Description

Step right up and meet CHURRO!  No carnival is complete without a sweet treat, and this little guy is as sweet as they come!  At just 3 months old and 11 pounds, Churro is a Shih Tzu mix puppy who is looking for the forever family he deserves. We expect him to stay under 20 pounds when fully grown, making him the perfect pint-sized companion. Churro’s story isn’t all cotton candy and carnival lights. He and his siblings came to rescue covered in skin infections and scabs, leading us to suspect they may have been discarded simply because they weren’t “perfect” enough for someone with a breeder mentality. Thankfully, those days are behind him, and now he’s ready for a life filled with love, comfort, and plenty of belly rubs. Playful puppy personality Dog-friendly Kid-friendly (small-breed experience preferred due to his size) Working hard on house training and crate training Loves toys, cuddles, and adventures Has not been tested with cats Will require lifelong grooming to keep him looking his best Churro may have started life on the wrong side of the midway, but he’s ready for his happily-ever-after. Could your family be the grand prize he’s been waiting for?  Apply today before this sweet little carnival attraction steals someone else’s heart!  Churro is current with vaccines and fostered in Harrisburg, PA. Apply at https://www.pack9rescue.org/applications/ New Oxford PA 17350; LIC # 9736 We are PA Caring for K-9's, an all-breed dog rescue that is solely run by volunteers. Most of our dogs are rescued from high kill shelters in the South. If the dog is posted, they are still available! Once arriving, these dogs enter foster homes, as we do not have a shelter. We cannot adopt out dogs to a home with dogs that are not fixed or up to date on shots. If interested in adopting, please submit an application online at www.pack9rescue.org. Our adoption fee for altered dogs is $350 and goes directly to saving the lives of more dogs.  Our adoption fee for unaltered puppies will be $400 which includes a refundable $50 deposit upon receipt of spay/neuter certificate. Learn more about adopting from us or volunteering for us at www.pack9rescue.org or check us out on Facebook for more information and a complete list of dogs available for adoption.           https://www.facebook.com/PaCaringForK9s/ See upcoming events below where PA Caring for K9’s will be with some of our adoptable dogs!
