If you are looking for a new family member, consider rescue. You will never feel more love than from a rescue. |
Shih Tzu / Beagle / Mixed : : Male : : Adult : : Medium
PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.
Meet Ollie! Ollie and several others came to rescue from a terrible neglect/hoarding case. There were roughly 20 dogs living in a tiny pen, with nothing but mud and feces. They had nowhere to step, sit, or lie down except in their own feces. These babies are all pretty scared and timid. But after only one night in a foster home, Ollie is already showing affection and coming out of his shell. Ollie is about 15-20 lbs and is just over a year old. He is a shih tzu/beagle mix. Ollie has been neutered and brought up to date on shots, and is heartworm negative. He would do best in an adult only home, or with older kids. He will not do well in a loud, very active home. He is working on house training, but having lived his whole life in a pen outdoors, he had no experience with indoor living so its a work in progress. We believe with all our hearts that this little guy has the potential to be a loving family member, he will just need a patient adopter who understands his fears and will be willing to give him the time he needs to learn to trust them. A fenced yard is a must, due to his fears and the possibility of being a flight risk during the adjustment period. Ollie is good with other dogs and cats.
