Shih Tzus & Furbabies is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of small purebred and mixed breed dogs. We believe that, somewhere, there is a home for every dog, but that we have a responsibility to place our dogs into homes that will best meet their needs, both physically and emotionally. We look for people with patient and loving hearts, and an understanding of the furbaby mind. We are also committed to educating the public about the importance of ethical, responsible, and humane pet guardianship.
Teddy is a special 2-3 year old, 32 lb. Poodle - Bichon Frise’ mix boy. He has a beautiful soft white coat and bright blue eyes. Teddy came to us from a hoarder, where he lived in a cage. As a result, his muscle mass is underdeveloped. This lack of strength means Teddy cannot jump up onto furniture like a sofa or chair at this time. In addition, Teddy is deaf and has limited vision. He can’t be “called” and sometimes requires a lift from his human to get him to where he needs to be, and to understand what’s being asked of him. Teddy is on a light diet, with a goal weight of 28 lbs. This sweet boy is learning to live out of the cage, to navigate his environment, and is getting stronger every day. Teddy is a very friendly dog who loves to cuddle. He is a playful puppy, tossing around his stuffed toys, and playing tug! Teddy will be fine with calm older dogs and gentle children. He loves being outside, going for short walks, and would do best with a fenced yard. Teddy is in Florida. #7262

Read MoreBailey and CiCi are a bonded pair of female Shih Tzu - Schnauzer mixes. When their human died, a family member put them on a porch, badly neglected. Bailey is 10-11 yrs old, has one eye and is tan and white. CiCi, is 8-9 yrs old, and a soft grey. The girls are housetrained, and love attention. CiCi watches over Bailey, and worries if she can't see her. These precious girls need a home where they can once again be beloved pets. They'd do best as only pets, in an all adult home, where they can get all the attention. They are overweight, but otherwise healthy. They are fostering in Jacksonville, FL. These pictures are not great, we will add more as soon as we receive them from their foster mom. #7260 & #7261
