Chewy

Hi, my name is Chewy and I am a senior Shih Tzu, almost 9 years old, 13 lbs and I have a sweet disposition and a little underbite. I am friendly and get along great with people and other dogs, and although I am not really playful with my doggy friends, I enjoy their company. I am more of a lap dog, loving pets and rubs, and when not in your lap I’ll follow you everywhere or curl up for a nap on a chair or doggy bed. I’m well-behaved and rarely bark and if you don't notice me waiting by the door to go out and do my business, I am an expert using a potty pad. I was a stray dog in San Antonio in 2017 and wound up at the dog pound. I was adopted locally and lived a nice life until last month when my owner surrendered me back to the dog pound. I couldn't believe it, especially after I was a good and faithful boy for so many years, but I guess I should be grateful they didn't just put me out on the street or throw me out of a truck like many older dogs around here. The good news is, that I hear many wonderful families on the East Coast would be happy to have a sweet little dog like me, so I can't wait to meet them and get my life started again.
