Sage (1 of the 19 rescued)

Sage is a 2 yr old white and gray shihtzu who was part of a large puppy mill bust where everyone was living outside in deplorable conditions and so heavily matted that we could not tell what sex any of the dogs were. Sage is now fully vetted and groomed and he is handsome! Sage is now crate and leash trained and doing well on housebreaking. He would do best with an adult home as he’s apprehensive at first and takes a little bit to trust people. But once he does he comes out of his shell and jumps to greet you. He’s good with other pets but does not engage with them to play. Please apply to adopt Sage at www.peanutsplacerescue.org click application scroll down it’ll appear.

These dogs will all need shaved completely. 20 yrs of rescue and even I’ve never seen dogs this bad. I don’t even know how a groomer can get through these mats, some solid blocks and a few we were unable to determine sexes. We got 19. Amazing that all of these dogs are only about a year to 2 yrs old at the most Most were easy to handle. A couple gave us a little growl but no attempts to bite. Be prepared, these dogs are disgusting. They smell they have fleas and ticks some can barely move from the mats on their legs. They have zero vetting and won’t for a while. No vet could even give a shot until shaved down. We can start setting vet appts after Jan 1. All are shihtzus or Lhasas. I’m sure this puppy mill will make the news. About 80 dogs in deplorable living conditions. And people were buying puppies off these people for Christmas!!!
