You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Chaquita is one of 17 puppies we have rescued this year from a ranch in Central Texas. The puppies were all born in the pasture to working livestock guardian moms. We don't know which dogs are the parents of Chaquita and her sisters because the puppies were found huddled together with no mom nearby. The ranch has numerous adult Akbash dogs of both sexes, at least one Great Pyrenees male and at least one Anatolian Shepherd male, so puppies could be a mix of any of these. Since the puppies in this litter all have solid white coats -- some short and some fluffy -- we think it's a reasonable guess that the parents are likely to be an Akbash mom and Great Pyrenees dad.
Estimated date of birth is 1/11/2025. These puppies were moved out of the pasture at a very young age and have been raised as family pets, NOT as future working livestock guardians. They have been started on crate-training, but they are still learning, so you'll need to be patient and prepared to continue their house/potty-training and leash-training.
Chaquita and her sisters have had their first two rounds of vaccinations and will be going back soon for their rabies vaccination. They can be adopted with our provisional adoption agreement, which requires puppies to be spayed before the adoption is finalized. This is not negotiable as it is required by Texas state law.
If you're interested in adopting Chaquita or another one of our puppies, please
submit an application and mention the puppy by name.
And in case you're curious, Chaquita and her siblings are named after waterfalls. Chaquita Falls can be found in Hill Country State Natural Area in Bandera TX.
