Story
Meet Gizmo Giblet! 6 years old and 14lbs. This adorable pup prefers to be the only child so a home with human kids will not be considered for his adoption. Gizmo is the dog for you if you’re looking for a boy that wants to be beside you, no matter what! You understand that he communicates by growling along with nasty comments, and you don’t mind that he will bark and scratch at doors to get your attention when you leave him. He will also help keep friends and family away by barking, growling and snapping at them when they get close to you. He is a happy and playful boy that loves squeak toys and will insist on sleeping beside you and may pee in your bed Interested in becoming a forever home for Gizmo Giblets? Fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we don't go any further without an application. Find more adoptable pets, news and information on Instagram @friendswithfourpaws or our Facebook page Friends with Four Paws . We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them and you. Please do not submit an application if you are not serious about adopting Gizmo Giblets. We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and Gizmo Giblets the perfect forever home, and appreciate you working with us. For immediate consideration, please attach your application to the initial inquiry to help us expedite the process. Our adoption fee is $525. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses. All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where he/she is kept for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested, we make arrangements for transport. If a dog is already in foster care in NYC/NJ, an adopter will be put in touch with the foster home AFTER an application is being processed. Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!

Story
Meet Riley Roberta! This 8 lb, 4 month old pup is in search of her forever home. She is a complete sweetheart - her mom was Shih Tzu and we believe her dad was likely a terrier mix. She is proud to report she is doing well with her housebreaking - using both the doggy door and the potty pad! She is ready for a home to love her but importantly do all the training, and take on the work a puppy brings! Interested in becoming this pup’s forever home? For immediate consideration, please fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we DO NOT go any further without an application. If there are multiple dogs that you are interested in, please fill out an application for each dog. This does not include bonded pairs, one application will be fine. We have different adoption coordinators working with different dogs, and your application may be missed if you only apply once.

Shih Tzu Maltese

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
What to say about sweet Rufus? Plenty! Let’s start with his adorable underbite that melts hearts at first glance. Rufus is incredibly dog-friendly and will even wrestle with other dogs if they’re up for the challenge. For a 9-year-old, he’s got a surprising amount of energy for playtime, yet he can also be the sleepy, sweet grandpa type. Rufus loves playing fetch with toys and will proudly bring them back to your feet, tail wagging the entire time. He can often be seen throwing his toys in the air and rubbing his face on the floor, always bringing a smile to your face. On walks, he strides confidently ahead, rain or shine, with his tail wagging happily behind him. Rufus enjoys sitting beside people for gentle head rubs, but be patient—sometimes the world feels a bit overwhelming for him. A good treat and some head scritches quickly soothe his nerves. Rufus can be a little grumpy during grooming, especially when it comes to touching his sensitive paws, but it's just another quirky part of his charm. Whoever adopts this lovable, grumpy goblin will be rewarded with an adorable ball of fluff.

Shih Tzu Poodle (Miniature)

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Paris is 6 and a half years, and the sweetest boy ever, he loves playing his ball and chewing on his bone, is fairly active and just loves people and the sound of kids. He is a picky eater and we think that’s what causes his tear stains, doctors visit and allergy tests later they say it is most likely cosmetic like most white dogs get genetically. Paris hardly barks, is very shy around other dogs but is active around humans. I gave him the name because he is such a lover and very well behaved, but I know he deserves much more stability and love than I can give him.

Story
Teddy is very friendly 3.5 year old Shih Tzu. He loves everyone. He only eats dry dog food. Other human foods like steak will give him diarrhea. He can be a bit anxious. He is not the best at riding in cars. He cannot go on long car rides. We just moved to a brand new house. He had a couple accidents. We are busy with 2 young kids. Teddy loves to play with other dogs. He used to go to a very nice doggy day care. And is well socialized. We got him as a baby. And he’s been with us for 3.5 years. Born May 7, 2021. We took very good care of him. He would go to work with my husband. He went to doggy daycare, regular spa grooming… We just cannot take care of him with our busy schedule anymore. Looking for a loving home for Teddy.

Story
Bentley is a 4 year old Shih Tzu/maltese with a TON of personality! I originally got Bentley for my partner in a previous relationship. Once the relationship ended Bentleys personality changed drastically and unfortunately I cannot care for him anymore. He is a loving dog but has a bit of an issue with being territorial and can be aggressive at times. I also live in an apartment and I’m gone pretty frequently and leaving him alone a lot. He needs a family that can care for him fully and give him the time and attention he deserves. I am looking for a family that would care for Bentley. Someone who is experienced with dogs. If they are a trainer that would be a bonus. Looking for someone who is home frequently to keep him company. Hoping I can find him a new loving home.
