Bichon Frise and Shih Tzu Dogs Available for Adoption in East Greenwich Township, New Jersey

Meet Scout — a shih tzu bichon mix looking for his forever home! He's about a year old and 18 pounds. He is high energy and full of personality, and he craves attention, play, love, and cuddles. He's been through training classes, and is crate trained, great on a leash, and a good running buddy if that's your thing.

Scout is wonderful with kids. He's spent a lot of time around kids of all ages and they are absolutely smitten with him. He does great with other dogs too, especially ones who like to play. We'd love to see him go to a home with a fenced yard. He has a lot of joy to burn.

He was adopted by a wonderful family, but their little girl has severe allergies. Her doctors said he could be the culprit, even though he's certified hypoallergenic breeds with papers. The family was heartbroken. He's back with South Jersey Rescue now, through no fault of his own, and he came back even better than he left.
