A little about them

Honey is a sweet 6-month-old Shih Tzu weighing about 12 pounds. After arriving as a stray in severe mats that made it difficult for him to see, he received a complete shavedown and is now growing his hair back. With patience and kindness, Honey has learned that he is safe and allowed to be a dog.

Ideal Home

Honey would thrive with a patient, gentle family who will give him time to keep discovering what it means to be loved. He is affectionate, friendly, gentle, curious, playful, and smart. He is reported to do well with dogs and children under 8; compatibility with cats is unknown.

Ongoing Health

Honey was neutered, had a hernia repaired, and had a retained baby tooth removed while under veterinary sedation. He is vaccinated.

Training & Support

Honey uses pee pads and is learning to go outside. He is learning quickly now that he can see the world around him.
