Romeo is a cookies and cream dream! At 12 years old and a chunky 22lbs, this shih tzu maltese mix has a heart of platinum! Romeo is sweeter than an oreo, affectionate, mellow, and fantastic with dogs and cats! He loves his fur foster siblings! Dont be fooled by his age, Romeo loves to go on walks! He still has a lot of love, life, and energy! Romeo easily does stairs, enjoys the outdoors ,and doing any activities that include his human. This boy is as active as you want him to be.

Romeo is an avid lover of all things pets and belly rubs- and snuggles! Since he loves human contact, he is very happy dressing up in sweaters, cuddling with humans and dogs, and easily groomed. In addition to loving all humans and animals, Romeo also loves food.

This lover, true to his name, will stay by your side all day and night, if you will have him!

We rescued Romeo from the city shelter where he was brought in as a stray. During his time as a stray he was attacked by a dog and suffered a bite wound. Since then, he made a complete recovery and ready for his forever home!
