Here's what the humans have to say about me:
If you are at least 18 years old and everyone in your household is on board with adopting a puppy, CALL 651-645-4370 between 7:00 AM and 9:30 PM and we will return your call within 24 hours. If you elect to contact us via e-mail it may take several weeks for us to get back to you. Renters must provide proof that you are allowed to have a puppy.
Cinnamon is a little girl whose Momma Coco is a German Shepherd/Basset Hound X and we think Cinnamon's dad was likely an Australian Shepherd. She came from the Standing Rock Indian reservation.
Mom weighed 55# and we anticipate that Cinnamon will be a bit smaller, 35-45#. Cinnamon is a robust, healthy puppy who has had the best of loving care. She hangs out with the resident dog, some visiting puppies and kids who like to hold and play with puppies. She is learning two walk on a leash and has started going outside to potty. She is not housebroken yet but is beginning the process. She has been confined in a crate and she doesn't mind, just curling up and going to sleep. She keeps her crate clean and dry but so far has only been crated for a couple of hours at a time.
The first 4 months are when puppy learns the social skills needed to be a skilled dog in dealing with other dogs and a good citizen in the human world. Her adopter should be committed to getting puppy into lots of new and different human social situations, hearing vacuums, trucks, and rattling garbage cans, meeting people who are clapping, laughing, with hats, tools, bikes and skate boards. AND puppy needs many opportunities to meet and greet dogs of all shapes, sizes and dispositions. Just sharing a home with another dog is not as much doggie socializing as puppy needs. If good canine social skills are not learned and maintained during these early months, it will be very difficult to ever master them. Puppy play dates, trips to the pet store, puppy socialization classes and later, obedience classes and trips to the off leash park are ideal learning opportunities. If all this doggie time and involvement seems like a good idea, you are up for a puppy! As always, a tired dog is a good dog.
Cinnamon was vet checked, wormed and had her first vaccination. She will need two more routine vaccinations and rabies at the owner’s expense. Puppies adoption fee of $325 includes the cost of the required spay if it is done by the PUP vet. PUP does place dogs outside the metro area but a firm plan must be in place for her spay. We do not ship.
