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 Gizzy Fairfield

Gizzy's adoption donation is $400 and she is being fostered in the Central Ohio area.  She has been spayed, microchipped, received her rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention as well as flea prevention.  Gizzy has also had a dental cleaning. Gizzy came into rescue through no fault of her own when her owner could no longer care for her dogs. She loves to find a cozy spot on a blanket or a pillow on the couch. At night, she likes to be tucked up next to her person. Gizzy is all about her people and loves to sleep right next to you in bed and is very curious about where you are going and what you are doing. She is doing well with other dogs but can get a little bossy and make her point known so a home where she is the only dog would be ok but not the only option. We believe that she would love to be the center of attention for someone who works from home, retired or home quite a lot. Gizzy is pee pad trained but has made great progress on learning to potty outside if kept on a schedule. She has not been tested around cats or kids but she shows no sign of aggression at all. 

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.

Look for other dogs for adoption!
