Shih Tzu Dogs Available for Adoption in Rochester, Minnesota

Meet Buffy - a sweet, gentle soul looking for a soft place to land after losing the only family she had ever known when her owners had to move into assisted living. She was a beloved constant companion and is clearly missing having someone to love on full-time.

Buffy is housebroken and will politely let you know when she needs to go out by heading to the door and giving a little bark or whine. She walks nicely on a leash, loves car rides, and is happiest curled up beside her people - preferably in bed, because crates are definitely not her thing. She's a wonderful lap dog who soaks up attention and companionship.

She is wonderful with other dogs, gentle with children, and has done great with her foster's great-grandchildren. Buffy does have a few quirks: storms and fireworks can be scary for her, and she's not a fan of bicycles or squirrels. But overall, she's an easygoing, loving companion who simply wants to be near her humans.

If you're looking for a loyal best friend with a kind heart and calm presence, Buffy may be your perfect match.
