INTRODUCING MR. FINLEY….. This 4-5 year old, 18 lb dapper dude is a mix of a few breeds – possibly Shih Tzu, Lhasa Apso, Schnauzer, and Poodle (his mother was probably a hussy)! Whatever he is, it’s 100% adorable.

We don’t know about Finley’s past, but it’s clear he hasn’t had an easy time. Initially, he was a bit skittish and shy, he would hide and we had to “nudge” him to out — but his new foster dad said…no more! He has already transformed into a sweet and affectionate companion. . They have told us that he has really settled in and is getting along famously with the other dogs!

Finley would do best in a calm and reassuring environment, hopefully with a yard and another playful, happy dog, maybe even a little bigger than he is. Training will help him bond and adjust, especially in the potty department. He is very smart and once his fear subsides, we’re sure he will be an easy train. He’s great with other dogs and kids over 8 yrs, and once he feels safe and loved, he’ll be a loyal and loving companion.

The key element to success with Finley will be patience and love. He is not a big barker and will be a wonderful companion once he is comfortable and realizes he is safe and loved. If you’re looking for a furry friend who just needs a little extra TLC, patience and love, Finley could be the perfect match for you! Are you ready to open your heart and home to this sweet boy?
