Kevin Says · Mar 11, 2012

I am looking for a small dog like Shih Tzu or Maltese. Thanks in advance.

I would start at the humane society.

Check the breeders at Petfinder.com, although I have come across backyard mills there. JUST DON'T BUY ONE FROM A PET SHOP!!!

Yep, humane society/animal shelter usually have nice dogs. And they come with all the papers and shots.
