You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Did I catch your eye? Learn more about me by reading my profile below; I just might be your new best friend! Apply on our website ( https://www.healingheartsrescue.org/adopt ) to set up a private meeting or check below for my adoption event schedule. Age: Approximately 5 years old Weight: 14 lbs Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Unknown Kid friendly: Unknown Potty trained: Yes Crate trained: Yes Hi, I'm Alex and I'm a little jerk, In fact my foster mom calls me worse than that. That's how I know she's crazy about me, and she is! I'm too smart for my own good, but with my history, I didn't have a choice. I'm darn good at surviving for a little guy. They're pretty sure I've had my jaw broken, but that aint no biggie. I have a big attitude and I let you pet me only when I feel like being pet. I say who! I say when! I know exactly what you want, even what you're thinking, but it all depends on my mood. Sometimes I'll tell you to go pound sand and sometimes I'll roll over for a belly scratch. Controlling my situation is what I'm about. I have learned that I can generally trust most people, but a guy still has to set some boundaries! I'm a great listener and I can read people's body language well, that doesn't mean I'll do what you want though, because as I said, I'm a little jerk. I am however highly food motivated so I can be coaxed to do things and even outsmarted now and then. I'll go in a crate for a treat and suffer through it if you're not home. But, if you're home, I'm screaming at you to let me out! None of this put me in at night garbage, I like snoozing in a big comfy bed and I'll even give you permission to love me up when I'm there. What can I say? I'm a dude. I like other dogs, but little dogs can get on my nerves. They can be too needy and prissy. I'm a big dog at heart and I like hanging out with big dogs. They are my people and I like doing big dog things. I am potty trained unless you tick me off, then you never know what I'll do, so let's not go there. I don't do leashes, though my foster mom keeps telling me we're going to have to learn if I want to go out and walk with the big dog. I need a fence to keep me in though, otherwise I'll hit the streets and get into some trouble. My foster mom is also trying to teach me commands... as if? Like I'm going to perform on command! Good luck lady! She says there's a mushy marshmallow love bug inside me, but I don't know what that nutty lady is talking about. I do feel all gooey inside when she talks to me and pets me though. Anyway, if you're interested in a Shih Tzu with a big attitude who will definitely keep life interesting, you got my digits dawg!

Most of our adoptable dogs were previously stray dogs with little history, we can’t be 100% sure of a dog’s breed mix, and unless there is a specific date of birth listed, we can’t be 100% sure of a dog’s age. Additionally, our assessments of a dog's interactions with other dogs, cats, or children are based on OUR experiences. Your experience may differ.
