Meet our Sweet Fall Litter — 7 babies and mama + auntie came to us from a terrible situation in Central California. Three adult females were kept on metal chains and all got pregnant from the neighbor dog. The family agreed to surrender the family to us so that we could get them vetted and find them amazing families where they would never know what it’s like to live with a heavy chain on their neck day in and day out. No, these dogs only deserve the best!
Mama is a dutch shepherd cattle dog terrier or maybe boxer (best guesses), and daddy is unknown. The puppies will probably be around 50-60 lbs full grown and mama is close to 50 lbs. Auntie sadly lost all her puppies before coming to the rescue but has done an amazing job helping raise these little ones. They are playful, happy, and each have their own individual personalities!
Looking for homes with: 1) experience raising dogs and or willingness to sign up for puppy training classes 2) time to dedicate to puppy training, daily exercise, continued positive exposure and socialization to animals, people and places, and lifelong companionship 3) preference to home owners with fenced yard 4) preference to homes with riendly dog role models in the home.
