Shih Tzu Dogs Available for Adoption in Durham, North Carolina

Meet Chewy

Chewy (yes, like Chewbacca!) is an adorable 2-3 year old, 14-pound Shih Tzu with a gentle, loving personality and the cutest little face to match.
He's the total package: house trained, dog-friendly, and loves people. Chewy already knows "sit" and is learning fetch (he's getting pretty good at it!), and he's eager to keep building new skills with his future family.

Chewy is a calm, easygoing companion who rarely barks and prefers a cozy lifestyle! Think naps on the couch, snuggled up close, or walks where he can say hello to everyone he meets. He's incredibly cuddly and thrives on being near his people.

He's currently working on crate training, so he would do best with a family who can continue building his confidence and help him feel secure when left alone. (It's his only flaw, let's cut him a break!)

If you're looking for a sweet, low-key best friend who will happily be your shadow and your snuggle buddy, Chewy might just be your perfect match
