My story

Upton, Neutered male, 6-months-old, 24-lbs

If you’re looking for a companion and playmate, Upton is the one! He has a jolly nature, super playful and is aimed to please. He adores interacting with young kids, loves belly rubs and giving kisses. He’s a fast learner and very food motivated, already mastered basic commands and walks well on leash. He gets along with other dogs and is good with cats too. Please watch his videos to learn how much funs this boy can share with your family if he’s given a chance.

Meet Upton!
The rescuer was informed one night that a stray dog delivered five puppies in the vicinity of a factory where she worked. Even though the factory workers showed kindness toward the stray family and kept the mother dog well fed, but the factory owner was not happy about the intruders. He ordered that they be removed within two days or the animal control would be summoned.
Before the rescuer was ready to take action, all five puppies were taken to the high-kill shelter, only the mother dog escaped. Knowing that the puppies would not survive without their mother at this young age, the rescuer pled for custody of the babies and managed to trap their mother in the meantime. Strong bonding between the mother and her babies finally overcome the fear, the mother dog came back looking for her kids. For the next two months the mother nursed her puppies until they were all strong and healthy and ready to be adopted. Upton is one of the five lively and healthy puppies!

Upton is the most playful and loving pups among his siblings. We’re looking for a family that understands the responsibilities of raising a puppy. Please give Upton a loving home so he can enjoy a happy and safe dog life!
