Florence is a gentle soul, who loves to cuddle and play with her humans and dog friends. She’s in a foster home with children, 2 dogs, a rabbit and has also been tested with cats. She’s very gentle with children, and loves to snuggle up and have pets but would do best in a home with respectful children 10 years or older because of her larger breed size and gentle demeanor.
Florence is still a pup and would do best in a home with a confident, friendly dog who would like a playful companion. Tug of war is her favorite, as well as playing with squeaker toys and sticks. She’s crate trained and will go in her crate when she’s tired, or feeling nervous. She also uses a bell when she wants to go outside.
Florence would thrive in a home that has a flexible work schedule and time to continue her training. She’s treat motivated, leashed trained and learning all about new objects, sounds and smells. She loves to explore her surroundings and is curious and alert when outside. Her foster mom is running with her and she will probably be a very good hiking companion when she gets older.
Florence is looking for a wonderful owner who will continue to help build her confidence!
Florence is currently being fostered in Sacramento, CA

$375 adoption donation - vetted, up to date on age appropriate shots, dewormed, fecal tested/treated, flea tick treated & available w spay agreement addendum by/before 6 months. They are all microchipped with lifetime registry.
Ideal home will:
Have the time to commit to all things puppy! Please note puppies do not do well left alone long hours and need to be let out every 2-3 hours for potty. Long work schedule where the puppy would be left alone for 7+ hours can be difficult on most puppies and young dogs.
Solid plans for puppy socialization, positive exposure and continued training + relationship building -- commitment not just to puppyhood but to a lifetime of love, care, companionship and vetting. HFP advocates for Positive Reinforcement only for young puppies and training that focuses less on "obedience" and more on confidence building, relationship building and consent training.
Preference to homes w/ friendly & well-trained dog role models (preference, NOT required)
Interested in adopting?
1. Please complete our online form at heartsforpawsrescue.com/adoption-application
2. We will respond in 1-3 days for a call!
3. If it sounds like a potential match for you and the dog of interest, we will promptly set up a meet and greet at the foster home
Please note we are a foster-based rescue meaning our dogs are in individual foster homes throughout sac and the bay. For this reason we may only be able to schedule meets for one dog at a time (or litter). The average timeline between app submission and a meet and greet is 3-5 days. Please only submit an application for a specific dog if you are ready to adopt that animal within a week's time.
