Meet Hero, a Shih Tzu with a gentle spirit learning to trust the world around him. Weighing in at 12 pounds, he's a shy but curious little guy, eager to explore new sights and smells. As he adjusts, every positive interaction helps him become more comfortable with his surroundings. Hero enjoys the company of other dogs, so he could thrive in a home with a friendly canine companion or be perfectly happy as the only dog, provided he has a patient family that can shower him with love and attention. He thrives in a calm environment and requires time to settle in at his own pace. This young pup's journey is just beginning and with the right family, he’s ready to discover how wonderful life can be. Hero is available for adoption through National Mill Dog Rescue in Peyton, CO.
