These pups were rescued when their mama was rescued after she had been abandoned in a rural area of Rutherford Co, NC. 'Good Samantha' took her in and allowed her to be free to roam at will which resulted in the pregnancy. After the pups were born, 'Good Samantha' had to leave the state for a good job offer, leaving the mama and her litter with her daughter who had just had a baby of her own(the baby is allergic to dogs), so they contacted Howlin4Spirit for help. Howlin4Spirit took in the pups and had mama('Honey'=dob:~1/6/2018) spayed and brought up to date on her vaccines. We will be seeking a new home for this super-sweet and loving mama when she has fully recovered from her surgery.
pup's dob: 12/28/2018...Mama is a VERY SWEET solid red Shar-Pei, and we believe Jesse & July's daddy was a neighboring ShepherdX.
July and Jesse have longer legs(Shar-Pei/Shepherd), while JoJo has shortish legs(a combo of each parent's breed traits) and Jasper, Jake, Jazzy and Jeep have very short legs(PugX).
ALL are very sweet, well-socialized with people('Good Samantha's daughter was their prime care-taker and spent a lot of time handling and caring for them, so they were socialized from very early on with humans) and get along well with each other.
Happy, healthy, and will receive 3 puppy boosters before they will be spay/neutered on April 4th & 5th and will be ready to go to their fur-ever homes on SAT/April 13th.
Jesse's 'cherry eye' will be repaired when she is spayed on April 2nd.
Loving little snuggle-bums will be excellent family pets for families with an older, respectful child 10yrs or older.
Shar-Peis are a guardian breed, so experience is a plus when applying/being approved. H4S stresses that we will only accept applications where there are no young, inexperienced children living in the home.
PERFECT scenario for the right home for these pups is a 1-child family, active early retired couple or single person with a fenced-in backyard, who enjoys a snuggle-bum to pal around with and share life's adventures with.
We estimate these pups will be ~35>45lbs as adults and will live ~11>14yrs.
Must have fenced-in yard or be committed to walking 3X daily for the proper daily exercise, and committed to bathing 2X month for their ultimate health & grooming needs, to be approved. No exceptions!
These pups are in and will remain in foster care in Rutherfordton, NC until they have recovered from their spay/neuter surgery and their fur-ever home is approved.
Transport is available from western NC along the I-95 corridor to as far as NH/VT(every Saturday) and to Albany/Rochester area(2nd & 4th Friday, each month). Fees are: $125 to as far as Vince Lombardi svc plaza/NJTnpk & JerichoNY, and $140 to all points N and W of Jericho/VinceLombardi.
