Story
Meet Bert Bert is an 18 week old fun loving, energetic Pembroke Welsh Corgi. He is 14.4 lbs ,loves toys and playing with all pups in his new pack. He is doing well on potty training, prefers to sleep on a dog bed, but is ok being in a crate. He will be up to date on all age appropriate vaccinations and his neuter will be included in his adoption fee when he is old enough. He loves to snuggle and responds quickly to corrections. He is a puppy, so will need a patient adopter willing to work with him to bring out his full potential. If you are interested in Bert, please fill out an adoption application at tinypawssmalldogrescue.org. If you have questions, reach out to his foster mom, Bonnie ,at soderlundb@yahoo.com.

Story
Meet Emma , Emma is a 4 lb sweet pug full of love and kisses. She may be tiny, but don’t let her size fool you. She will wrestle and then snuggle with any size pup, anywhere, anytime. Emma loves playing with toys but would truly rather play with your shoe laces or feet as a moving target is much more fun. If she starts spinning you know she needs to go outside to go potty. She is intrigued by the bell by the back door but looks at it more as another toy. While Emma plays hard, she just as quickly falls asleep in your arms or at your feet. She will be up to date on all age appropriate vaccinations and her spay is included in her adoption fee when she is old enough. If you interested in this spunky little lady, fill out an adoption application at tintpawssmalldogrescue.org. If you have any questions, reach out to her foster mom, Bonnie, at soderlundb@yahoo.com An adoption fee will be required. DATCP: # 274478
