Story
Need to rehome this sweetheart. I inherited this cute little girl a few months ago, she was abandoned at a friends house, I took her instead of sending to shelter. Cleaned her up, trimmed her horrible knots out, can now see her sweet eyes. Her name is Loca, She is totally adorable, BUT needs someone who works part time, or is home more often than I am. So I am looking for her new forever home 🩷 she is a shitzhu, about 5 years old, she did not get along with other dogs until I took her in, she and Coco are becoming pals. She is housebroken and listens very well. I have been working on socialization as best I can. She was timid and quiet at first now have her playing with balls, and running around with me. She has become a snuggler too 🙂

Or, how about these Shih Tzus in cities near Columbia, Pennsylvania

Butter is back! (No one’s fault). He is a highly energetic 2 yr, 13 lb shih tzu mix. Butter is very loving and affectionate. He loves being outside and playing with his toys. He is crate trained and working on his house training. He’s good on the leash, he pulls a little cause he’s so excited but that can be easily be addressed. He needs a family that can meet the needs of his activity level. He’s good with kids and other dogs and is cat friendly (no cats in his foster home). If you missed out on Butter now’s your chance to make him a part of your family! He is fostered in Westminster, MD.
