Patch - Shih Tzu Dog for Adoption in Fairfield, Connecticut

Hi there, I'm Patch! A handsome black-and-white Shih Tzu with soft, wavy hair. I am about 2 years old, weigh 14 lbs, and I was found in the street with another little dog in San Antonio, Texas. A good samaritan picked us both up, put us in her yard, we both escaped, and then I came back. We couldn't find my little friend or my family, so I went to a foster home for 4 Little Paws Rescue. These days I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, up to date on preventatives, and have all my veterinary records, so I'm ready to find a new forever family!

I am a very sweet and social little guy, friendly with everyone, and my foster mom calls me the zoomie king! Yep, I love to run zoomies, play with my doggie friends, and play with dog toys. I am affectionate and loving and like being near you, but I'm not clingy. I am also well-behaved, don't guard my things, don't chew the furniture, and I am housebroken. I'm allowed to roam freely in my foster home since I am such a good boy, and I would say that I am easy-peasy... easy to care for and easy to love, but will need regular grooming to keep me looking this handsome! I will go for a walk on a leash, accompany you on a car ride, and sleep in bed with you at night, and be the happiest little guy in town! Inquire about me today!
