About Abas

Abas is a sweet 5-year-old Shih Tzu mix and a true cozy expert, ready to find his forever home. His favorite activities revolve around his blankets; he loves to dig and fluff them until they’re just right before nestling in for a good nap. Once settled, he enjoys being close to people, perfect for long TV marathons or simply relaxing together. Abas is friendly with dogs of all shapes and sizes and enjoys the company of humans of all ages. However, he thrives best in a calm household where he can take his time to relax. We haven't assessed his feelings towards cats, so slow, proper introductions would be ideal. While he is okay with resting in a kennel, he prefers a soft, comfy bed for his blanket-fluffing activities. As he transitions to a new environment, he may just need a gentle refresher on his potty routine and leash manners. Abas is neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. Could this gentle blanket-fluffing companion be the perfect addition to your family?
