Big Red

Meet Big Red, a sensitive and tender-hearted boy who is huge in heart despite his small size. Initially timid, he has blossomed with kindness and patience, showing his true playful self. He absolutely adores other dogs, especially small ones, thriving in their company and becoming his happiest, wiggliest self. When you speak sweetly to him, his tail starts wagging, and his whole back end wiggles with pure joy, a truly heart-melting sight.

As a Shih Tzu, Big Red possesses a gentle spirit and will require professional grooming every 4-6 weeks to maintain his comfort and appearance. He is crate trained and making excellent progress with housetraining when on a consistent schedule. He loves to putter around a securely fenced backyard, sniffing and exploring every corner, making a safe outdoor space important for his curious adventures.

Big Red is seeking a patient, gentle family in a quieter home environment, willing to let him build confidence at his own pace. A home with another small, confident canine companion (or two!) is a must, as other dogs help him feel safe and bring out his best. With a little love and understanding, watching Big Red gain confidence is truly magical, and he promises to be an incredibly devoted and rewarding addition to a very lucky family.
