Harry / Stewie

Stewie and Harry are a bonded senior duo looking for their forever home together. At 13 years old, these Rat Terrier/Shih Tzu mixes still have plenty of energy and love for their humans! Stewie, around 15 pounds, is the more people-focused of the two, sometimes smiling, begging for attention, or even jumping up when he's overly excited to see his favorite human. Harry, about 23 pounds, is more independent but just as loving in his own way, often expressing himself with little grunts and snores.<br/><br/>Both boys are house-trained and will let you know when it's time to go out, whether by heading to the door or sitting up on their back legs as if to beg. They do not like being crated, but that's okay because they can be trusted free roaming. Due to some separation anxiety, they are much happier when someone is home with them and will need a home without shared walls (no apartments/townhomes).<br/><br/>They adore their daily walks and have made great progress on leash -- now happily going out 4-6 times a day for short strolls of 10-20 minutes. Walks are their favorite activity, keeping them young at heart and giving Harry the chance to show off his love for squirrels, ducks, and rabbits. Inside, however, they are mostly couch potatoes, with Stewie often curling up close to his person and Harry preferring his own spot to snooze.<br/><br/>Stewie and Harry are good with other dogs and have done well around cats. They enjoy kids but, being seniors, would do best with older children who can respect their space.<br/><br/>Though they may be opposites in many ways, they couldn't love each other more. If you're looking for two sweet, silly, and loyal companions to share your life and daily walks with, Harry and Stewie are ready for you!<br/><br/><br/><br/>If you are interested in these dogs, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/<br/><br/><br/>The adoption fee is $450.
