Lynx - Shih Tzu and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Fredericksburg, Virginia

Lynx joined us as an owner surrender through no fault of his own. His family simply reached a point where they could no longer care for him, so now this sweet boy is looking for a new family to call his own.

Lynx is a loving and very submissive guy who can enjoy a little activity and fun, but is also perfectly happy to settle down and relax with his people.

He has been doing well on a leash and seems to be doing really well in the home, including making great progress with his house training.

He's the kind of guy who can enjoy an adventure with you and then happily kick back when it's time to relax.

Lynx didn't ask for this new chapter, but he's ready to make the best of it-and we're hoping his next family will be his forever family.

Sweet. Loving. Submissive. Ready for his next adventure.

Could Lynx be the missing piece to your family?

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.
