About Dylan

Dylan is a charming 4-year-old Shih Tzu who currently weighs around 17-18 lbs. He thrives in a calm indoor environment, happily enjoying soft beds and toys. While he's heartworm negative and fully vaccinated, his potty training is still a work in progress. With some guidance, he can learn to pee outside, but he’s already mastered the dog door for his other business. Dylan gets along well with other dogs and loves receiving belly rubs, often turning into a gentle, floppy bundle of joy. On rare occasions, he can show off his playful side with a burst of zoomies. He’s looking for a loving home that can help him continue his training. Dylan is not available for adoption until the event on 10/3/2026. Make sure to get pre-approval to attend! Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
