The Ski puppies are a litter of 10 week old Pug mixes who are ready to hit the slopes with their new families! These babies came into our rescue at a month old with Mama Ski Bunny after being surrendered to the shelter, which is no place for a little family. We sprung into action and got them into a foster home, where they grew up into amazing little puppies. This litter is 2 boys and 2 girls. We estimate their adult weights will be between 18-20 pounds, with the girls being a little smaller. These pups are all fabulous and amazing and we can’t wait to see them shred powder with you on the slopes! Ski on!
Heavenly (F): Heavenly is ready to bring rays of sunshine and days of powder to her forever people! Unlike her boisterous siblings, Heavenly is most commonly found curled up with her humans as they chill on the couch. She does love to play, but she’s more likely to sniff around the yard and find sticks than get in the middle of a wrestling match. Like a baby, she plays peek-a-boo which is absolutely delightful. Heavenly loves rolling over and placing a tiny paw on your arm as you scratch behind her ears. She learned quickly that her puppy dog eyes and model poses can get her just about anything her heart desires, and she uses that power to get all the snuggles and treats! Ready to tackle all the black diamonds? Bring Heavenly and she will bless your ride!
Tahoe (M): Tahoe is an outgoing and loving gentleman who steals the spotlight wherever he goes! Tahoe loves giving kisses and rolls onto his back like a rolly polly whenever he thinks it’s time for more belly rubs (which is always). The only thing our boy loves more than snacks… is his people! Tahoe loves trotting behind his humans, tumbling over his adorable paws as he scrambles to keep up with the action. Tahoe has tons of puppy energy and loves to play, especially with stuffed toys and sticks he finds. Once our boy has gotten all his energy out, he is ready for a well-deserved snooze in your lap. We know that Tahoe would be the talk of any ski trip, as he tries to set a world record for fastest snowflake catching!
Vail (F): Vail is a cuddlebug who is excited to meet her cozy apres ski family. Vail loves giving puppy kisses whenever she sees you, especially when she can curl up under a blanket with you on these snowy winter days. Vail adores her canine companions and would be a fabulous addition to a home with a resident dog, but she could also fly solo! Vail thinks she is very feisty, growling adorably at her pile of toys as she launches herself onto them. We let her think that she’s the boss of the house because it’s impossible to say no to her puppy dog eyes! Vail will be the absolute best addition to her forever home and she can’t wait to make a lifetime of memories with you, from the slopes to the shore and everything in between!
Whistler (M): Whistler is a sweet boy who leads the pack in their daily adventures. Whistler is a fearless little man who explores new slopes with a spirit of adventure and an eye for activity. Whistler is super affectionate and loves being in your lap, in your arms, or basically wherever you are! This chunky little dude will just fling himself right into your lap and adorably demand all the cuddles he can possibly get. Truly, Whistler is just about the perfect puppy with his temperament and adorable little face. We know that whether he hits the slopes or the couch, he will make your life fabulous! Come and bring Whistler on your next trip to the slopes and let him fly!
The Ski puppies wake up around 7 AM and get served breakfast as their pen is cleaned out. Once they finish eating, they are herded outside for potty and playtime. During the day, they cycle between playing with toys, cuddling with their foster humans, getting their zoomies out, and napping in an adorable pile. They eat again at 12 PM and 5 PM. In the evening, the pups get some one-on-one snuggle time with their foster humans as they start to unwind from the day. They go out for one last potty practice and then trot into their pen for the night by 10 PM.
The Ski puppies have been well socialized with dogs of all ages and sizes since they came into rescue. They love meeting new humans, young and old, and are the talk of every gathering. Interested homes should be prepared to discuss plans for continued training and socialization. The pups are all super food motivated so training should be a breeze! If you’re ready to grab a day pass for adventure, pick up a Ski puppy today!
The Ski puppies are only an option for homes who have owned a dog in the last 5 years. Kids should be over the age of 5.
