Profile: Curley is an adorable little 10-year-old neutered male Shih Tzu, which is a laid-back breed. Don't let his age fool you – he is ready and willing to follow you around the house and lounge in the backyard under the sun. He would love a companion to hang out with him and share a good treat with him once in a while.
Curley is a little hard of hearing, but that doesn't hold him back. Come down and see the little guy and give him a wonderful retirement home.
