Shih Tzu Dogs Available for Adoption

Coco is a 12-year-old sweetheart who proves that age is just a number and is ready to settle into a calm, loving forever home. She currently weighs 18lbs and is still losing weight.

Coco has a gentle, quiet nature. She’s not the type to demand constant attention, but she truly enjoys being near her people, content to relax beside you and simply share your space. That said, don’t let her age fool you. Coco still has some pep in her step! She loves going for walks and will even break into the occasional happy little sprint. She enjoys car rides and going on adventures.

Coco thrives with other dogs and will require a home with at least one friendly, social small canine companion. Coming from a puppy mill background, she finds comfort and confidence in other dogs, and they help her feel safe and secure. Because of this, a home without another dog wouldn’t be the right fit for her.

She is wonderful with cats and gentle with children, making her a great addition to a calm, respectful household. Coco is potty pad trained but will also go outside when given the opportunity. A physically fenced yard is a must for her.

Coco is currently on a Hill’s c/d prescription diet and will need to remain on this for life to support her health. She will also require regular urine testing to ensure her health.

Coco is spayed, microchipped, just had a dental, is up to date on vaccines, current on heartworm preventative, and current on flea/tick preventative. If Coco sounds like a match for you, please fill out an adoption application using the URL below:
