Elroy- ADOPTED!

Ryder now named Elroy, has gone to live with a Coonhound loving man named Chris, and his Coonhound x Lab girl Astro (note the Jetson's theme!). He will be living the good life, frolicking along the nearby beaches, around on the North Shore mountains, and being very well-loved!

Ryder is the biggest boy, and a very sweet chunky pup at that. He thrives on attention, and is quite smart. He will be ready to go to his new home on or after Dec. 27th- at which point he will be 8 weeks old, neutered, and ready for a loving family of his own. His family has ensured that Ryder is very well-socialized in preperation for him becoming an amazing adult dog.

Ryder and his siblings were brought to the vet to be euthanized after their mom was hit by a car and killed. They were only a week old, and their owner was unwilling to put the work in to raise them himself. Thankfully local foster mom Kristen stepped up to take these 4 in, and then Pam and Tracey stepped in to raise them. Not a small feet when it means bottle feeding them every couple of hours!

Thanks to such great care, they are all thriving, and are all named after their will to survive. Mom of these pups was a Rottweiler, Dad was apparently a hound. One of the pups looks like a rottie (being adopted by his foster parents), the other 3 boys look like Bluetick Coonhounds, and are in need of loving homes. Two very different breeds with very different personalities! Please research both breeds before applying for one of these cuties. Here are a couple of links to get you started!

They are currently 3 weeks old, and will not be ready until for their new homes until after they reach 8 weeks, around Dec. 27th. We are currently accepting applications for them in preparation of them being ready for their new homes.

Before applying, also research whether you are ready for a puppy. They are a ton of work! They eat, poo, chew, cry, sleep for a couple of minutes, and then do it all over again. then be prepared for this puppy to need tons of training in preparation for him becoming a large breed adult dog that will live for the next 15 or so years.

These pups will be neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, deflead, microchipped, and tattooed prior to adoption. Their adoption is $200 to help cover these costs. It is mandatory that these guys attend puppy and basic obedience classes to ensure a well-behaved and happy family member!
