Peanut (AG26-17) - Shih Tzu Dog for Adoption in Peyton, Colorado

Meet Peanut - A Little Explorer with a Whole Lot of Happy

Peanut is a male Shih Tzu who weighs just 8 pounds, but this little guy has plenty of personality packed into that tiny body. He's happy, energetic, curious, and always ready to see what the world has waiting for him.

Peanut has just a smidge of shyness, but his curiosity usually wins out. He's constantly on the move, investigating his surroundings and making sure no interesting sight, sound, or smell goes unexplored. There's simply too much to discover to sit still for long!

He also loves other dogs and socializes easily with his canine friends. Peanut would be perfectly happy sharing his home with a dog buddy, but he could also thrive as the only dog with a family ready to give him plenty of attention, activity, and opportunities to explore.

Peanut is looking for a family that will embrace his energetic little spirit and introduce him to all the wonderful experiences he's only beginning to discover. Walks, playtime, adventures, and plenty of love sound just about perfect to him.

This cheerful little guy is ready to trade kennel life for family life and spend his days exploring alongside the people lucky enough to call him theirs.

Skills such as house training, leash walking, and handling may require continued practice. Progress will vary by individual dog. Homes with older children are often a good fit, depending on temperament. To learn more about NMDR and our adoption process, please visit our website.
