Meet IZZY, the dog that proves perfection is overrated!At first glance, she resembles a bat who lost a bet with genetics. At second glance, still a bat, but with an impressive side eye. But give it five minutes and you'll notice her personality-which is somehow even louder than her ears. On walks, she sniffs with the focus and sound of a truffle pig, until a scary storm drain stops her dead in her tracks (in the middle of the road in front of a passing car). Indoors, she enjoys gently nibbling on or carrying around her toys, never destroying them, because violence is unnecessary when you have *technique*Yes, she's quirky. Yes, she's ugly-cute in a way that grows on you like a weird tattoo you eventually love. But here's the twist: she's potty trained, only 50 lbs, spayed, and knows how to live indoors like a civilized creature, even sharing a pillow with you if you let her! She's perfectly imperfect-just a strange little 4.5 year old gremlin, perfect for someone with a sense of humor, a soft spot for underdogs, and the emotional maturity to say, "Yeah... she's weird. She's my weird."Adopt Izzy. Be the hero who saw the bat-pig-dog and said, "Yes. That one!"Email her foster mom at Elizabeth.w.huber@gmail.com to meet her!Although she is heartworm positive, it is treatable and not contagious. Friends of Wake County Animal Center has provided a $600 sponsorship to help cover the cost of treatment.She is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and spayed.
