This Shih Tzu Got Adopted by 75 People

Chewy the Shih Tzu was found wandering Austin’s streets with matted fur and no one looking for him, a sad sight that broke the heart of an employee at The Philomena assisted living center. When they tracked down his original owners through his microchip, the response was crushing – they didn’t want him back and even blocked all communication attempts. But what seemed like the end of Chewy’s story was actually the beginning of something beautiful as 75 seniors decided to collectively adopt him as their community dog.

Now the dog nobody seemed to want has become the most beloved member of The Philomena family, greeting visitors in the front office and joining residents for Scrabble nights. He works miracles with dementia patients who struggle to communicate but suddenly find words when Chewy appears, and he’s become an expert at riding on residents’ walkers while spreading joy throughout the facility. His transformation from a mangy street dog to a dapper gentleman who sometimes dresses up for outings proves that the best families aren’t always the ones you’re born into. Chewy has found his perfect home where actions truly speak louder than words, and 75 hearts beat a little happier knowing he’s safe.
