Ohio Fuzzy Pawz Shih Tzu Rescue, Inc.

We rescue, rehabilitate and re-home Shih Tzu and other toy breed dogs from a variety of situations. We pull from a number of shelters in and around Ohio; we take in breeder releases from commercial breeding facilities and owner surrenders as space permits. We do this so that hopefully we can reduce the number of Shih Tzu and other breeds euthanized in shelters due to space and place all of our dogs in loving permanent homes.

Meet Dodger-OS

Dodger's adoption donation is $500 and he is being fostered in Central Ohio. He’s been fully vetted, including neuter, microchip, all core vaccinations (rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, Bordetella), heartworm negative and on prevention, flea prevention, and even a dental cleaning—he's sparkling from the inside out! Meet Dodger – Your New Best Friend! Dodger is a bright-eyed, affectionate little guy who's ready to steal your heart and maybe even your spot on the couch. This sweet pup came to rescue after his former owner could no longer care for him, and while his journey has had a few twists and turns, Dodger has never lost his zest for life—or his love for cuddles! Dodger thrives on companionship. He adores being near his person and gives the sweetest kisses you’ll ever receive. He also enjoys playtime with other dogs and would love a playful pup friend around his size and energy level to share adventures—and maybe a toy or two. That said, he’s also totally fine taking some quiet time to himself to recharge. He’s making great progress with potty training when kept on a schedule, and he's learning that meals don’t have to be rushed—a lesson he’s taking to heart with the help of a loving foster home. Dodger is leash and crate trained, does well in the car, and is the perfect combo of smart, silly, and oh-so-snuggly. He’s eager to please, loves toys, and brings a goofy charm to everything he does. If you're looking for a loyal little shadow who will love you with his whole heart, make you laugh daily, and be the best sidekick you could imagine—Dodger is your guy. He’s ready to start his next chapter. Could it be with you?

Adoption Process
Applicant submits an online (or paper) application. We thoroughly check references including personal, vet, and groomer--landlord if applicable. Once references check out, we then conduct a home visit to ensure home and family would best suit the dog. We do not adopt on a first come, first served basis--we go with the home that is the best fit for the dog.
