Story
Meet Titan! Titan is the sweetest Yorkie gentleman with eyelashes that will melt any heart and manners better than most people on their best behavior.
Because his humans are military and being stationed in Asia, he landed at Miri's Haven with one goal: to find a family who will adore for him as much as they have. Titan has been deeply loved and well cared for, and it shows.
Titan is affectionate, happy, loving, patient, and smart. He loves treats, being close to his person, and being showered with love and attention. When he's excited, he spins in circles of joy, and should you be momentarily distracted from adoring him, he'll paw at you in the cutest way to get your attention back on him.
Titan is looking for a forever family where he will be loved like the little king he is. He wants to be included in daily activities, given endless snuggles and attention, and taken for lots of walks and fun adventures. He would thrive the most in a home that is generally calm and quiet, has a fenced yard, and can provide him with structure and a regular routine. In return, he promises to alert everyone promptly whenever someone is at the door.
Titan is mostly housebroken (he uses pee pads indoors), a great passenger in the car, and sleeps through the night (his preference is in bed snuggled up with his people). He's great on the leash, great with kids and other dogs, and doesn't mind staying home alone when his humans have to pop out - though he would love his humans to be home most of the time.
Because Titan has Protein-Losing Enteropathy (PLE), he needs a forever home with a family who understands his medical needs and is committed to providing the care and attention he deserves. PLE is a condition where the body loses protein through the gastrointestinal tract, and while serious, dogs like Titan can live full, rich lives as long they receive consistent treatment and monitoring.
Titan currently eats a prescription hydrolyzed protein diet to help his body absorb nutrients and takes daily medications, including cyclosporine to reduce immune-mediated inflammation and prednisone to help control his condition. He feels great day to day and has improved significantly since starting treatment. His adopter will need to commit to continuing his medications and special diet long-term, and ensuring he receives regular veterinary care and monitoring from an internal medicine specialist.
Titan needs a family who will treasure him again and help him live his best life. In return, he will give more love, snuggles, and joy than you can even imagine.
Titan is approximately 10 years old and 7 lbs.
Fostered in Bristow, VA
