Zhuri is sweet, smart, loveable and sometimes mischievious. She loves to chase butterflies and play with her friends at day care.
Thank you for supporting Zhuri in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid PAWS in their mission to help cats, dogs, and wild animals thrive in happy, healthy homes or in their natural habitats.
What is America's Favorite Pet?
Learn MoreZhuri’s favorite toy is a Hello Kitty rope toy. It was the first toy she ever played with. I’ve had to replace it because she destroyed the first one from playing with it so much.
Zhuri’s most unique quality is how she will lay down on her bed and binge watch shows with me. Her favorite shows to watch are Grey’s Anatomy and SWAT. She can sit outside for hours without barking when people watching. (Very rare because Samoyeds are generally very vocal) She also loves to pose and have her picture taken. A true model.
Not only is Zhuri so cute, she has become my unofficial emotional support dog. As a nurse, I used to struggle with work-life balance. I was over working, over tired, burnt out and stressed. Although having a puppy is hard work, Zhuri has done wonders for my mental health. We go for daily walks that we both enjoy and look forward to. She’s taught me that slowing down and enjoying the moment is just as important as going on all the adventures.
