New Puppies! Born mid-October 2008, this litter of eight puppies is in foster care & looking for homes. Each one is cute as can be with a mixture of heaven-knows-what-breeds. They were pulled within two days of being dropped off at a rural county shelter. They are being spayed/neutered the week of December 15th. They will be ready for homes the week of December 22nd.

The puppies are being fostered with other puppies on a horse farm. This means children, adults, barn cats, of course other dogs AND horses are around the puppies helping to socialize them. The major exposure to so many species bodes well for each puppy & future family (you?) because a well socialized dog is a good dog. (Followed by the other slogan: A tired dog is a good dog.)

Malone is predominantly black with just a few white and brown markings. He is shy right now, but quickly learning people are good. He has the cutest face and soulful eyes.

Please note: Each puppy's adopter is expected to be knowledgeable about (or willing to learn) how to housetrain a puppy because that will be the adopter's job. Housetraining puppies involves frequent trips outside by puppy AND person (on leash even in a fenced yard) with lots of praise &/or rewards. No puppies go potty indoors for spite. It's all up to the people to teach the puppy kindly & patiently where acceptable potty spots are.

If you need a little more love in your life from the paws of a puppy like this one, & if you want to give a little more love from your life to our puppy friend, please contact Beckey, the foster mom, via email. She can send you an application.

We project that the adoption fees for these puppies is likely to be around $160 each if all goes well with the vetting. These puppies have required additional expenses of Frontline & deworming medications because whoever dropped them at the pound wasn't a responsible caregiver.

Thanks for visiting our pretty little rescue pup.
