Story
Meet Crackle! This adorable Chi mix puppy was born into rescue and has only known love and security his entire life. His mom, Krispy, was found wandering on the side of the road in Chester, SC, and was very pregnant. Thankfully a Good Samaritan took her in and reached out to rescue for help. Krispy gave birth to three healthy puppies only two days later in the warmth and comfort of a foster home. The puppies were fortunate to be kept together as a family and had quality bonding time with their mom and siblings. They are currently being fostered in a home with kids, other adult dogs, and cats and are getting valuable socialization outside their pack. All three love to be held and are playful, happy, well-adjusted puppies. They’ve been weaned and already had their first wellness exams and series of shots. Crackle’s foster mom, Carmen, reports, "Crackle is a sweet, playful, and energetic puppy who loves the kitties and will regularly do zoomies around the house. He’s a confident boy and would do well as an only dog or part of a pack. " Worthy Dog will bring Crackle to the DC metro area on Saturday 6/1 once he’s completed his basic vetting including two rounds of puppy shots (distemper/parvo). He will be ready to go straight home to start his new life. Apply today if you have a puppy-friendly schedule and are ready to potty train and teach basic obedience skills to a young puppy!

Every person who fosters is directly responsible for saving the life of a dog, because we can only save as many dogs as we have foster families available to welcome them into their homes.
