Story
Pal's Place recently rescued two of the sweetest, cutest, and most lovable little nuggets in town, and they're now looking for loving forever families. Swiss and Colby are precious lovebug littermates who were rescued from an overburdened animal control facility in rural Kentucky. They are currently in a loving foster home in Chicago, waiting to meet their forever families. Their mother is a purebred Boston Terrier; their father is unknown. The other half of their parentage may not be known, but whoever daddy is, he produced some adorable little fellas who have been described as looking like giant Boston Terriers or miniature Boxers! Weighing 35 pounds at 8 months of age, their expected adult size falls right in the middle of the size difference between these two breeds. Fantastic medium-sized pups perfect for urban or suburban dwelling! Swiss can be a bit bashful when meeting new people and is cautiously curious initially. A few gentle pats, kind words, and maybe a little yummy treat or two, and Swiss is fast friends within a few minutes! Like most puppies, he's energetic, playful, curious, and eager to explore the world around him. He'll thrive in an active household that can provide plenty of mental and physical stimulation throughout the day, plus the routine, guidance, and structure all developing puppies need to mature into the best adult dogs they can be. Swiss loves exploring on walks, wrestling with other pooches, collecting toys and bones, sunning himself on the porch, and snuggling with his humans. He is crate trained and making excellent progress with his housebreaking when on a regular schedule. Swiss has had a good start and a solid foundation but is still a young dog learning the ropes who just needs a little polishing work. Potential adopters should be willing and prepared to continue working with him on his housetraining and basic manners training. He's smart as a whip, very food-motivated, engaging, and eager to please, making training sessions with him enjoyable and fun. Swiss is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and started on monthly flea and heartworm. He's a healthy, happy fella ready to live life to the fullest. All he's missing is a family to share his love with. Interested in meeting this cutie patootie? Swiss is fostered in Chicago, and meetings can be scheduled by appointment once an adoption application is submitted and approved. His adoption fee is $475 and helps to cover his neuter and medical care needed to prepare him for adoption.
