Story
Snowball is a beautiful 4-month-old terrier mix puppy with a big personality and even bigger energy. This happy girl is lively, affectionate, and always ready for action. She loves to run, play, and interact with other dogs, and she truly thrives when she’s getting lots of attention from her people. Snowball enjoys being petted and often wants to be right in the middle of everything going on. Snowball is a high-energy puppy who will do best in a home where someone is around most of the day to keep her engaged, supported, and on a consistent routine. Because of her excitement level and ongoing puppy manners, a home with kids ages 8 and older only is required. She is quite vocal—especially when food or treats are involved—and is still learning polite treat-taking, as she can be a bit nippy while figuring that out. House training is coming along well: she holds it reliably in her crate with no accidents, though she does protest vocally when crated. Due to her age and small bladder, she needs potty breaks about every 3 hours and typically needs to go roughly one hour after eating. Snowball does show signs of excited or submissive urination, meaning she may dribble a small amount when overly excited or when picked up—this is common in young puppies and something she should outgrow with time and confidence. One fun fact about Snowball: she absolutely loves water! Splashing around is one of her favorite activities, and bath time is easy and stress-free as long as treats are involved. Overall, Snowball is a joyful, social, high-energy puppy who is still learning basic manners and bladder control but is making steady progress. With patience, structure, and lots of interaction, she will make a wonderful companion for an active, puppy-savvy home ready to keep up with her zest for life.
