Snickelfritz, or Fritzy for short, was adored by his loved ones and social media followers alike for 1.5 years. He was the runt of his litter, no larger than a golf ball and was adopted at a discount since he had been at the store for much longer than usual.

Despite being so small, Fritzy had a larger-than-life personality. He was sweet, curious, easy-going, clumsy, and timid yet grew to be very social for his breed. He loved to travel, going on several family vacations to Ocean City, Maryland. Fritzy’s favorite food was banana, as he enjoyed small banana slices and banana-flavored Gerber baby puffs.

Fritzy’s mom Danielle felt deeply bonded to him as he was there to help her graduate college and start her first full-time job. He was also loved and cherished by Danielle’s family: Trish, Gianna, Kim and Anthony, as well as Danielle’s partner, Nate.

Fritzy passed away due to a respiratory infection on January 1st, 2026. He will forever be remembered as a tiny fluffball with a lot of curiosity and soul.
