Story
Chip joined us before his eyes were even open - along with his momma (Cookie) and siblings. They had been dropped off at our local shelter and we quickly said yes when they asked if we would take this adorable family! Chip is a thoughtful pup who takes a moment to absorb his surroundings, then it is on! He loves to wrestle with his siblings, steals toys with glee and chomps on any snack that's offered. Chip was born October 4th and while mom is only 42 lbs, we think his mystery daddy was bigger so we are estimating 50-60 lbs for his adult size.

Story
Churro came to us before her eyes were even open, along with mom (Cookie) and her siblings. They were left at our local shelter and we quickly said yes when they asked if we could take them! Churro has the silliest ears and sweetest disposition; she loves to play with toys, ideally while in your lap. While mom is only 42 lbs, we think daddy might have been bigger so we are estimating her adult size to be between 50-60 lbs - but she will always be a lap dog! She is looking for a home with the time and patience to train her on how to be a well-mannered family member. Please send in an application at www.waggingtailsrescue.org

Cheese is one of Cookie's puppies who came to us from our local shelter before their eyes were even open. She has grown up in a loving foster home and is a social girl who loves to be in your lap. Cheese has been socialized with lots of people, other dogs and cats, loving everyone that she meets. She was born at the beginning of October and is estimated to be in the 50-60 lb range when fully grown. She is all puppy and will need a home with the time to train her on her good girl manners.
