Description

Parmesan has the bluntest nose and squarest face of the litter. She has gorgeous gunmetal gray brindle coloring. There isn’t a reclusive bone in her body because she is always easy to find.



Personality

Parmesan is a square little package of love. She is soft, cuddly, shiny and very kissy when presented with your cheek. Like the other female puppies in the litter, she is lighter, less dense and slightly smaller than the males. She is used to being picked up and carried around. The puppies are already 85% potty trained since only 10 weeks old. They go outside and are pee pad trained too. They are very well socialized to other dogs, cats and people. Parmesan’s skills are climbing on top of puppy piles, sniffing for frogs in the yard, finding the lost crumbs of dogfood underneath things, and squeezing herself under the cabinets. She is patient, listens, and learns things quickly. She comes when called and responds to people talking to her. A smart and sweet cookie.



Background

Parmesan’s litter was born to a stray momma, Velveeta, who had been running loose in a neighborhood in Spring TX for many months. Velveeta is a red and black mixed breed who is only 35 pounds and was underweight when she arrived. She wouldn’t ever let anyone come close to her until she gave birth to her 8 puppies in a neighbors garage. Another neighbor then took her in to get them out of the extremely hot weather, and let her nurse her litter in their laundry room. When the puppies were 2 weeks old they were transferred to a GNAR foster home. 4 girls and 4 boys. Velveeta is a very good momma to them and teaches them to be good dogs.

This puppy is available on a foster to adopt basis. He has received one set of vaccines so far and will be eligible to go to his adoptive home after the second set of vaccines in 3-4 weeks. Schedule your meet and greet today, this cutie will go fast!
