FOZZIE B Cairn Terrier Mix Phoenix, AZ

Fozzie B will turn three years old in March 2019, right about the time he passes his one-year anniversary mark at Home Fur Good. He is a 19-pound Cairn Terrier mix with an independent nature, but that just might be the very definition of a terrier. When Fozzie B arrived at HFG, he attached himself to his favorite person. He decided he was only going to show his loving side to her and everyone else would be warned off. HFG provided one-on-one training sessions for Fozzie, to work on his selectiveness. He worked with a trainer twice a week. The trainer not only worked with Fozzie, but also with staff and volunteers to show everyone how to positively train Fozzie to allow strangers into his life. Fozzie has really opened up and has become more accepting of others. He loves to receive belly rubs and to give out kisses. He will lay on his back for endless belly rubs. Fozzie is also a great fetcher, although sometimes you need to convince him to give up the ball when he returns it. He has also spent time in a foster home where he exhibited behavior of being fully housebroken; he will use the doggy door. There are other dogs in his foster home, and he gets along with all of them. Fozzie is probably not a good fit with children, but if you have the time and patience to develop an unbreakable bond, please take a moment to meet Fozzie B, and then maybe meet him another time and maybe another, until he is ready to be your best friend. The adoption fee is $225 and includes spaying/neutering, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipping, and a free wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital.
