To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application   HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see   HERE Age: 2 months (as of 11/30/25) Weight: 5 - 6 lbs (as of 11/7/25) This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. You’ll be talking about the Holstein pups until the cows come home! Meet Ferdinand, a delightful puppy with a heart full of joy. Ferdinand and his brothers Apple, Earl, Duke, and Bruno and sisters Nellie, Elsie, Bessie, and Dottie can’t wait to meet you! We are thinking these sweet playful pups are a Border Collie mix. This goofy, gentle soul brings laughter and warmth to everyone around him. Ferdinand's intelligence shines through in his quick learning and clever play. He adores playing with kids, making friends with other dogs, and is interested in cats in a playful way. His playful spirit and sweet nature make every day brighter. Ferdinand is described as a calm, observant, and chill pup. Being just puppies, the Holstein litter will have so much to learn! They'll need house training, crate training and will need to learn to walk on a leash. We strongly recommend that all our dogs attend obedience classes because you get to learn commands together, and it offers an opportunity for confidence building and socialization for the dog. Ferdinand would be a perfect addition to any loving family looking for a bundle of fun and affection. Bring Ferdinand home, or one of his littermates, and experience the boundless love and joy he brings!
