About Jeb

Meet Jeb! This delightful 5-year-old Shih Tzu mix is a bundle of joy at just 16 pounds. Jeb has a personality that lights up any room, and when he's excited, he stands on his back legs and twirls around as if he’s auditioning for a dance show! He is fully housebroken and crate trained, making him an easy companion. Jeb loves car rides and is very dog friendly, which means he’d happily share his space with a furry sibling or be your one and only best buddy. While he hasn’t met any cats yet, they remain a mystery to him. Jeb is kid-friendly, but due to his excited jumping, he’d do best in a home with children aged 8 and up. His energy level is low to medium, so while a fenced yard is a bonus, it’s not a strict requirement. This lovable guy has a penchant for treats, belly rubs, and making his humans smile. Smart and eager to please, Jeb knows his name and already understands how to sit and stay. He’s simply looking for a family to love him back and appreciate his adorable dance performances. Could you be the family he’s been waiting for? Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
