My story

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

🐧 Madagascar Penguin Puppies 🐧
Kowalski, Private, Rico & Skipper are ready for their next big adventure—wherever life takes you!

These four adorable boys are sweet, social, and full of puppy charm. A couple of them have a cute little underbite, and they all have scruffy coats—but they’re not expected to be long-haired.

We were told they may be a Labrador Retriever/Husky mix, though genetics like to keep us guessing. Kowalski sports striking black and tan coloring with eyebrow markings, giving off Rottweiler/Shepherd/Doberman vibes—so who really knows? 😄

At 12 weeks old, they each weigh around 14 lbs, and based on their current size, we expect them to grow to 50+ lbs. We never met mom or dad, so this estimate is based on what we were told and their growth so far.

✨ They’re ready to go home now!
They’ll just need to return mid-February for their neuter appointment.

🩺 Medical & Care Info:
✔️ Vaccinated
✔️ Flea & tick treated
✔️ On heartworm prevention
✔️ Microchipped & neutered before adoption

💲 Adoption fee: $300

Their adoption process

1.

Visit the Facility and Find a Pet

We do allow walk ins to meet animals they may want to adopt. We do not allow people to walk through the kennels we bring the animal to you.

2.

Submit Application

Not all animals need an application but some may need one due to having special needs or not being spayed or neutered yet.

3.

Take the Pet Home

You can usually take a pet home same day on foster or adoption. Foster is for a week for compatibility. Not all animals qualify for foster

Additional adoption info

Once an animal is chosen, you will pay the adoption fee via cash or card. The card does charge a fee to use. If an animal is not spayed or neutered yet we will schedule it with one of our vets or you may schedule it at your own vet and receive a reimbursement of $100 for dogs and $60 for cats. All animals are microchipped except barn cats.
