My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Little Cajun is only little for right now! He is one of two boys in a litter of 3 puppies (brother Creole and sister Mardi listed separately) who were born and raised their first 5 weeks in the Louisiana Bayou underneath a chicken coup living with dogs, chickens and goats. Their mother is a purebred Great Pyrenees, and we believe dad must have been a Catahoula Leopard Dog based on their eyes and markings. Cajun has the most gorgeous deep blue eyes! As of March 20, Cajun is 7 weeks old. He will be available for adoption beginning April 1. He is likely to get very large, and so will not be suitable in an apartment or townhome.

Prior to adoption Cajun will have been dewormed, received two rounds of vaccines including one bordatella, and two parvo-distemper vaccines, and will be neutered and microchipped. He will have received a clean bill of health

We are seeking adopters for these puppies who have large breed experience and some familiarity with Great Pyrenees and Catahoula temperaments. Right now these babies are soft, cute, and cuddly, but will grow to be upwards of 75-100 lbs, possibly more, so positive reinforcement training and leadership is essential! They will make excellent family dogs but need to be properly socialized to ensure they do not become overprotective. These puppies definitely need a large fenced yard and ideally an active family.

Cajun is described by his foster family as a typical playful puppy who doesn't want to be far away from you. He sleeps a lot and eats, and plays! He is snuggly and cuddly as well. He is working on becoming pee pad trained, and beginning housebreaking has started. Cajun is being fostered in a home with many other dogs but no cats, so he is used to dogs but has never met cats. However, with a dog-friendly cat, he should be fine because he is so young. Cajun would prefer another confident canine brother or sister he can learn from, as he left his mother sooner than we would have liked.

These puppies will NOT be available for viewing unless we receive a completed application and have checked references prior to meeting, simply because the demand for them will be so great. Patience with our process is expressly requested due to high demand and only a few volunteers.

Interested adopters please email MJsAnimalSanctuary@gmail.com to request an adoption application. Adopters subject to reference check, vet reference (MUST have prior vet history), home visit(s) and meet and greet(s). Adoption fee applies. Get your applications in quickly, as these babies will not last long!
