Story
I'm a shi-chi, born on January 11, 2025. I'm a happy, friendly, bouncy little guy that dances around his food bowl when he eats. I get along well with other dogs and cats. Because I'm so little, big dogs scare me a little and sometimes play too rough. I am working on going potty outside and am very eager to please. I haven't made any messes in my crate! I love falling asleep on a warm lap. Bugsy's prior home was not able to care for him so I'm giving him a safe place to stay while searching for his forever home. He's been an absolute sweetheart, always wants to sleep on my lap. He's already learned that when I say Go Potty when we're outside that it means to squat and pee. Very smart little guy. He's had his first set of shots.

Story
Butch the Shih Tzu puppy is looking to find his happily ever after! He was surrendered due to retained testicles. He is very scared but sweet and already starting to adjust in his foster home. His foster mom is working daily to get him comfortable and make him feel safe. We know that he wasn't handled much before he got here, that was clear upon intake at the vets office. He would do well in most homes as he's small and doesn't require a ton of exercise but we do suggest a home with another dog as they're his comfort and safe space. If you're interested in him please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!

Story
Hi there my name's Alfie, at least it is now. The nice people at the rescue named me that. I didn't have one before. I was a real wreck when I arrived. I was coated in feces, urine and vomit. I'm surprised they even picked me up and helped me out but here I am! I went to the vets and got checked out. He said I'm good to go. I got shots and some yucky medicine but they said I needed that to stay healthy. I got taken to a foster home after that and got a much needed bath! Boy do I feel waaaayyyy better now! I'm looking pretty cute now and I'm starting to get comfortable. Boy this place is sure a lot nicer than that cold dirty kennel I've been in. I really like this couch thing I found and that's really been my main focus other than running and playing with the other dogs. I think I'd prefer a home with other dogs but it's okay if I'm the only one. If you're interested in me please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!

Story
Well hi! I'm a Shih Tzu/Bichon mix puppy and I'm looking for my forever home. They named me Astro. Let me tell you my life so far hasn't been great. I just got to this rescue place and I was in rough shape when I came in. I was heavily soiled in feces, urine and vomit. I was terrified and didn't know what to do. Everything scares me but I must admit, I'm really liking this home thing. They took me to the vets and I got shots and yucky medicine. Then they took me to a home. I got a bath and then believe it or not I got to run around! There's other dogs to play with and toys and treats and plenty of food and water. I could get used to this. I think I would do well in most homes, this one has other dogs and cats. I would prefer another dogs as it makes me more comfortable but what I need list is someone to really love me! If you're interested in me please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!

Story
This sweety pie is Binky. He's a Shih Tzu puppy. Now poor little Binky here is very scared at the moment. We can tell he hasn't been handled much and because of this he doesn't know what to think about us. His foster mom is working to get him feeling comfortable and safe. He's coming around already! He was surrendered due to having retained testicles. He would most likely do best in a home with another dog so he has someone to make him feel safe and show him the ropes of being a pet. He just needs love and patience to be your bestest friend! If you're interested in him please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!
