Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Three pups came in together with generalized demodex. They healed and regained their coats, but the two females regressed recently after their spay and require medication. They will recover completely and demodex is not contagious. It is a suppressed immune system. It comes to them genetically and they outgrow any problems that stem from it. Born mid November 2012.
Here is a one week update from her foster home: Moe is a funny, silly, playful love bug!! She loves people and other dogs. She especially loves wrestling and chasing the ball. She is house trained and knows some basic commands. Her leash manners need some work because she’s so curious about everything she weaves from side to side, wraps around the person trying to walk her, wraps around other dogs walking with her, wraps around trees and poles. You get the picture. Moe is recovering from demodex. Most of her body is clear now but she still has a bit on her head and face. It doesn’t seem to be bothering her too much and she’s looking better and better every day. She's a lovely, lovely dog.
Puppies are cute as all heck but do come with the responsibility of providing training to raise them to be good canine citizens. While we start all our dogs on housebreaking and they do learn quite a bit from following the older dogs outside you can expect to put in the effort to continue the right behaviours and curb the incorrect ones. You will need to walk them often and praise them like they invented a way to turn rock into gold.
Adopters should also plan on taking a puppy training class or two. This is great socialization for your pup and can provide useful tips for a lifetime of ‘good dog’. Make sure you have a sense of humour with pups, they sometimes try really, really hard to please but get it all wrong and do the wrong thing when they meant to impress you with their cleverness. These humourous antics can include bringing you your underwear when you have company (hey you might need em), tipping the water bowl (the cat dared me), or tearing up the newspaper (maybe he disagreed with the editorial). Try to maintain a sense of humour while guiding puppy to the right ways of doing things, eventually he will be an adult dog and so much a part of your family that you couldn’t imagine life without him.
Pets can be flown to new homes. Application and homecheck required for all homes, the dog will go to the best home for the dog.
