Shih Tzu and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Richmond, California

Poor, sweet Petunia was a terrific mess of mats and foxtails, she needed help - badly! Fortunately she
landed at the Porterville Shelter and they took care of her!
Now at Milo and gearing up to find the loving home and spoiling she deserves for the rest of her life!
See her other photos to see the horrible neglect she suffered. And currently weighing under 13 pounds, too small to be left outside which clearly she was....But Petunia is resilient and will bounce back and learn to trust and soak up the love and comforts she craves.

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.
