HASANI – I’VE BEEN ADOPTED!!!
Handsome, handsome, handsome, that’s what the name Hasani means in Egyptian and that’s me! I am one good-looking little Shih Tzu boy. My foster parents think that I am about 2 years old. I weigh 9 pounds, and have a beautiful caramel-brown coat. I also have a white stripe on my chest and a little tiny brown nose just like my coat. My coat is very soft and my foster mom says that she loves to cuddle with me because I feel so good. And she says that my baby face makes her want to just squeeze me to pieces!!
I am a special needs dog as I am blind in both eyes, but don’t let that stop you from checking me out! Even though I am blind I get along very well once I learn the lay of the land. And, if I bump into something, that’s just fine by me. It’s helping me to learn my surroundings. Actually I love to be close to my foster mom and dad and will search them out. I often bump into things when I’m looking for them. You see, whenever I find them I know that I will get hugs, kisses, and lots of cuddles. My very favorite thing to do is to be loved by my family. I don’t want to be a pest so I am also just happy to be at their feet or sitting next to them. My family gives me the confidence I need.
My foster mom and dad say that I am also quite the independent little guy. I like to explore the outside and smell the grass and the flowers. I also am learning how to walk on a leash with Mom and Dad close by to guide me. I listen for their encouraging words. I also am doing great with housebreaking.
I love my foster brother and sisters and I also learn from them! We play and romp together and I follow them around. I love my treats and make sure that I gently take them from Mom or Dad’s hand when they are offered. That’s one thing I didn’t learn from my siblings! They snatch and run with their treats. I am excited when I get one, but I know how to be a gentleman.
I do a special little dance that makes my foster parents laugh. And they say that I am adorable when I do it! I bounce back and forth from one front paw to the other and then I paw my back legs one at a time, just like a bull would do. It’s called “Hasani Aerobics” and it’s special to me!
I think my ideal forever home would have someone home most of the time to give me all the love and attention that I crave. A nice lap to cuddle-up in would be absolutely fabulous!!! Do you think that lap might be yours?
If you think I might be the right little guy for your family, please email my foster parents at tzuaustin@gmail.com. Also, I have my very own Petfinder page that you can look at to learn even more about me.
I am altered, up-to-date on all my shots and am heartworm negative.
