Adopt a Shih Tzu in Minnesota

Shih Tzus are affectionate, playful, and outgoing dogs bred for companionship. They're common in rescue, especially from puppy mills or situations where their grooming needs became overwhelming. A rescued Shih Tzu will reward you with endless cuddles.

Minnesota's rescue dog community is active in the Twin Cities, Duluth, and Rochester. Many Minnesota rescues partner with regional transport networks to bring in dogs from higher-need states. A rescued Minnesota dog often comes from one of these well-organized programs.
