Very sweet, loving male Shih Tzu mix Approximate DOB 8/1/2024 – About 15 lbs This boy was scheduled for euthanasia at a local shelter after he was not reclaimed or adopted. He got listed and we had until 9 am the following day to get him out of there. Some amazing volunteers with the help of an amazing rescuer and our contact in that area were able to get to him by 8 am that morning to spring him and get him on the road to us. He came in with his brother Rocky and initially we had them together however it has become very apparent that they just can't get along. Both dogs were severely matted and dirty when the shelter got them so they did shave off the bigger mats on both thank goodness as from their original photos it looks like they had almost like matted blankets dragging behind them and covering them up. We are so grateful to the shelters who take a little time from their day to make the dogs in their care a little more comfortable. Anyway, Ollie is just a sweet, loving baby who is slowly learning what it means to be a house dog. When they got here neither understood what it meant to be talked to but with lots of treats, repetition, and love they are learning what it means when people talk to them. These were more than likely outdoor dogs so definitely should be watched and crated when inside their new home so they learn the rules. But they are learning fast and have made so much progress. Both boys have been professionally groomed (huge thanks to Day of the Dog Grooming in Los Lunas) and have now had their medical completed and are looking for their happily ever afters. We will be updating these posts the longer they are with us. Neutered, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations - Adoption fee $300 We do welcome out-of-state adoptions.
