About Mickey Meet me on

Meet Mickey, a charming and fluffy 1-year-old Shih Tzu looking for a forever home. Weighing in at about 16 pounds, this sweet boy has experienced many ups and downs in his short life. Once found as a stray by a kind gentleman who took him in, Mickey is now seeking a loving family after his rescuer could no longer care for him. When Mickey joined us, it was evident that he hadn’t had much exposure to everyday experiences. He had never visited a veterinarian or a groomer, and we are working to ensure he gets the care he deserves to live a happy, healthy life. Despite the challenges he has faced, Mickey remains full of potential and ready to embrace his next chapter. He needs a patient adopter who can provide love, stability, and the guidance he needs to flourish. Mickey gets along well with other dogs, which could be a great bonus for potential adopters looking to add to their furry family. With enough love and care, Mickey can become the wonderful companion we know he can be. If you think you could provide Mickey with the stable and loving home he long deserves, please reach out to us to start the process. You can meet him at the Fluffy Dog Meet and Greet on Saturday, October 10th, at What's in the Bowl Pet Shop in Delafield. Don't miss the chance to give this lovable boy a second chance.
