Furby's Story

A mysterious oracle has arrived at Miri’s Haven, and we are still determining whether we rescued a 12-year-old Shih Tzu or accidentally summoned a cursed Furby from 1998 who has come to observe humanity and snack. <br/><br/>Furby is a fun, charming, fuzzy doggo. He has been enjoying his time in a foster home, but is hoping to find a forever home for the new year. He has lots of opinions. So far, here's what he's let his foster know about his likes and dislikes:<br/><br/>Furby loves snacks (preferably delivered with reverence), gentle strolls (exercise but make it elegant), lap time (where he absorbs your secrets), scritches, and plush beds (plural… he has declared several thrones already). <br/><br/>Furby does not enjoy baths, snow, rain, or strong wind (basically, anything where he will be wet or chilly). He does not love clothes, although he does look super handsome in a preppy sweater. Furby also gets anxious on car rides (perhaps because they mostly involve the V E T), but he does better with the help of a little trazadone. <br/><br/>Furby arrived with cataracts, glaucoma, and ulcers on his eyes. Following several weeks of unsuccessful treatment, it was determined that Furby would fare better without his peepers (which weren't doing their job anyway). He is adjusting very well and does not let his blindness stop him. He walks with confidence and can handle a couple of small steps, especially going up. If there are multiple or steep steps, he’s happy to be carried up and down them instead. He is a great eater and a champion lap sitter. <br/><br/>Furby gets along well with other dogs, big or small, and cats. He loves people and is very curious about the world. He enjoys plenty of grass-sniffing time and checking out every inch of the house for possible stray crumbs. He is housetrained, although if he isn’t taken out after a few polite requests, he may engage in some self-help. He does fine left home alone for reasonable periods of time and is always excited when someone comes to take him out for a potty break. <br/><br/>Overall, he is a charming, friendly boy. He has plenty to say about the world and can’t wait to share it with you. <br/><br/>Furby is approximately 12 years old and 10 lbs.<br/>Fostered in Falls Church, VA<br/>Please apply at MirisHaven.org
