My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Muppet is a funny little man who embodies the heart of a cartoon character, in looks and personality. He has all the energy of a young pup, with all the curmudgeonly sass of a beleaguered grandpa. This lively senior canine believes age is just a number. He springs into action the moment the back door opens or another dog enters his line of sight, eager to embrace the great outdoors or a new fluffy friendo! While a yard isn’t mandatory, he does require a harness for his meet-and-greet walks. Muppet's exterior is a gruff old Grinch; but deep down, he’s a caring mentor, taking younger, less confident dogs under his wing with the warmth of Kermit guiding his friends. He has a few quirky habits—like preferring to avoid dog stairs for the bed and getting persnickety when picked up (and not in the mood). Muppet gets along wonderfully with his doggy housemates, frolicking joyfully with even the oldest among them. He might give household cats a casual glance, but larger ones earn his respect and avoidance. Muppet is an olympic gold medalist at snuggling and may even sneak into your spot on the bed just to be a little closer to you. Overall, this character is loads of fun, he just wants it to be on his terms. If you’re looking for a sweet and affectionate companion to add joy and warmth to your life, Muppet is ready to be your beloved sidekick!

Ideal home for Muppet will be a calm, adult-only home, preferably female-only. No rambunctious kids or pets that would overpower him. Must have small breed experience with verifiable excellent veterinary reference.

Muppet is a male ShihTzu/Lhasa Apso who was was born approximately 5-26-12 and weighs 15 lbs. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, given flea/tick preventative, and started on heartworm prevention. Adoption fee is $300 to help offset the many expenses we have for vetting costs.
