This beautiful set of 6 puppies were found outside Trinity Animal Hospital in an enclosed container. The vet staff there immediately opened the container to find these precious puppies. Upon there surprise they immediately reached out to one of their clients who just so happened to be one of our biggest volunteers. The staff asked if she would help as they are just a vets office had no way of housing them or continually caring for them. This volunteered agreed to house them and help provide them care, she has had them vetted with shots and dewormer and full check ups. They are typical puppies who love to play outside, they love other dogs, and especially humans. Livi Jo is one of the best cuddlers I've ever met, and Iggy is full of the best puppy kisses. Olaf and Chandler both have one of the most laid back personalities.

The adoption fee covers the spay/neuter surgery, rabies vaccination, basic vaccinations, microchipping, and care. All basic vaccinations will be current at the time of adoption.
A potential adopter is required to fill out an adoption application which includes information regarding their home environment, current/prior pets, etc. We also require them to provide at least 2 references. A volunteer will review the application, contact the references, and provide information regarding the specific pet they are interested in adopting. If we receive a favorable response when we contact the references, the potential adopter is then required to complete the actual adoption contract. We encourage communication by email. Due to our limited staff, our office is only open part-time, but we will return all phone calls as soon as possible.
