A foster owner went viral because of her hilarious description of a ‘neurotic’ dog who hates men, children, and other animals.
Tyfanee Fortuna from New Jersey is fostering a two-year-old Chihuahua named Prancer but she hopes to find him a new home.
In her brutally honest post on Facebook, she said that there is no way to make Prancer sound ‘palatable.’
“I’ve tried for the last several months to post this dog for adoption and make him sound… palatable,” she wrote. “The problem is, he’s just not. There’s not a very big market for neurotic, man hating, animal hating, children hating dogs that look like gremlins.
“But I have to believe there’s someone out there for Prancer, because I am tired and so is my family. Every day we live in the grips of the demonic Chihuahua hellscape he has created in our home. If you own a Chihuahua you probably know what I’m talking about.
“He’s literally the Chihuahua meme that describes them as being 50% hate and 50% tremble. If you’re intrigued and horrified at how this animal sounds already, just wait….there’s more.”
She continued: “Prancer came to me obese, wearing a cashmere sweater, with a bacon egg n cheese stuffed in his crate with him. I should have known in that moment this dog would be a problem. He was owned by an elderly woman who treated him like a human and never socialized him.
“Sprinkle in a little genetic predisposition for being nervous, and you’ve concocted a neurotic mess, AKA Prancer. His first week he was too terrified to have a personality. As awful as it sounds, I kind of liked him better that way. He was quiet, and just laid on the couch. Didn’t bother anyone.
“I was excited to see him come out of his shell and become a real dog. I am convinced at this point he is not a real dog, but more like a vessel for a traumatized Victorian child that now haunts our home.”
Tyfanne further said: “Prancer only likes women. Nothing else. He hates men more than women do, which says a lot. If you have a husband don’t bother applying, unless you hate him. Prancer has lived with a man for 6 months and still has not accepted him.
“He bonds to a woman/women, and takes his job of protection seriously. He offers better protection than capitol security. This also extends to other animals. Have other dogs? Cats? Don’t apply unless they like being shaken up like a ragdoll by a 13lb rage machine. This may be confusing to people, as he currently lives with my other 7 dogs and 12 cats.
“That’s because we have somewhat come to an agreement that it’s wrong to attack the other animals. But you know that episode of The Office where Michael Scott silently whispers “I’ll kill you.” to Toby? That’s Prancer having to begrudgingly coexist with everyone when I’m around.”
“We also mentioned no kids for Prancer. I think at this point, you can imagine why. He’s never been in the presence of a child, but I can already imagine the demonic noises and shaking fury that would erupt from his body if he was. Prancer wants to be your only child,” she continued.
“So what are his good traits? He is loyal beyond belief, although to tell you a secret his complex is really just a facade for his fear. If someone tried to kill you I can guarantee he would run away screeching. But as far as companionship, you will never be alone again.
“He likes to go for car rides, he is housebroken, he knows a few basic commands, he is quiet and non destructive when left alone at home, and even though we call him bologna face he is kind of cute to look at. He also “smiles” when he is excited.
“His ideal home would be with a single woman, a mother and daughter, or a lesbian couple.point 189 | You can’t live in an apartment or a condo unless you want him to ankle bite your neighbors.point 265 |
We already addressed the men and children situation.point 45 | If you have people over he would have to be put away like he’s a vacuum.point 104 | I know finding someone who wants a chucky doll in a dogs body is hard, but I have to try.point 174 | ”point 177 | 1
For those who are interested, Prancer is available through Second Chance Pet Adoption League.
One person commented: “He sounds perfect for me when can I pick up?”
Another wrote: “Maybe if you put his cashmere sweater back on it will help contain the demons plaguing him.”
A third added: “I hope you find a home for him! Your description had me dying lol”
