Meet Puppy Elise!
Elise is a 16 week old medium mixed breed puppy. She was found as a stray and is making a healthy comeback! She loves people and enjoys cuddling with dogs. Elise is a driven puppy who loves to tug and is food motivated. She would do best in a home with that has prevoius dog training experience - Elise would make a great sporting pup. Whatever her breed is, Elise would most likely love to be a sporting/working pup if matched with the right human. She is making great progress at potty training and is crate trained. She is doing very well with environmental socialization and general training. Elise could use a confident dog role model to ease into meeting new (hyper) dogs while out and about; With positive reenforcement & a human advocate, she will grow into a well socilaized dog.
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!
