In the shelter’s words
01-21-2026 THIS GUY IS STILL LOOKING FOR A HOME, HE IS A WONDERFUL AND WELL-BEHAVED DOG. THANK YOU. This stunning, smiling little guy is ROCK. Maybe I should not say little as he weighs a whopping 25 pounds, which is kind of big for a Shih Tzu but he is that. The vet says he needs to lose at least 20. He is 4 years old. ROCK was an owner surrender to a small Texas shelter from the son of an 83 year old man who has dementia. We are hoping to place ROCK in a home that he'll be happy and keep that glowing smile! He is in a foster home with other dogs as we do not have a shelter. I do not have any cats so I do not know how he would do with them. ROCK likes to hang around you but he is independent and quietly follows you around the house. He is not a barker unless he wants something. I do not have a doggy door, I just let the dogs out of my backdoor every few hours for a potty break and that is the word I use "Potty." Even though he has not missed a meal, he does enjoy breakfast and dinner time! He walks well on a leash, rides in the car without getting sick and would make a good companion for anyone. If you are interested in adopting ROCK, please submit an application on the website below. Thank you. www.roxysk9rescue.org
