MALE | BORN APPROX MARCH 2019 | AUSTRALIAN TERRIER X SHIH TZU LOCATED IN AUCKLAND Meet Whitby – the scruffy heartthrob who’s already taken his foster home by storm.
What we’ve learned so far:
He bonds faster than Wi-Fi. Honestly, he’s already more emotionally available than your ex.
Enjoys spa days. Bath? Check. Towel-dry? Check. Modeling career incoming? Also check.
Made instant friends with his canine foster sibling. Zero drama, full bromance.
Belly rubs are his kryptonite. Touch the belly, unlock his soul.
Areas for Improvement (aka Whitby’s Netflix spin-off “Work in Progress”):
Cats. Right now, he thinks they’re mysterious woodland sprites who must be pursued at all costs. We’re teaching him they’re actually just small furry roommates.
Lead skills. Currently auditioning for “Fast & the Furious: Sidewalk Drift.” But he’s clever, responsive, and already making progress – so the glow-up is underway.
Overall: Whitby is an energetic, curious, life-loving little dude who’s equal parts hilarious chaos gremlin and total cuddle bug. He just needs a patient, experienced human to continue his “Becoming the Best Boy” journey.
