Puppy Mudpaw

Meet Mudpaw!

2 month Aussie German Shepherd (Best Guess) Mix. Estimated 70-75 lbs full grown

Mudpaw is a big boy who loves his littermates and would do wonderful with a well-behaved dog role model in the home. Active humans ready for herding mixed breed dogs a must. He is currently in a foster home w/ an adult dog and children. Like all puppies, Mudpaw will need continued socialization, postiive exposure and owners committed to relationship building, bonding and training.

$550 donation includes first shots, dewormed, microchip w/ free lifetime registry, and neuter agreement addendum. Adopters are responsible for finishing potty shot series and continuing on monthly preventatives

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!
