Gizmo 14’s FAQs

What is Shih Tzu Rescue Adoption & Educ. Safehouse’s adoption process?

We only adopt locally, which we consider up to an hour and a half or so drive from our location (land line area codes 708, 872, 630/331, 847/224, 312/773, 815/779; PLEASE NOTE: Locations within the 815/779 area codes may be beyond our distance limitation.). Exceptions may be considered for senior or special needs dogs. We do not adopt out-of-state – no exception. We are closely monitoring the Coronavirus Pandemic; it is amazing how challenging life has become in such a very short time. The Safehouse is not open to the public. You can meet our available dogs, receive and submit our adoption application ONLY during our designated Petsmart meet & greet adoption events. However, PetSmart has temporarily suspended these in-store events until further notice. The Safehouse is not open to the public. All adoptions are currently handled on an appointment only basis. If you wish to adopt, send an email to the shelter straes@rcn.com identifying the specific dog you are interested in adopting and we will send you the necessary paperwork and instructions. Available dogs with descriptions and photos can be found on the Petfinder.com website. As we continue to monitor this rapidly changing situation, we will most likely be making additional changes to our adoption processes as needed.
