Tennessee - Shih Tzu Dog for Adoption in New York, New York

Tennessee is a 2-year-old Shih Tzu mix who weighs around 10 lbs and likes to take his time getting to know new people. He appreciates slow introductions and a little space to decompress, but once he feels comfortable, he's happy to curl up in your lap and show you his sweeter, softer side.

He's house-trained, crate-trained, and very quiet. Tennessee can be gentle and mellow, though he may come across as a little aloof at first while he figures out his surroundings and the people in them. We're still getting to know his full personality, but he's already showing us that patience is the way to his heart.
