AMARETTO

My name is Amaretto, but I prefer to be called Rhett. My foster mom started calling me that because she thinks that I am as good looking and debonair as Rhett Butler!!! I think that’s pretty cool for I am truly one very handsome 5-6 year old beige and white Shih Tzu boy. I was at the local animal shelter before I came into foster care so I also consider myself to be VERY lucky!! I now have a great foster home with great foster siblings to play with and I hope someday soon to live in my forever home.
I had a bit of a rough beginning when I came into foster care as I had a broken jaw that needed to be fixed. I had the surgery to correct my jaw and now I am happy and healthy. I have the cutest little lopsided smile as a result of my surgery!! I do have to be careful of the kind of food I eat and also the kind of toys I play with. Other than that, I have no restrictions. My foster mom says that I have a great attitude considering all I have been through. She even calls me her best and favorite foster boy!! Don’t let my foster siblings hear that!!!
I’m a good walker and love to go for walks in the neighborhood. I also like to play with my toys and run around the house with my foster siblings. We all have a great time together. When I am finally tired from all that playing, I love to sit in my foster mom’s lap to get pets and tummy rubs. I’m quite the cuddler and will give you lots of kisses.
If you think that I would be a perfect match for your family, please contact my foster mom at seastham1@gmail.com. She can tell you lots more about me. Also, please look at my Petfinder page for even more information.
I am altered, up-to-date on all my shots and am heartworm negative.
