Although he may look like Chewbacca’s smaller cousin or a sentient haystack, Strength is a mutt of many flavors – we think some shih tzu, maybe some yorkie (honestly maybe a little Chewy, who knows?). Strength’s hair is so big because it has to contain all of his charisma, because this little guy is campaigning to be the Mayor of Muttville. He indiscriminately befriends all he encounters, whether they be human or canine, and it’s hard to resist tangling your hands in his gorgeous blonde locks. We suspect that, with a good groom, Strength may look like a completely different dog, but that’s all the better – you can have two dogs for the price of one! And who doesn’t need a little more Strength?
Here's some notes from his foster:
Strength is a very sweet boy who wants to be near you and loves getting scritches.
He’s got a surprising amount of energy! He loves his walks. On some walks he’s eager and out in front for over a mile at a brisk pace, other walks he’d rather just sniff all the things. Most of the day he’s happy to snooze near you in his bed.
He’s good with people and dogs. He gets along great with our young kitty. He does ok being left alone - he’ll bark for a few minutes, but then he settles down. Rides fine in car.
