About Huckleberry

Meet Huckleberry, a spirited young Shih Tzu mix on a mission to find his forever home. Having recently undergone cardiac surgery to repair his heart, he’s bouncing back with an adventurous spirit and ready for new friends. This lively five-month-old pup, weighing in at around 13 pounds, is a little extrovert who enjoys the company of dogs, cats, and children alike. Huckleberry's backstory is as heroic as his name suggests. After losing one eye in a battle for survival, he embodies resilience and joy in each day. He's already mostly potty trained and does well in his crate, although he occasionally protests when it's time to settle down. Huckleberry loves to party and thrives in an environment with other pets, though he's also quite content to curl up on a lap after a day full of adventures. This little Ewok’s heart is full of love to give, and he’s waiting for a family ready to explore life together. If you’re seeking a playful companion who will bring joy into your home, Huckleberry is the one for you. Let's make it official; apply to adopt him today!
