Story

Muppet Bio Muppet is a little one-eyed guy with a big personality. He’s 11.5 years old, 12 lb, with a beautiful dapple coat. He came to Little Paws when his family became unable to meet his needs. He’s looking for a calm new home where his people will be around (or with whom he can go on adventures) most of the time. There’s nothing like his happy dance and seeing him get excited is like seeing a puppy with zoomies! Environment Muppet is house and crate trained. He loves to sleep in his crate and doesn’t get up in the night, but we’ve seen some marking behavior he’s working on that. He loves to explore in the yard and he tried to chase the chickens in his foster home. Ideally his new home will have a fenced yard and no shared walls. Muppet walks well on the leash but is working through some reactivity, he’s quite fearful of big dogs and acts dominant toward little ones. Because of his vision impairment he can be easily startled and we wouldn’t trust him not to bolt. For the same reason he can be chatty. Pets & People Muppet will be aloof at first, but warms up quickly and will be in love with you before you know it. He wants to be near his people, but he’s more of a shadow than a lap dog. Around new people he will act tough and greet them vocally, but not aggressively. He’s untested around children and we’ve noticed that he doesn’t like fast or erratic movements so a home with children would not be a good fit.  Muppet would be best in a home without other dogs or with very calm smaller dogs. He doesn’t like being jostled—especially around his head/face and gets a little grumpy with the seniors in his foster home. If you’re looking for a devoted little adventure pawdner—this could be your guy.  Health Muppet has special food for sensitive tummies, and two eye drops in his remaining eye for glaucoma. His left eye is gone, and he doesn’t have the best vision but he does just fine getting around and living life. He will need quarterly checks on his eye.  Location Muppet is available for adoption from Kenly, NC and adores riding in the car. Approved potential adopters must be willing to drive to Kenly, NC to meet Muppet prior to adoption. Please email horselovertrish@yahoo.com with any questions or complete an adoption application at the button above. The adoption fee for Muppet is $250.

Story

 ALL our cats and dogs are in the NY area but can be adopted out of state to the purrfect furever home.  In some cases, we can help transport.  Zani's al fresco Summer Adoptions  follow us on FB to find us this summer as we will try new locations to meet the needs of NYC and support the little stores:)     4m old Jerry  from Puerto Rico. All dogs are located in NY/NJ area All our puppies need puppy play dates/doggy facetime so we recommend homes with other pups or daily interactions to keep them tired out, happy and social.     Facebook: Zani's Furry Friends ZFF (weekly adoption event info posted there) Twitter: zanisff  Instagram: zanisfurryfriends   Dogs are spayed/neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, Rabies vaxed, and microchipped (not Lyme vaxed but we seriously recommend it!)  All are in the NY/NJ area but we will adopt out of state to the purrfect home and in some cases, we can arrange transport.  Please go to our site  https://zanisfurryfriends.org  fill out an application  Many of us (cats/dogs) will be on display on Saturdays or Sundays, weather dependent--please ask by writing us at dogs@zanisfurryfriends.org and following us on FB.

Usually we are in our foster homes so this is a bit more stressful and a slightly artificial environment but we do want to be seen and find our furever homes too.   Please consider providing a home for more than one dog, especially if you are considering adopting a puppy. Dogs are pack animals and very much enjoy as well as need other dog company to learn to play, socialize and be good companion animals to people. The upside to this is that you won't feel as guilty leaving them alone and you get twice the love. Please come! And if you can't adopt, maybe you can foster or volunteer, and you can always donate! If you want to know about cats/dogs specifically being shown at our adoption locations, please email us info@zanisfurryfriends.org closer to the date so we know your interest and will make every effort to have that pet at the event or let you know how and where you can meet.  It is extemely helpful and speeds up adoption if the application is filled out prior to visiting us so please do that before coming to our weekend events. Our weekend locations are: Saturdays or Sundays, weather dependent  Follow us on FB, Zani's Furry Friends ZFF, for latest updates. Usually we are in our foster homes so all this is a bit more stressful but we do want to be seen and find our furever homes. Please come!
