Kicking us off for haircare week is a black and white shih tzu mix who looks like he could use a bit of haircare himself – Sideburn! This lovely lad has the most adorable bowlegged stance as he toddles around Muttville looking for other doggos or humans to introduce himself to. Sideburn is the epitome of a senior sweetheart with just the gentlest manners and a most pleasant expression on his furry little face. Sideburn is looking for the perfect furever home filled with treats, cuddles, and lots of love, and he’s absolutely optimistic that Muttville is the place to find it. If you have a Sideburn-shaped hole in your heart, won’t you come meet him today?
Here’s some notes from his foster:
Sideburn is an awesome dog. He is house trained, quiet, well mannered, and a total gentleman. He gets along with dogs of all sizes and occasionally plays with smaller dogs if he vibes with them. He loves food! And he might even cutely grumble a little at the dinner table in hopes you share a bite with him. He has great manners when being groomed and bathed. He doesn’t mind the blow dryer nor having his paw pads shaved. He is perfectly polite when you wipe his paws after a muddy walk.
He isn’t a fan of the rain. He will need help getting up the stairs. Also, he enjoys being on the couch and the bed, but needs his humans to help him get up there. He can get down the stairs but would prefer you help him. He enjoys slow peaceful walks through the park and has had no problem walking several blocks as long as you’re ok with his slower gentlemanly pace.
Sideburn would do best in a house where his owners aren’t wanting to take him on long active hikes. He prefers chilling at home and cuddling. And being a gentleman.
