About Sheldon The Big Bang

Sheldon The Big Bang is the tiniest of the boys from the Big Bang Theory litter, but what he lacks in size, he absolutely makes up for in character. This quirky, fun-loving Shih Tzu mix keeps everyone entertained with his sideways hopping and silly antics. He's got a slightly longer, extra-soft coat, so he's just as snuggly as they come. Sheldon will stay small as an adult and is seeking a home that can appreciate his unique personality and keep up with plenty of laughter, play, and cuddling time. He's only about 8 weeks old, so don't expect him to be house trained yet—he's still in the early puppy stage and will need consistency, patience, and gentle structure while he grows up and learns his way. Sheldon is well socialized, enjoys being around people, and already shows signs of being feline- and dog-friendly. He gets along with children too, making him a nice fit for a caring family ready to invest in a puppy’s early learning phase. Sheldon has had his first vaccinations, is microchipped, dewormed, treated for parasites, and started on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. He will be neutered before adoption is finalized. This puppy is fostered in woodland, CA through a foster-based rescue—no physical shelter, just dedicated volunteers helping the right family find their match.
