Story

Name: MurziSex: MaleAge: 2 years oldBreed: English Pointer MixSize: MediumColor: Black & WhiteWeight: 38 lbs Neutered: YesVaccinated: YesDewormed: Yes4DX: Negative Personality:Murzi is a happy-go-lucky, playful pup with a big personality! He’s energetic, goofy, and loves to entertain himself—especially by spinning in circles chasing his tail. He does great with people and smaller dogs, though he can be a bit enthusiastic during playtime. He’s about 75% leash trained and continuing to improve every day. Murzi is also very clean in his space and will patiently wait to be let outside to do his business. When he’s not playing, he enjoys relaxing on his bed—and of course, mealtime is one of his favorite parts of the day! About:Murzi was found wandering near a medical office, where he had been hanging around for weeks in hopes that someone would feed him. Thankfully, one of our collaborators stepped in to help. Now safe and cared for, Murzi is ready for a loving home—ideally one with space for him to run, play, and spin to his heart’s content. He’s a joyful, loyal companion just waiting for his second chance Murzi is currently waiting in Mexico for a committed adopter to start a 10-day trial, which allows him to make the trip north to his future home. His adoption fee is $600. Learn more or apply at: www.northwestwagrescue.org ##2700867##

Story

Looking for a small dog with big emotions and a PhD in Overthinking? Meet this 4 year old,10 lb Chihuahua who is UTD on shots, microchipped, and neutered. He is a sentient tremor wrapped in fur who is 90% nerves and 10% audacity. He wakes up every day shocked that the world still exists and is approaching everything with extreme caution and side eye. He is not a beginner dog. He is a graduate level emotional support project. Progress will be slow, awkward, and occasionally dramatic but it will happen, especially if you come bearing his three sacred offerings: peanut butter, dehydrated chicken, and Churus. These treats temporarily deactivate his fear response and unlock his inner cat dog goblin. He requires another playful, friendly dog in the home to act as his emotional support coworker and living proof that couches, humans, and life in general are not lethal. (This is non negotiable.) He is cat friendly. He’s seeking a quiet, adult only home (no kids). Women are his preferred demographic, but a calm, patient, dog savvy man may be allowed after a background check, a waiting period, and approximately 70 snack bribes. This Chihuahua will not immediately love you. He will not appreciate your enthusiasm. He will judge you silently from across the room. But if you enjoy earning trust the hard way, celebrating wins like “stood near me without panicking,” and being chosen by a dog who takes loyalty very seriously, congratulations you may be worthy. Warning: once bonded, he will follow you everywhere and police your snack consumption with authority. If you are ready to share patience, love and snacks woth Georgie, please fill out a Statement of Interest for him. ##2533435##
