My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Niles is back with his brother Frasier and the rest of my little "pack." It's difficult to keep track of everything a puppy puts in its mouth, and with it being walnut season the local squirrels are leaving lots of detritus around the yard. Puppy health can also go downhill fast, so I'm grateful that Gunter's Legacy Animal Rescue, Inc. didn't hesitate to authorize an urgent vet visit when NIles started vomiting and being listless. With fluids and anti-nausea meds he regained his appetite and he was the lucky recipient of some plain chicken and rice tonight. Once he went back into the yard for a potty break tonight, he grabbed something in his mouth and I had to chase him and pull out a small piece of wood. Oh, puppies!

Frasier and Niles start the day chewing on nylabones in the morning sun, just as we start our day over a cup of coffee or tea. These handsome boys were neutered and had the last of their puppy shots last Friday. Four months old and available for adoption NOW, they are Chihuahua and Jack Russell terrier mixes. Niles is currently just over 7 lbs and should be about 10 lbs when fully grown. Frasier has a slightly heavier frame and may get to 12 lbs. They are house-trained and sleep through the night in a crate together. During the daytime, they love to play with the other dogs in their foster home and enjoy the backyard. What are you waiting for? Fill out our adoption application at https://www.gunterslegacy.org/adopt and you can enjoy that special puppy smell!
