Shih Tzu and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Lucky!

This two-year-old, 11-pound shih tzu will have you grinning from ear to ear from the moment you meet him.

Lucky is a great balance of relaxed and playful. He's a very smart boy who knows how to sit and lay down and takes his treats very gently. He's a laid back kind of guy until you bust out those crinkle toys and then he's ready to party! Lucky enjoys his time outside but never misses a chance to hang with people. He will require regular grooming which should be taken into consideration when adopting.

Based on our evaluation, we feel Lucky would do best in an active home with adults or family with kids ages five and up. He may have the potential to live with other animals and we are happy to do a meet and greet with your family fur baby.

If you think he could be the pup for you, head to greatlakesdogrescue.com today and submit your application for our lovable Lucky!

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The Shih Tzu is a small, affectionate dog breed known for its distinctive appearance, with a luxurious double coat, a short muzzle, and large round eyes.

With their low shedding coat and adorable face, Shih Tzus are popular among dog lovers worldwide.
