Shih-Tzu Rescue is a not-for-profit small dog rescue group located in Collierville, TN. Our organization is made up of volunteers who openly and lovingly open there homes to foster small dogs who need our help until they find a forever family to adopt them. These precious homeless little babies come from a variety of situations. We take in lost or abandoned dogs, dogs from abusive homes, puppy mill dogs, dogs from high kill shelters and those who there owner can no longer care for them. We rescue animals from local and neighboring state animal shelters before they are euthanized. Our goal is to give these special dogs a good and healthy second chance and “Fresh Start in Life.”

Adopting A Friend
Our Adoption Program is designed to ensure the placement of our Foster Babies into permanent, loving, responsible forever homes. We make every effort to match our fur babies with the adopter, so as not to expose the animal to any further trauma, stress, neglect, or rejection. We strive to see that our fur babies receive the stability and unconditional love they deserve for the rest of their lives. Adopting a new family member should ivolve a well-thought out and deliberate process. Adopting a pet is not an impulse decision. Please understand that we do not want our Fur Kids to ever be homeless again. Our Adoption Donation is $300.00, unless noted otherwise. Adoption fees vary depending on the age of the pet and what the circumstances are coming to us, you should always ask when you call or email about the pet. Fenced yards are required and this is non-negotiable.
Our Adoption Procedures are strict and our screening process is very thorough. Potential applicants must complete an adoption application, agree to a home visit and interview, and sign an adoption contract. We hold the right to disapprove any adoption. All pets are altered, heartworm tested, current on vaccinations and checked by a vet prior to being placed with their forever family. All adoption fees go toward the rescue and care of other animals in need.
