Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We all know how we get that awww feeling when we see an adorable young puppy. They're so new and fresh with every possibility open to them. That's the case unless they're in a high-kill shelter that quickly runs out of space. We're so grateful for the efforts of our great Texas rescuer in saving Finnegan and her 2 siblings...she could see that all their temperaments were so kind and calm that she couldn't allow any of them to be euthanized. Finnegan is the kind of very endearing puppy that will lie in your arms and give a periodic loving kiss... couldn't be more loving. Finnegan was immediately brought to be vetted and then brought to a great Houston foster home to receive pure love and begin her education. It turns out that Finnegan, at only 8 weeks old and about 10 lbs. (expected by the vet to be approximately 40 to 50 lbs. when full-grown) is very calm and so very sweet that it's become a fun and rewarding experience for her foster mom. Finnegan is like a blank slate...open and curious about everything around her..she's incredibly entertaining when she gets going. If she continues this regimen of socialization that promotes positive relationships with other dogs and bonding with humans...Finnegan will become a well-adjusted and pleasant adult companion. Finnegan is an adorable Standard Schnauzer/Terrier mix puppy with a shining coat that speaks of good health - sorry about the sad shelter photo. We'll follow up with happier, puppy-adorable photos as soon as we receive them. Finnegan's calm and sweet demeanor is just who she is...she just appears to be more analytical than your average crazy puppy. If Finnegan is treated kindly with clear behavioral guidelines, she will become a well-adjusted dog who respects her people as her leaders. This is the kind of family we're searching for for Finnegan. We also feel it's very important that Finnegan is provided with exercise and mental stimulation. She would be overjoyed with hiking along Colorado paths and enjoying the sunshine. We'd like a family who spends lots of time at home and chooses to include a fuzzy companion in their activities. Finnegan can be taught that the car is a fun place that leads to great adventures out in the community and can therefore accompany her family just about anywhere. We can't determine at this point if Finnegan is a shedder...since she's a combination of a shedding and a non-shedding breed..it will be determined later which gene she picked up. Lots of sudsy baths and serious brushing combined with great nutrition will keep this puppy's coat healthy, silky-soft and as shed-free as possible.
Finnegan will be arriving on transport in Denver on 6/13. Applications are currently being accepted for this adorable and lovable puppy.
