Story
This 10-year-old, 10-pound Shipoo may have limited vision and hearing, but he makes up for it with endless love and sweetness. He’s a gentle soul who just wants to be near his person and feel safe. Because he can’t see or hear well, walks on a leash aren’t really his thing — he prefers to just stand close or explore at his own pace. He would do best with someone who is home most of the time. Leo becomes anxious if he can’t find you and may bark until you return, so he wouldn’t do well in an apartment or with long periods alone. He recently had a dental cleaning and full bloodwork, which looked great, and he’s all ready for his forever home. If you’re looking for a devoted little companion to share your days with, Leo will repay you with unconditional love and loyalty. All he needs is a safe space, a kind heart, and someone to remind him he’s finally home Adoption is $150 which includes his dental, neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention. To fill out an application for this animal or a general application click HERE.All animals are up to date on age appropriate shots, microchipped and fixed. To meet one of our animals we require an approved application. You can fill one out at https://tobyscrittercoverescue.org/adoptionapp/ November 6, 2025, 5:22 pm

Story
Unlike Dr Suess’ grumpy Grinch, this Grinch is the exact opposite! He loves everything about Christmas season! From the frequent visitors to the delicious food to the atmosphere and music! Temperament wise, Grinch is as sweet as can be. He loves to be around people. He loves attention and affection. He loves pets from his people. He gets excited when people approach him. He barks for attention if he feels ignored. Anyone who tries to treat him like a senior will face his wrath! Grinch is as spunky and energetic as a year-old puppy. He loves his playtime and his outside time. The prospect of going on walks sends him in a tippy tap frenzy. He wiggles his body into a happy rhythm. He works himself up, sometimes he coughs :/ He pulls with hurried paces initially but then eases into a nice stroll. Grinch walks with his head held up. He is a very proud walker :D He loves to stop and watch the neighbors and trucks. He quietly surveys them. They won’t even know they are being watched :D Grinch likes to leave his calling cards along his walks. Off leash, Grinch stays close to you. He likes to keep you in his view. If you are the needy type and want a pup that loves to be held, Grinch is your guy. Leave a couple of cozy blankets for him if you are going to binge a few shows. He likes to burrow in the blankets. Grinch is about 7 years old, 10lb Shih Tzu. He is looking for a family who would involve him in family activities. Daily walks and cuddles are his thing. Grinch is wonderful with dogs. A laid-back furry sibling is welcome. He does not like unruly pups in his face 😊
