Here's what the humans have to say about me:
If Ian has not gotten his forever home he will be attending a MEET AND GREET AT PETCO IN ROSEVILLE September 16 FROM 12:00 TO 2:00. 2775 North Fairview Avenue 55113.
Ian is playful and is highly people motivated. He and his 9 siblings were surrendered to PUP because one dog was all the family could afford to feed. The mommy is described as a midsized dark colored dog. Hmmmm. Not a lot of clues there to her breed and daddy was a mystery man and no suspects have been named.
Ian appears to be 10-11 weeks old plus or minus and we think he will be in upper end of midsized or lower end of large breed. He has a short to medium length tri colored coat with a lot of white. His adopter should be prepared to love him if he is larger or smaller than predicted. Most of the dogs from the area have at least a bit of herding dog in their family tree and DNA testing shows 20 or more breeds, sometimes including shepherd, lab, Chihuahua or husky. We think Ian is part lab as he has webbed toes and loves to paddle in the water. He walks pretty well on a leash and is doing a very good job learning house breaking but is not quite there yet. He is crated at night and during the work day and he keeps his crate clean and dry.
The early months are when puppy learns the social skills needed to be a skilled dog in dealing with other dogs and a good citizen in the human world. Adopters should be committed to getting puppy into lots of new and different human social situations, hearing vacuums, trucks, and rattling garbage cans, meeting people who are clapping, laughing, with hats, tools, bikes and skate boards. AND puppy needs many opportunities to meet and greet dogs of all shapes, sizes and dispositions. Just sharing a home with another dog is not as much doggie socializing as puppy needs. If good canine social skills are not learned and maintained during these early months, it will be very difficult to ever master them. Puppy play dates, trips to the pet store, puppy socialization classes and later, obedience classes are particularly important. If all this doggie time and involvement seems like a good idea, you are up for a puppy! As always, a tired dog is a good dog.
Ian has been vet checked, wormed and had three routine vaccinations. He will need rabies at the owner’s expense. The $375 adoption fee (check or cash) includes the cost of pup’s required spay/neuter at 6 months of age provided it is done by one of the PUP vets. We do place puppies outside the metro area but a plan for the required spay/neuter must be in place. We do not ship.
If you are at least 21 years old and everyone in your household is on board with adopting a puppy, CALL 651-645-4370 between 7:00 am and 9:30 pm and we will return your call within 24 hours. If you elect to contact us via e-mail it may take several weeks for us to get back to you. Renters must provide proof that you are allowed to have a puppy. Please be prepared to provide a vet reference prior to adoption.
