Story

Itty is estimated to be around 3 months old and a possible Hound/Lab mix who weighs around 12 lbs. She is an adventurous and fearless girl who always has to be in the middle of all the action. If you're sweeping, she's wants to “help” and if you’re moving clothes from the washer to the dryer, she's in between your feet. Itty has a deformed front leg that doesn’t appear to bother her. It has been examined by a vet and determined it may be a birth defect. Most of the time, you can barely notice it and it certainly doesn’t slow her down. Itty loves other dogs and people including children and will make a wonderful family companion! Itty is up to date on vaccines her age and microchipped. Our pups come with one month of free pet insurance when you adopt. If you’re interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website at https://packleadersrescue.com/adoption-application/
