Tzu Zoo Rescue
Tzu Zoo Rescue is a Shih Tzu and Lhasa Apso dog rescue in the DFW area of Texas - Saving Lives and Mending Broken Doggy Hearts!
____________________
Tzu Zoo Rescue is a foster-based (no brick and mortar shelter), 501(c)(3) non-profit dog rescue organization run by volunteers, operating in the Dallas - Fort Worth area of Texas.
____________________
Our ultimate mission is to match homeless Shih Tzus and Lhasa Apsos with ideal, loving forever homes and give these homeless animals a second chance at a wonderful new life that they so richly deserve.
By working closely with local animal shelters, we work to prevent the senseless euthanasia of unfortunate stray, abused or abandoned pets which have ended up in the shelters or which have been abandoned.
After providing incoming dogs with immediate medical care, vaccinations, heartworm testing and spay/neuter, the rescued dogs are placed into temporary foster care where they receive the same love and attention as a cherished family pet would. Through temperament evaluation and behavioral modification (if needed), we endeavor to insure that each homeless dog finds a loving family and will be adopted into a forever home.
____________________
Foster home volunteers are the backbone of our organization and without them, these little dogs would suffer. In an effort to save more dogs need, we are searching for additional dedicated foster families. As a foster home, you would care for your foster dog in the same way you already provide for your own pets. We pay for all approved vetting. All you need to do is welcome the doggy into your home and heart, put down an extra bowl at dinner time, and kiss an extra nose good night!
One of our foster home volunteers explains how she answers one of the most common reservations to becoming a foster, "People often tell me they could never foster a dog because they would fall in love and it would be too hard to let go, but I explain to them that it's BECAUSE I love these dogs that I let them go to their new homes. They deserve a family of their own and I can help save far more dogs in need by fostering many throughout the year, as opposed to adopting just one."
If you are interested in saving lives, please fill out our volunteer application at www.tzuzoorescue.com/volunteer.htm . We would love to speak with you further about our many volunteer and foster opportunities.

Stormie is feeling a little overlooked. He is a great little dog who would love to find his forever family.
Stormie is around 6 years old and 15 pounds. We believe he may be a Brussels Griffon/Tzu mix. He would love to have a playmate in his new home, but itβs not a must. Stormie really enjoys long walks and he is a perfect travel companion in the car. π
If Stormie sounds like your kind of guy, please complete the adoption application on our website tzuzoorescue.com. πΎ
All of our dogs are in foster homes in the Dallas Fort Worth area.

Hi, Iβm Everett and I spent my first night with Tzu Zoo in the emergency room after having bloody diarrhea and dehydration. I am feeling much better now and I want to make sure other pets donβt ruin their Thanksgiving by eating the wrong foods. This is a great reminder about what foods might make us sick.
I know. I know. Grandma fed her dog mashed potatoes and gravy for years and nothing ever happened, so whatβs the big deal. I say, why risk it. Tummy issues are no fun! Now, if I can figure out how to get this contraption off my neck, I will be a happy little turkey. π
Have a Happy Thanksgiving! π¦ππ½ π¦ ππ¦
Love,
Everett

Talk about winning the jackpot, little Bucky, on the left, found an awesome forever Mom and Dad and an adorable sister to play with. The kitten is a temporary house guest who will boss the doggies around until he goes to his forever home. So much cuteness in this photo!! Happy life sweet boy! πΎππβ€οΈπ

Kai and Wilbur met in their foster home and immediately were best friends. We secretly hoped they might find a home together, but we were prepared for them to go their separate ways. Then, a wonderful adopter came along who wanted two doggies. We told her about this pair and another one and she was very interested in these two. Wilbur obviously doesnβt like his photo taken. π
We are so happy to share that Wilber and Kai were adopted together. Their new Mommy needed them and they needed her. She will spoil them rotten. Happy life sweet boys! ππππΎπΎ

Charlotte is a 9 year old 9 pound Yorkshire terrier - just look at her beautiful coloring. She gets along great with other dogs, but she would be ok as an only dog as well. She is having her teeth cleaned tomorrow and then she will be ready for her forever home. No small children for Charlotte. π
If you can give this sweet girl her happily ever after, please complete the adoption application on our website tzuzoorescue.com.πΆ

Hi Iβm Chachi. Im looking for my forever home. I just turned 11 years old and weigh 15lbs. Donβt let my age fool you. I like to play with toys and other dogs. I have excellent potty manners and know how to use a doggie door. I walk well on a leash. My foster parents say Iβm cute and a very sweet boy. If you are looking for a companion for your fur baby or for yourself Iβm your guy. I also like laying on the sofa with my foster parents and have lots of love to give. Please fill out an application if I sound like your kind of guy. Iβll be waiting! πΆ
Love Chachi

If you are looking for a super fun fur kid who loves everyone he meets, this is your guy! Wilbur (formerly Woody) is around 7 years old and 12 pounds. He is house trained and gets along great with other dogs. He was surrendered to Tzu Zoo with another female yorkie, but they arenβt bonded at all. Wilbur loves nothing more than playing with any dog that will play with him. He will need a secure yard as he is an excellent jumper and climber. πΆ
If you can give Wilbur a fun loving adventurous home with a furry playmate, please complete the adoption application on our website. tzuzoorescue.com
All of our dogs are in foster homes in the DFW area. πΎ

Kai is looking for a home with a happy playmate. He loves playing with his foster siblings in his foster home. His best buddy is Wilbur who we will be sharing soon. πΎ
Kai was formerly Mini Cooper and adopted in 2017. Sadly, his owner has a serious illness and can no longer care for him. We promised her we would find him the best home. Kai is happy, playful and house trained. He gets along great with other dogs and loves balls and toys. This little guy was very well taken care of and loved and it shows. He can be a barker, but with a little training we think we can get him past that. πΎ
If Kai sounds like your kind of guy, please complete the adoption application on our website tzuzoorescue.com. πΆ

The transformation of Bailey is amazing. This little girl is around 8 years old and 9 pounds. Itβs clear she was very neglected but look at her now. This is what TLC in a foster home will do.
