Finn is another baby patiently waiting for a family to choose him. He’s an adorable boy who has adjusted very well in his foster home. He is 8 weeks old, mom is a boxer mix. Finn is as sweet as they come and loves and needs chew toys. He is doing great with his canine foster siblings and is really enjoying playing with the youngest one. He is doing very well with housebreaking, he’s only had one accident since Saturday. He’s not the typical puppy when you take him out. He does his business first, then plays. You don’t have to stay out for an undetermined amount of time waiting for him to potty. He is also working on crate training.To apply use the link in the comments below. Other pets in your house must be current on vaccines, spay/neutered, and on prevention for fleas, ticks and heartworm disease. This is an absolute requirement. Finn needs all the hump day shares!! Please share!! ... See MoreSee Less

Coming Soon!These babies are not yet available as they are way too tiny. We still have concerns that they might not all survive. Folks, we can’t adopt our way out of a domestic animal overpopulation. There are more animals that need homes than places to put them. Irresponsible pet owners continue to not spay and neuter and we are left to clean up the mess. The reality is there is more mess than we can ever clean and pets are left to starve, suffer and die. We are drowning. Do your part. Be responsible. Spay, neuter, vaccinate and use preventatives. If you can’t do that, don’t get a pet. ... See MoreSee Less
