Update:  Zuni is living with an elderly couple in PA.  He is the only dog and he is in heaven.  They are willing to foster him for the remainder of his life.  If you are able to help with the expenses associated with Zuni's care please consider donating on his behalf.  Thank you.

My people call me Zuni-licious because I’m so sweet. Of all the dogs who have ever owned them, I am the best cuddler. I don’t want anything more than to sit in your lap to let you give me lots of love and I’ll give you love right back. At night you can throw away your cold, inanimate body pillows, your heating pads, and your electric blankets.  I gladly cuddle up next to you with a great preference to be spooned, keeping you warm through the night.  Even though my brother and sister poms in my foster home don't weigh as much as me put together, I see it as no reason to not plop myself into your lap as if I only weigh ten pounds.  I'm no couch potato unless that's what you are into at the time.  I love to sit on the deck with my brother and sister and watch the neighborhood go by, with some vocal encouragement from our chorus.  But don't think I bark a lot.  Just enough to say, "Hey!".

As wonderful as I am, you may wonder why I am looking for a home. After 12-years of love and loyalty, my former people let a small human pull my tail. It hurt me and I used my mouth to take his hand away. That upset them, so they kicked me out of the house. Animal control found me and then ERU took me home minutes before I was going to take a really long nap. I don’t want to be in that situation again, so I think it would be best if there aren’t any small people in my furever home.

Just so you know who wants to adopt you, I’ll tell you about myself. I am very well-mannered. I know that the bathroom is outside and I can use a doggie door. I get excited when you wake up in the morning or when you come home and I will run in circles to show you how happy I am to see you. I am polite with other dogs and am learning to play a little with one of my foster sisters (see video below). I LOVE LOVE LOVE to play fetch with tennis balls, but I’m not really sure what to do with other round and/or squeaky and/or fluffy things. Just the tennis ball, thank-you. I’ll bring it back every time and run in circles until you throw it again. I am very gentle with my people, but I do expect to be allowed on the furniture. I will cuddle as much as you want. No limits from me.  Sometimes, I might even climb on top of the couch and sit above you head to see the TV better. I don’t want to sleep alone and I’m willing to share the bed with you; in fact, I’ll be very sad if you don’t want to sleep with me.  I walk nicely on a leash and don’t pull, but I don’t really know any commands other than sit and out. I will always come when you call me, though, because I don’t want to be too far away anytime you need to pet me.

If you think that I should be your newest family member, please contact my people at clippinger@gmail.com. Don’t let my age fool you. I am mature and have just the right amount of energy. Not too spazzy, but not too mellow either. I’m just right.
