Reginald

The rescue’s notes on Reginald

Reginald is an adorable Shih Tzu with a joyful spirit and a personality that makes everyone fall in love with him. He is one of those dogs who seems genuinely happy wherever life takes him—whether that's a walk around the neighborhood, a car ride, a visit to the vet, or simply meeting new friends. Reginald loves people and greets visitors with enthusiasm, always ready to make a new friend. This sweet boy is playful, easy-going, and full of charm. He loves carrying toys around the house, enjoys going for walks, and is great with other dog-friendly dogs. He remains active, playful, and eager to join in on whatever adventure the day may bring. One of Reginald's favorite things in the world is snuggling. He loves pressing his whole body against his person, tucking his head under your chin, and soaking up all the affection he can get. He's the perfect combination of playful companion and cuddle buddy. Reginald does have a cataract in one eye, and another is beginning to form in the other. While we're not entirely sure how much vision he has in his right eye, it certainly hasn't slowed him down. His veterinarian believes he can still see light and some shapes, and he navigates his world with confidence and enthusiasm. Potential adopters should be aware that his vision may continue to change over time and may wish to discuss future treatment options with their veterinarian. Friendly, affectionate, and endlessly lovable, Reginald has been one of our easiest and favorite fosters. If you're looking for a cheerful companion who loves adventures, toys, other dogs, and snuggling close at the end of the day, Reginald may be the perfect addition to your family. Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter's expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there***
