Lend A Helping Paw Shih Tzu Rescue

Outstanding care for the dogs in their rescue.

This is an extraordinary rescue. They have a genuine, deep love for the animals they rescue. They take in the dogs that no one else wants. The old, the sick, the “challenged”. With love and patience, they get the best care for the animals, and work with them until they are ready for their furever home. They don’t send the dogs off to any old home, but rather the right home for each dog.
Every penny received is spent on the care of the animals. They are transparent with where the dollars go, providing receipts for everything. I am grateful to them for the lives they save. One dog at a time.

I am so very honored and proud to be involved with this rescue 1) their willingness and quick action to help a dog in need regardless of its condition physically, medically or behavioral 2) this rescue has an amazing village of donors, volunteers and advocates for all of these special pups 3) most important the amazing, hard working knowledgeable, compassionate , trust worthy women who started it all, thank you Malini! Such a pleasure to work with and learn from.

This is an amazing organization made up of extraordinary people.

They take in dogs that others would have written off.

In addition, they provide support and essential information for all dog owners. They believe in the value of a good quality of life for all dogs. They helped me through a very difficult few months last year when my senior Shih Tzu was diagnosed with a tumor. We were able to ensure she lived out her life the absolute best she could, without judgment regarding our decision.

I never hesitate to donate because LAPSTR is completely transparent and they appreciate any donation regardless of size.

I look forward to being paired with a pup perfect for my family in the future from this organization.

They are all about the dogs and go to great lengths for their wards. I collaborate with them to secure dogs in urgent situations across the country.

They are first and foremost about the health and well being of the dogs they rescue. There are no corners cut when it comes to getting a dog healthy, mentally and physically.

Lend a helping paw Shih-tzu rescue is the greatest rescue organization that I have ever seen. They take in doggos that are old, sick, injured, angry, and train them and rehabilitate then to have an excellent quality of life. The vetting care is off the charts! How could they improve? More donations for supplies and to help rescue more doggos please

Lend A Helping Paw Shih Tzu Rescue is an absolutely amazing rescue. The president works tirelessly to provide homes for homeless, unwanted, elderly and special needs pups (dogs that other rescues won't even take). Each pup is fostered and receives top-notch vetting/medical treatment, all while they're eating five star meals and being rehabilitated. The president is literally a miracle worker, I've seen her work first hand for years. If you adopt a LAHPSTR dog, you're adopting a family member and a gem❤

I love this rescue. They always make sure their rescue dogs have the best medical care and find a family that is perfect for each dog. Lend a Helping Paw Shih Tzu Rescue is about taking in the unwanted, the ones left behind and the ones with emotional as well as medical needs. They are about making sure the fur baby is ready for it’s forever home no matter how long it takes. I am truly happy to support and be part of their village that goes above and beyond to make sure each and every baby has the best rest of their lives.

This rescue is the best!! All the dogs that arrive here, receive white glove vetting. Topnotch care, and training, and the best love ever. It doesn't matter how they got to the rescue or why, it doesn't matter if they are sick, have behavior issues. Every single one gets the best of the best vetting by the best vets, the best feeding regiment. The best training.... and MOST of all they all receive so much love. The President of this Rescue, Malini truly loves and cares for every single fur baby that comes through these doors.
The adoption is exceptionally rigorous, as the rescue has to make sure every fur baby going to a fur ever home is a perfect match with adopters, and most definitely that the adopters themselves are a perfect match for each fur baby. The rescue is very transparent with all vets bills. Thank you Malini for being the best animal rescuer. It is an honor and pleasure to know you and work with this awesome rescue.

I am an active donor and help behind the scenes anyway I can. I have also approved to adopt from this group when the time comes. I can't say enough about this group and the treatment each and every rescue baby is given. Each and every baby is given the white glove treatment so they will be ready for a deserving forever home. I love this group and how everyone pulls together even though we are located all over the states and Canada.

I love this rescue. I am amazed at the level of love and care that these furry babies get each and every day. Many of these rescues are given a safe harbor to live out the rest of their lives with love and all of the care that they need. When it comes to medical treatment, they are given the best care available in the state of Michigan. Many of these babies are frightened and have behavioral issues. Malini works with them so that they can love and trust again. The results are amazing. I've been fortunate enough to see this rescue in action and it warms my heart to see all of the smiling and happy pups. They truly are treated like royalty. I highly recommend this rescue.

This previous year working as a volunteer with Lend a Helping Paw Shih Tzu Rescue has enabled me to visualize a new beginning in rescue Malini has implemented a wonderful system with pre-screening - foster care carefully chosen and the ultimate goal of adoption into the best fitting family for each individual rescue. I am so happy and honored to be a part of rescue with LAHPSTR as I look forward to placing more of Malini's fosters into their furrever homes

I am a donor to this top notch rescue and cannot think of a better cause! Malini is knowledgeable and compassionate and cares for dogs others overlook and leave behind. She is transparent in all her work and bills. She is the best at what she does. She ensures that when and only when the dog is ready for adoption with the absolute correct adopter, then it will happen. This rescue is platinum level, white glove service for all who interact with her. ❤❤

Barkley used to be a biter, and this rescue has retrained him to not do that. He was also very aggressive over his food. Now he waits for permission to eat and does nothing when a hand goes in his food bowl while he’s eating. He’s very happy and well adjusted now. Great rescue!

I adopted a FurBaby from this rescue in November of 2019. I had no issues whatsoever with anything that came along with the entire process. If you are serious enough about rescue then you have found the right place, the process was thorough and well worth it. You do what you have to, to ensure everything is perfect for both you, the pet, and the agency. These animals here are guaranteed to be well taken care of and in great shape. Malini devotes all of herself to rehabilitating the broken animals she rescues and is a wealth of knowledge in doing so which helps to ensure these babies are well taken care of. I would highly recommend this rescue to anyone looking for a FurEver baby.

When they say fully vetted, nothing remains undone. If the animal needs a specialist they see one. They take the hard to adopt and make them adoptable. Would not think twice about adopting from this rescue!!

It’s so awesome to see a rescue that is dedicated and specific with truly caring for the animals and finding the best home for the pups, vs any old home to turnover numbers. Lend a helping paw truly puts the needs of the pups first, giving them the best possible care and ensuring they are emotionally and physically ready to be adopted out. The care is genuine, and touching to see.

A rescue above the rest. A rescue that is positive a dog is fully vetted and going to a loving home. Love and compassion is what dogs are guaranteed when they find their way into this amazing rescue. They will be embraced and cared for until they are ready for their furever home. Thank you Malini for restoring my faith in rescue.

By far, one of the best rescue places for neglected, abused and unwanted dogs. Superb care, Transparency and honesty.

Such a wonderful, caring and loving rescue! They take in the saddest of cases and nurture these babies until they are are ready to go to a loving home. For those who may remain unadoptable, they care for them and love like their own forever.

I have watched Milani take so many dogs that worth at the end of the line and transformed them physically, mentally and socially back into the amazing dogs that they should have been ! Not only that, she has been extremely generous with recommendations to help me make my rescue dog thrive. You are truly receiving a special dog if you get one from this rescue!
