a five-year-old Shih Tzu, in good health (no diarrhea or vomiting) other than an adorable underbite. Cocoa is a puppy mill release who I’m sure was a house dog before being in the mill. He was house broken as soon as I brought him into my home. He’s not fond of snow or rain but typically will go out just far enough to take care of business. Cocoa is good with other dogs and is quite playful. He enjoys wrestling and tug with my dog. He enjoys walks, is not reactive to other dogs out walking and wants to meet everyone! Cocoa will be neutered on January 15th and will be available for adoption afterwards. You can meet with him before that.
