Puppy Uku

Meet Uku!

Meet Uku, 2.5 month old female terrier mix.

Uku was relinquished due to her owners not being able to afford her lifelong care. We are committed to finding her a forever home that has the time & experience (or research) to properly raise a puppy.

This consists of willingness & preparation for continued puppy training, tons of exercise, and a commitment to "forever".

$450 tax deductible adoption donation includes: first DHPP, Bordetella vaccine, dewormer, microchip, flea/tick/heartworm prevention.

** she is being adopted out with a spay addendum stating the pet will be fixed by 6 months of age for an optional $150 reimbursement of your donation**

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)

-Preference to homes w/ yards (preferred, NOT required) Why? Puppies cannot go in public until they are 4 month old and complete their puppy shot series. Having a yard during this time greatly helps with play, potty training, and providing an outlet for your puppy to get outside. There are ways to work around this if you do live in an apartment setting but it takes some extra work and planning!

Currently being fostered in Lakeside, San Diego County, CA
