About Kermit

Kermit is a 6-month-old golden Shih Tzu mix, full of energy and ready to spread some joy. With his playful spirit, he’s looking for a family to share adventures and cuddle time. Friendly and gentle, he makes an ideal companion for anyone who wants a small friend to brighten their days. His coat grows continuously, so Kermit will require professional grooming every 6-8 weeks to keep him looking sharp. The adoption fee is $400, which covers his health exam, being neutered, all vaccinations allowed by his age (including rabies), a pre-adoption grooming session, and a microchip with a lifetime membership. He’ll also leave with a new collar or harness, a leash, and a starter bag of quality kibble. This fee helps us rescue more animals in need. If you think Kermit could be the right fit for your home, don’t hesitate to apply! Let’s give him a loving place to call home.
