Adult-Only home preferred.

Fiyero is an adorable 1- to 2-year-old Shih Tzu weighing about 12 pounds. This sweet little guy came to Tracy’s Paws from deep South Texas after finding himself unwanted and in a very neglectful situation.

When Fiyero arrived, he was so badly matted that he had to be completely shaved down. He was understandably scared and initially a little growly while he figured out that he was finally somewhere safe. He has never nipped anyone, and as he has settled in and learned to trust us, that behavior has continued to fade.

Today, Fiyero lets us pick him up, hold him, and love all over him. He really is a sweet little boy who just needed some time and kindness.

Fiyero gets along with other dogs, and we have had no problems with him here. Because of his history and initial nervousness, we believe his best match would be an adult home or a family with older children who will give him the patience and respect he deserves.
