Story
Meet Poppy! Poppy and her littermates were surrendered by their owner whose dog had an 'accidental' litter. Their mom was a medium size Beagle mix dog. We can't be sure who dad was but we think he must have also been a mystery mix. The pups all have unique coloring. We think they will grow to be medium to large dogs. At around 12 weeks of age they are ranging from 15-18 lbs. Their full grown size is just an estimate but possibly in the 50-60 lbs range. This litter of puppies is just lovely. They all have great temperaments, are well socialized and get along with all other animals. Our foster homes are doing their best to get them started on some basic training and socialization and it is important that this work continues. When adopting a puppy there is a golden opportunity to raise them well and teach them well so that they can grow up to be good canine citizens. We really want to find them families who will be dedicated to helping them learn and grow. From Poppy's foster: Poppy is a confident, sweet and affectionate puppy! She loves giving little face kisses, if you're into that. If not, she's quite happy to snuggle up in your neck, arms or lap and go to sleep. She's being fostered with her brother, Peanut, and she's been the more confident of the 2. She loves to run, play and wrestle as all puppies do, and she's quick to settle down for cuddling after play time is over. She's curious, but not afraid, of our two large 65lb dogs. She uses and responds to appropriate dog body language. They haven't been interested in playing with her, but she does hang out around them and seems to enjoy their company. When it comes to food and bedding, she is 100% a princess. Her preference is a very soft donut bed in front of a fireplace or heater. And when it comes to food, she believes that she should only eat if she is very hungry or if it's very high quality food or snacks. She'd also prefer to be hand fed, although she will eat out of her bowl if she's hungry. Poppy is a delightful, fun puppy who will make a great family member! Puppies are mouthy, bitey, naughty and sometimes smelly. They may eat your kid's toys and pee in your house. They may chew up your favorite shoes or get into the Halloween chocolate. They can't stay home alone too long and if you don't train them well they will grow from little gremlins into big problems. Puppies are a bit commitment! If you are ready for the challenge, we are here to support you. We have great resources, a great trainer and lots of moral support as you explore the wonders of puppy parenthood! All of the pups have received their first puppy vaccinations and are dewormed and chipped.They will be neutered or spayed between 8-12 months of age at our cost. Their adoption fee is $525. Applications can be sent to savinggreatanimals.org. We review them in the order received. All puppy meet and greets take place in the foster home. We cover the medical to prepare the pet for adoption and the adopt donations go directly to cover those costs and range from $295-$495. Thank you for stepping up to save a life!
