Rudy - Shih Tzu Dog for Adoption in Atlanta, Georgia

Poor little Rudy was so matted when he came in to the shelter that he had to be shaved down and his wounds cleaned out. He's healthy and happy now and his coat is growing out beautifully!

Rudy is a little timid at first, but warms up quickly and is a lovebug once he knows you. This 3 year old gentleman is so polite and respectful of others. He weighs just 6-7lbs.

Rudy loves a pile of blankets or a cushy bed to cuddle up in while he watches you work, and he is happy to settle in for binge watching your latest series on Netflix. Rudy can easily fit into an existing pack or be an only dog. He’s working on potty training and is doing great with a schedule.

Rudy is scheduled for his neuter and dental in early October so get your applications in now.

NOTE: GA adoptions within two hours of metro Atlanta only.
