My story

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

You would think a guy named Payroll had something to do with time cards. Actually, it's a reference to his chins. A super senior chi in a lustrous brindle coat, he does not lack for velvet dewlaps. He also has special ears and plenty of energy for puttering, sniffing and short walks. He's not going to fetch anyone's pipe and slippers, but Payroll is always ready to cuddle and listen to the latest news, baseball scores and some Miles Davis, if you've got it. A lap, a bed and thou is all he requires. You'll be paid handsomely in snoogs and kisses.

Here's some notes from his foster:

Payroll is such a special little potato-shaped dog. (I think he's a pug-chi mix since he's pretty much all pug aside from the smooshed nose/curled tail and has beautiful brindle coloring. And since he doesn't have the smooshed nose, he doesn't seem to have awful breathing issues!) He's pretty laid back and easy to take care of.

He likes napping and hopping around our yard during potty breaks, and LOVES food. He is fairly quiet, but does talk if he wants something. He can be quite sensitive, so if there's an alpha dog in the house, he can easily get pushed around, so he just needs a house with chill dogs. He's such a fun, sweet old man who will make a great companion!

More about this rescue

Muttville is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization dedicated to improving the lives of senior dogs. On a local level, Muttville rescues senior dogs and finds them foster homes or gives them hospice. On a global level, Muttville provides information about caring for older dogs and support for people who do.

Through associations with shelters and other animal organizations, Muttville finds senior dogs that have been given up and are not likely to find adopted homes. Through outreach and networking, Muttville finds suitable foster homes for these dogs. Ultimately, Muttville will have its own facility to house dogs that are not yet placed, or that are unlikely to be placed.
