The internet is crazy over Prancer, a rescue chihuahua who hates men, animals, and children. And how did it all happen? Read on.
It all started when his foster mom posted on Facebook and shared a brutally honest evaluation of how he is. Tyfanee Fortuna of New Jersey wrote, “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.” Fortuna thought that she’d at least get 20 shares but lo and behold, the post now has over 50k reactions and 73k shares. It went viral overnight. It even got over 290k likes when the post was shared on Twitter.
The Facebook post went viral because even though Prancer was dubbed as a demonic chihuahua, his foster mom was also able to transparently express how adorable, soft, and loyal Prancer is despite being problematic. She’s been fostering Prancer since November of last year. Prancer came to her obese and sad as he used to live with an old woman who just died. Prancer had no form of socialization whatsoever and was treated like an only child. As much as she wanted to have Prancer around, it just wouldn’t work as she already has 12 cats and 7 dogs. Hence, her honest plea.
Thanks to the post that went viral, the internet found a new sweetheart. Hundreds of people reached out to adopt Prancer and we’re very happy to report that he now has a forever home.

Prancer’s story is something that only dog lovers will truly understand. Dogs really can truly be crazy and problematic and still be heart-achingly lovable and adorable at the same time. We’re so happy for you, Prancer! Stay cool!
