Shih Tzu Dogs Available for Adoption in Ladson, South Carolina

Ohhhhh, Ethyl... What do we say about Ethyl? If you notice a bit of attitude in her photos, it's because she's got a lot of it! We don't know why she's so spicy, but its probably why we were asked to pull her from an overcrowded shelter!

We think she is 3-5 yrs old and seems relatively healthy. Ethyl is a huge personality in an 8 lb. package. She is a fierce guardian of her crate and lets you know it!

Her foster mom works with her daily, and is slowly but surely gaining her trust. Ethyl will need a dog-savvy family with the patience to let her build confidence at her own pace. We are confident she has potential to be a loving, loyal companion given time. Its easy to keep trying because she is so darned cute!

Ethyl is new to rescue, so please check back here or on our FB page for updates as we find out more about her!


WE ONLY ADOPT WITHIN A 2 HOUR RADIUS OF THE TRICOUNTY AREA. ***Exceptions may be made for seniors or hard to place dogs.

If the animal is under the age of 3 years old or has health issues, a vet reference is required, which means you must own a pet or have owned a pet in your name.

ADOPTION FEE of $ covers all vetting including spay/neuter surgery, vaccines, microchip, heartworm test and treatment if needed, and any other medical that may be required while in rescue. Please do not ask us to reduce adoption fees since all fees help us cover medical expenses for all of our animals, some of which can be very expensive. Saving lives is not cheap, so thank you for understanding and helping us save as many as possible.

We only do adoptions on Saturday, and not all animals are able to attend. If you would like to see a specific animal, please let us know via email and we will try to accommodate. However, we cannot guarantee the animal will be at the event without an approved application. Event locations do vary so please check the homepage or our
FB site to find out where we will be this week.

Please email lowcountryanimalrescue@ymail.com for an application.
