Story

Meet Sully! This adorable little fluffball was found running as a stray in an area where we’ve rescued two other Shih Tzu mixes who look just like him! His finder reached out for help, and thankfully, we had a foster ready to bring him safely into rescue. Sully is currently living with Johanna, her four dogs, and two cats. He may be the smallest in the pack, but he’s not shy about speaking up when another dog gets too far into his personal space. He’s playful, social, and just figuring out his boundaries. He’s also cat-friendly and kid-tested (8 years old). Sully has no issues being handled or picked up. He’s crate-trained, housetrained, has solid leash skills, and even knows “sit,” so he was clearly someone’s pet at some point. He LOVES his humans and is a total lap dog—his favorite place is curled up getting pets from his foster mom. Johanna describes Sully as a fun, upbeat pup who gets excited for any adventure. He rides great in the car and is ready to be your little sidekick. Sully is getting groomed today and will be heading to the DC metro area on 12/6. Apply today to welcome him home! BREED ESTIMATE: Shih Tzu Mix GENDER: Male APPROXIMATE WEIGHT: 11.5 lbs APPROXIMATE AGE: ~ 2 years old COAT TYPE: fluffy, long coat needs regular grooming ADOPTION FEE: $425 OTHER INFO: utd on shots/neutered/microchipped LOCATION: York, SC - COMING TO DC METRO on 12/6 FOR MORE INFO OR TO ADOPT: Please go to https://adopt.worthydog.org and complete the application. You can also help save dogs like this one by becoming a foster, providing a rescue dog with a temporary home and giving them the love and care they need until they are permanently adopted. Every person who fosters is directly responsible for saving the life of a dog, because we can only save as many dogs as we have foster families available to welcome them into their homes. If you think you might be interested in becoming a foster and want to learn more, please go to https://foster.worthydog.org and fill out an application. Worthy Dog Rescue is an all-volunteer, foster-based rescue that primarily adopts to families in the DC Metro area. December 17, 2025, 5:49 pm

Story

Meet Hip Hop – The Sweetest Senior Shih Tzu Around! Hip Hop is a Shih Tzu weighing about 10 lbs, and she’s ready to find her forever family! This little lady has come a long way—from being found roaming the streets and ending up in a crowded shelter, to now living her best life in a loving foster home. When she first arrived, Hip Hop was matted and had some hair loss from a flea allergy, but with a little TLC (and some cozy sweaters), she’s blossomed into the adorable, happy pup she was always meant to be. Hip Hop is the definition of an easygoing companion. She loves lounging around the house and soaking up the comforts of home, but she also enjoys short backyard adventures with her dog friends. She’s been around dogs of all shapes and sizes—from a calm 5-year-old Jack Russell mix to an energetic 8-month-old Great Pyrenees mix—and she gets along with everyone. She’s even polite with cats! Her true love, though, is people. Hip Hop adores being near her humans and will happily follow her chosen person from room to room, just to be part of the action. She’s wonderfully respectful—never underfoot or demanding attention—and she’s especially sweet with kids. In her foster home, she enjoys spending time with her 4- and 10-year-old human foster siblings, often curling up at their feet or patiently waiting for someone to lift her onto the couch for a snuggle. Hip Hop has impeccable manners, is completely potty trained, and is as polite as they come. She’s the perfect companion for anyone looking to share their days with a gentle, loving senior who appreciates the finer things in life—lazy Sunday mornings, quiet companionship, and unconditional love. If you’re looking for a loyal little friend to share your home and heart, come meet Hip Hop. We promise you’ll fall in love, just like we have. Some medical things to note about her due to her senior age: Has possible early kidney disease based on her SDMA Has mildly elevated liver enzymes May require a kidney-friendly diet long-term Needs annual labs (or twice per year if you prefer proactive care) Is otherwise comfortable, stable, and ready for a loving home Day: December 6th at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM, an approved adopter must be present to adopt. Some pups may stick around until 11:00 AM for the public event—check our Facebook page closer to the date to see if this pup will be attending the extra fun! ##2573718##

Story

Gertie Shihtzu mix Female Black, White, and Grey 8/10 years old 9 lbs Meet Gertie! Gertie is a gentle, loving senior pup who’s looking for a peaceful home to enjoy her golden years. Though her eyesight and hearing are limited, she gets around well and enjoys naps, sunshine, and sniffing around the yard. She’s as quiet as can be, no barking, just the occasional sneeze, and loves spending time near her person, especially when it’s mealtime! Gertie needs soft food since she has only a few teeth left, she has full dental with extractions, as well as daily eye drops and supplements to keep her comfortable. She isn’t fully house-trained but does well with regular outdoor breaks or a diaper indoors. She’s made wonderful progress in foster care and has so much love to give. If you have a calm home and a soft spot for senior dogs, she will be your sweetest little companion. Please Note: **No children under 10!** If you are interested in adopting GERTIE, please go to our website www.somersetcottagepoodlerescue.org to see our adoption process and download the adoption application GERTIE's adoption donation is $495

Charlie

Male

Springfield, VA

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Sweet Charlie is a special furbaby who is shy. Charlie loves people. He will carefully approach his human, give them a kiss on the hand, and welcome a pet on his head. But he prefers to be the one to initiate the contact. If approached or picked up when he’s not expecting it, he may hurry away. Charlie is also playful and really enjoys burying toys under a blanket or pillow. He can entertain himself for quite a while with this activity! Another behavior that can be managed by a patient adopter is Charlie’s habit of getting into cabinets or trash cans or onto tables/countertops in search of food. Charlie LOVES to eat and is super smart when it comes to finding food so keeping food stored out of his reach or blocking access to the kitchen with dog/baby gates helps reduce that behavior. Charlie is housetrained and used to taking regular outside breaks in a fenced backyard. Having access to a fenced yard is important for Charlie because he can be nervous on walks and easily spooked by sounds like a car engine. For this reason, CHR is requiring that his adopter have a secure fenced yard. If there are other dogs in the home, you’ll be happy to know that Charlie gets along with most dogs but he will bark at any dog who tries to climb into bed next to him when he is resting. Charlie has made amazing progress while he’s been with his foster mom and is learning to be more relaxed, but we know from experience that it will take more time to address his fearfulness. A patient adopter who doesn’t force Charlie into situations that make him uncomfortable will help Charlie continue to improve and gain more confidence. application: https://fs8.formsite.com/Caringhearts/form1/index March 28, 2025, 7:58 pm

Story

Buttercup and her sister and brother, Bubbles and Brodie were surrendered to a kill shelter because their owners just had too many and couldn’t find homes on their own. Their mom is a long-haired Chihuahua and their daddy is a Shih Tzu and they were born on February 2nd this year so they are 8 months old. Buttercup has been spayed, is up-to-date on vaccines and heartworm negative. She’s also microchipped. She weighs just under 7 pounds and is probably full grown now. Buttercup is great at the Vet and The Groomer and loves riding in the car. She needs a little practice on the leash and she’s making great progress on house training. Buttercup is a little bossy but plays great with her brother and sister. we feel like she would be fine with other dogs after getting to know them but would always want to be the boss. She would be fine with older children, and we are not sure about cats but the bossy part would be the same at first. If you would like to give this super affectionate love bug her forever home, please email omlc7@hotmail.com or dogs4mylife@gmail.com. If you do not see a response, please check your spam folder.
