RJ - Shih Tzu and Poodle Dog for Adoption in Providence, Rhode Island

Meet RJ!
We're not sure if RJ stands Ridiculously Judicious or Real Jackpot, but we are sure that he's super duper cute and an absolute love. RJ is a senior boy and tends to be pretty chill and calm, but he's up for a slow walk around the neighborhood. RJ came in with another dog who he does well with but is not bonded to - they can be adopted together or separately. RJ has no experience with cats, but would likely do well after a slow and thoughtful introduction to ensure the safety and comfort of all animals involved. He is a little shy at times so would benefit from a teens+ home.
