Anthony is a 7-month-old Shih Tzu weighing 8.8 pounds. This sweet young pup is still learning how to be a puppy and can be a little shy at first. With patience and a loving home, he will warm up and begin to show his affectionate.
As a puppy, the right training and socialization are essential to help him grow into a confident and well-adjusted companion. Anthony will do best with a family committed to guiding him through this important stage of development and giving him the time and encouragement he needs to thrive.
To ensure the best possible match, a meet and greet at our shelter is required for all potential adopters. We want to make sure Anthony finds the right home - and that your home is the perfect place for him to blossom.

Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of these dogs adapt quite quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. To learn more about mill dogs and start the adoption process, visit our website!
