BIO:
Bonjour! I'm Maurice, a happy-go-lucky little guy looking for a family of my very own. My hobbies include playing peek-a-boo with my doggy foster brothers, bouncing around the house Tigger-style, cuddling with my foster mom, and meeting new friends on walks. I may be only three months old, but I've already mastered tricks that will make you say "ooh là là!" I sit with perfection, I'm great on my leash, and I'm getting the hang of giving paw. I'm crate trained at night, and I'll even put myself to bed when I'm getting sleepy. Plus, I'm getting better at potty training every day. Oh, and if you ask me to "go to my spot?" C'mon-easy!

I'm on the smaller side-I was the runt of my litter-but I've got a big voice to make up for it. I'd love to chat with you throughout the day, especially if we see a bird! What are those things, anyway?

Did I mention I'm an excellent car passenger? I'd love to join you on a road trip or a jaunt about town-especially if a trip to Starbucks for a Pup Cup is involved. I also love going on rides to visit my kiddo friends-human kiddos (babies included) and puppies alike, I'm a friend to all. I've never met a cat before, but I've heard they're nice. I'm one smart cookie, so I'm looking for a family who will keep up my training and sign me up for classes. I'd also love some dog (or human!) siblings to play with. If you're an active family looking for a fun, cuddly guy, look no further! Au revoir!

Puppies are cute, cuddly and looking for a family to call their own. They need an owner who is home often, and willing to help with training, socializing and housebreaking. They need to be let out often so they can learn to go potty outside. Training is required, and we will need to see proof from adopters that puppies have been signed up for classes. They need an owner to be committed to them forever, and in return they will reward you with a lifetime of cuddles, kisses and love. Sound like a commitment you're ready to make? Please fill out an adoption application and Fetching Tails Foundation will be in touch soon!

If you'd like to adopt this dog, please get started by filling out a complete application (incomplete submissions cannot be sent.) Please note that while we take time to learn as much as we can about each dog in our care as possible, our bios are written from current observations. Though we do our best to share as much information as possible about each dog we care for, we are unable to make any guarantees on the future health or temperament of your adopted dog. Most dogs in our care come with unknown pre-rescue history, and information pertaining to breed and age are often educated guesses.
