Congratulations Walnut!Walnut ( now Cody) , the Shih Tzu went to his forever home this week !

Tammy and her family fell in love with this beautiful boy and decided to make him a forever member of their family. Cody is sleeping so peacefully at his forever home while his mom and sister watch him. What a precious moment! He knows now that his journey is over and only happy days are ahead of him!

Walnut is the second member of the Nut family to find a forever family. His family was dumped at a pet hotel in Korea and he and his mom Hazelnut and brother Chesnut came to the U.S after his brother Peanut was first adopted to a loving family last month.

We are so happy for you Cody! And congratulations to Tammy and her family on adding this precious boy to their family !
