Story
Say hello to Godardd!He is an 8 year old Shih Tzu mix who weighs about 22 pounds. Godardd is a social butterfly who loves everyone that he meets! He is a snuggly and affectionate pup that loves to be right by your side. If he`s not by your side then he`s with his best buddy Hoggle. They both arrived in our care as strays that were likely abandoned and sticking together to feel safe. These two boys are the best of friends and would love a home where they can live out the rest of their days together! They both show potential to live with dogs, cats, and kids, if they`re the right fit. If Hoggle and Godardd look like the perfect pair for you, stop in today to meet them before it`s too late!

Story
Meet Soli, a sweet and loving young dog with a gentle spirit and a heart full of affection. Found as a stray and nursed back to health by a kind soul, Soli is now looking for a forever family. She does walk a little funny (we do not know why as x-rays are inconclusive), and she’s not yet housetrained—something she may continue to struggle with. Soli will thrive in a patient, understanding home that can provide the consistent care and love she needs for the long haul.

Story
Rowdy is fostered in Mentor OH and his adoption fee/donation is 150 Rowdy Hi My name is Rowdy, and I am a senior boy (Approx 10-12 yrs). I am a cute and adorable shih-tzu that ended up in this rescue because my former owner couldn’t take care of me. I am a really good boy, I love playing ball, and playing with my toys, and I get along with other dogs. I am not really a lap dog like many other Shih-Tzu's, I just like to wander around, get petted, and do my own thing for the most part. I am very easy going, and low maintenance, but I do need regular grooming's, ear cleanings, and prescription dog food to keep my kidneys healthy. When I first came to rescue, I had not been checked out by a vet for a very long time. My kidney values were abnormal, I had horrible teeth and mouth infections, I was in rough shape. Since then, I have had a dental cleaning with several extractions, meds for my kidneys and prescription food to maintain my renal health. I am now ready for my forever retirement home, somewhere that I can live out my life and be the happy & healthy dog that I deserve to be! I am housetrained, and I don’t shed, so I really don’t need much, just someone to love and care for me. I am neutered, up to date on vaccines, and heartworm negative. My current medications are Galliprant, a pro-biotic supplement and Royal Canin kibble (Renal Support). If you would like to adopt Rowdy or would like more information on him, please fill out an adoption application We do not have a shelter, all rescues are in foster homes - Dogs are not shown without first being approved to adopt.
