LIL WEEZY - THE SMALL DOG WHO BEHAVES LIKE HE HAS A SECRET CONTRACT WITH JOY ITSELF (Side effects of meeting him may include involuntary smiling, emotional stability, and snack theft.) Allow me to introduce Lil Weezy, a 38-pound phenomenon who appears to have been assembled by a committee of mischievous angels who were told: "Make a dog who can unhinge a bad day at the hinges." His name? Oh, that's merely the first chapter. Lil Weezy also operates under a self-appointed ceremonial title that changes depending on his mood, weather patterns, and the interpretive dance of his tail. Today he is Lil Weezy, Keeper of Unreasonable Delight. Yesterday he went by Lil Weezy, Treasurer of Pocket Snacks (he takes this one very seriously). On Thursdays he answers only to Lil Weezy the Mildly Magical. He is pure, unfiltered delight wrapped in a fur suit. A bright, slightly chaotic blessing on four legs. His tail moves so fast it may qualify for its own zip code. His trot is a hopeful punctuation mark. His smile looks like sunrise remembered something important. He loves people with alarming sincerity. He greets dogs with the enthusiasm of a man entering a surprise party he planned for himself. He lies on floors like they are emotional support furniture. He investigates treats like he's conducting a congressional hearing. Lil Weezy occasionally trips over his own optimism and keeps right on going, radiating the dignity of someone who has transcended earthly embarrassment. You cannot dull him. You cannot out-joy him. You can only stand back and witness the phenomenon. And beneath every goofy antic, every wiggle, every "hello, I love you, I love you more," sits a soft-hearted sweetness that could calm a storm. If your life has been suspiciously quiet, suspiciously normal, or suspiciously lacking in four-legged wonder... Lil Weezy is ready to turn the mundane into magic. Bring home your daily dose of delight. PLEASE READ BELOW: If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting, the first step is to complete an application and read all of our FAQs: https://www.takepawsrescue.org/adopt Please note: Information to determine if you might be a match for one of our animals can only be found on our application. *An inquiry, questions or introduction through Petfinder is NOT an application* All known details about our animals are posted on their profile and updated daily. Other info will be discussed in detail with the foster during the application review process. Due to the high volume of introductions/questions received we ask you to submit an application (that application can be used for any dog with Take Paws Rescue). The adoption fee for adult dogs covers age appropriate vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter if not yet performed, heartworm test & appropriate heartworm treatment by the rescue's vet. All dogs in our care are also kept up-to-date on HW/Flea Prevention. For more on this, or for additional information, including the adoption process and our adoption fee scale for all our adoptable pets (including an explanation about Benefactor Dogs), please see our FAQs page: https://www.takepawsrescue.org/faq Any breed labels used by Take Paws Rescue, its employees/volunteers, or on vet records provided cannot be guaranteed. Breed labels are given based on information obtained during intake and/or best guesses based on appearance and/or temperament of the dogs and Take Paws Rescue gives no assurance to the accuracy of these labels. Labels are necessary for postings to many animal networking sites, such as our website, Chewy, Pet Finder, and others. These are in no way a guarantee. Additionally, exact age and potential size cannot be guaranteed. ***Take Paws Rescue saves dogs from high-kill shelters across the South, owner surrenders, and discarded dogs with uncertain futures. All of our animals live in foster homes where they are socialized, and well cared for. An application will be required to make sure it's the perfect match!
