Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Tuffy: black & tan male puppy DOB 1-29-11, natural ears & natural tail. Tuffy is a VERY special boy. He was the 2nd born on 1-29-11. Tuffy struggled his first couple weeks of life. Many people thought he wouldn't make it. But his foster mom got up every 2 hours to tube feed him for almost 2 weeks straight. Because of her love, dedication, and the love from all of his Facebook followers Tuffy lived up to his name and pulled though like a champ. Now Tuffy is a happy, healthy little puppy. He is very sweet and social. Because Tuffy's mom was not cared for properly in her life Tuffy has what is called "uveitis" in his left eye. It does not bother him or slow him down but he may always have a bluish haze in his eye. It is hardly noticeable and while it may effect some of his vision in that eye it's impossible to tell by the way he acts and gets around. The puppies are being raised in a foster home where they spend the majority of their day in the living room. Their foster mom works from home so they receive plenty of hands on care. They are also socialized with other dogs, other people, and a puddy cat. The puppies, even at 6 weeks old, are already using their potty pad over 90% of the time. Their foster mom has been diligently working on rearing very social well adjusted puppies who will have a good training base by the time they get adopted. The puppies will not be available for adoption until the end of April 2011. Adopters will be required to have their puppy spayed when they are 6 months old if it can not be done before they are adopted. They will also be required to attend obedience training within the first 6 months after their adoption. Miniature Pinschers are NOT recommended for families with children under the age of 7. Please research the breed before applying to adopt. Adopting a puppy is not something to rush into. Min Pins can live 15-18 years & they deserve a home who will love them forever, not just for now. If you have done your homework & think you have one it takes to raise one of these wonderful little pups into a wonderful adult, then senior dog, please fill out an adoption application.
Follow the puppies from birth to now by becoming friends with "Imps Wisc" on Facebook.com - www.facebook.com/home.php#!/profile.php?id=100000109828639.
Note: Tuffy is located in Appleton, WI - and we will not fly this boy.
