Shih Tzu Dogs Available for Adoption

Chia is a 2–4-year-old pup who forms deep bonds quickly and becomes completely devoted to his person. A true “velcro dog,” he loves to be close at all times—following you around, snuggling on the couch, or curling up nearby. He’s playful, affectionate, and full of energy, with a love for toys and brisk walks (he may pull at first from excitement). His zoomies are guaranteed to make you smile, and he’s mostly quiet at home aside from alerting you if someone passes by.

Chia knows “sit” and “down,” is very food-motivated, and would benefit from continued training. He can be leash reactive but has the potential to do well with other dogs given slow introductions. He may be a bit cautious with new people at first, especially men, but is never aggressive and warms up with time. Chia did great at both the vet and groomer, prefers not to be crated, and settles quietly when left alone. He would thrive in a patient, active home ready for a loyal and loving companion.
