Story
History: Lotus is a beautiful girl who needed a second chance at a good life. She quickly wriggled her way into our hearts with how sweet and loving she is and she would make a great addition to a lucky home of her own soon! A Note from the Foster: Lotus is a gentle and kind 7-year-old Shih Tzu who was subjected to unethical breeding for her whole life. Well, no more. She is now being bathed in love and compassion. Despite lack of care, she is sweet, loves people and great with other dogs. She is an A+ snuggler and an easier keeper. She is crate-trained and working hard on house-training. This will take some time knowing she was confined to a crate for so long. If you have love to give, and patience to see her through needed training, you have found your girl. She is the sweetest pup in town.

Story
History: Elroy is a handsome fella who arrived to rescue recently and immediately warmed our hearts. He is officially ready to start his journey in finding his forever home and hopes to find them soon! A Note from the Foster: Hi my name is Elroy! I was originally a breeder release and I am about 6 months old. I am a shih Tzu poodle mix and probably the cutest thing you'll ever see. Here's what you need to know about me: I am a little timid and shy but I absolutely adore my foster mom. When everyone else is gone. I love to play wrestle, get into mischief and give lots of snuggles and kisses. I'm the seriously the silliest little guy you'll ever meet. When I came to my foster mom's house it took me a day or so to get warmed up to her. I slept in my kennel and could come and go as I please next to the busy section of the house but I really liked my safe place. Now. I still go in my kennel when my mom's gone but I am in it less and less when I get to choose. I really love to be out and about but kind of on my own terms. I have a house that has four kids and lots of friends that are visiting and In-N-Out. This makes me nervous sometimes and I like to sit by Mom or go in my safe place when I need to. And when Mom is gone and the rest of the family is in charge of me then they usually will leave the leash on so it's easier to get me to go outside. I don't love the leash and I love being brought outside with a leash but I sure do love a walk on a leash. I'm kind of silly that way. I do really well with potty training and I'm starting to go by the door when I need to go outside. Sometimes I have an accident in the house but usually that's because I'm too busy playing outside to go to the bathroom and then I come in and have to go all of a sudden. I love toys. I love to go for walks and do really good on the leash. I'm looking for a house that would maybe be last people a little bit more calm and I do really well with other dogs of all sizes but when enough is enough I like to go and just snuggle with my mom. I really wish that everyone could see the amazing dog I am when it's just me and my mom and my foster dad, then I'm super silly, really cute snuggle buddy. I have baby Zumiez and Ive got the cutest little snaggle tooth that pops out when I'm mischievous. I don't chew on things that aren't for me even though I'm a puppy and can easily be redirected. Again, I am a little shy and I'm a little timid and it's going to take me time to warm up but giving the space and the right family I will get there. I probably would be the very happiest in a household that is quiet and a super confident resident dog that can show me how to do all the puppy things like sit.

Story
History: Gwenna is a beautiful girl who needed a second chance at a good life. She quickly wriggled her way into our hearts with how sweet and loving she is and she would make a great addition to a lucky home of her own soon! A Note from the Foster: Gwenna is a six-year-old Shih Tzu breeder release who is truly a little bundle of love and happiness. Her tail is in constant motion, and she greets everyone like they’re her very favorite person. If you’re looking for a dog who radiates joy and affection, Gwenna is your girl! She is sweet, gentle, and so happy to be with her people. Gwenna thrives on attention and loves being close, soaking up pets and companionship. She has a cheerful spirit and an endearing enthusiasm for life that will bring a smile to your face every single day. Being a Minnesota girl now, Gwenna has made it clear that cold winter weather is not her favorite — but she’s adapted beautifully by using her indoor piddle pad area and has done very well with it. She’s eager to please and continues to learn what life as a cherished house dog is all about. Gwenna would do wonderfully in a home looking for a loving companion who wants to be part of everyday life. She has so much love to give and is ready to leave her past behind and start her next chapter as someone’s treasured family member. If you’re searching for a sweet, happy little soul with a nonstop wagging tail and a heart full of love, Gwenna is ready to meet you. 🐶💕

Story
History: Ramsey is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon! A Note from the Foster: Ramsey is adjusting well to living with a family. He loves to play with squeaky toys. Lamb chop has become his favorite toy! He is working on potty training and is making great progress! He still wears a belly band when he is not in his kennel. Ramsey gets along well with our resident dog. He is still learning how to play gently because he gets so excited. It is unknown how he would get along with cats. Ramsey gets along well with the teens in our house. It is unknown how he would do with younger children. He is kenneled at night and when we leave the house and does well. He will whine in the middle of the night when he needs to go to the bathroom. Ramsey has really blossomed into a great dog since we have fostered him. He is looking forward to growing even more in his forever home!

History: Emmitt is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon! A Note from the Foster: Meet Emmitt! Emmitt is a fun-loving little guy with a heart full of love to give. He’s happiest playing with any kind of ball and romping around with his two larger foster siblings. Emmitt gets along wonderfully with both small and large dogs and would truly thrive in a home with another canine companion. He’s also a total people pup — you’ll often find him right at your heels, eager to snuggle and shower you with kisses. Emmitt is working hard on his potty training and does best when kept on a consistent schedule. He’s doing great overnight and has very few accidents. Because he’s still young, he’ll also benefit from a basic obedience class (which is required for all dogs under two years old). As a Shih Tzu, Emmitt will need regular grooming every 4–6 weeks to keep his coat fluffy, clean, and soft. Like many young dogs, Emmitt is still learning the ropes of being a house pup. He’ll need a patient family willing to help him continue his potty training and manners — and to keep an eye on their belongings! He has been known to proudly parade off with a bathroom rug or two. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick and a sweet, snuggly companion to come home to, Emmitt is your guy!
