Velvet

Meet Velvet. The DNA results below are of her mom. PLEASE read the entire post. Lots of info.      We had the most beautiful litter of puppies and Velvet is the last pup left!. They were abandoned behind a shop when the puppies were just days old right before Christmas. The foster mom gave them all holiday names, and we called them “The holiday Pups “. Their Mama is a mix of chi/Shih Tzu + a few other breeds. She is 11 pounds and she was an excellent mama.        Velvet is a typical puppy and loves to play, run in the yard, get into things, etc…. He is mostly potty trained, but still uses Pee pads…..at night. Velvet is very loving, but has grown very attached to his foster family. He will need some time to adjust to a new home. Velvet does like other dogs, especially to play , so he would love a companion and we are looking for a home with other dogs. He absolutely loves the yard so this would be nice but because we think they will be small (based on mama’s size) it isn’t necessarily mandatory. They also require attention and can’t be left home alone for long hours. I know people work, however, it just isn’t fair to a puppy to leave a puppy home alone for eight hours or more.     The adoption fee is $400 which includes his completed series of 4 DHPP Vaccines, 2 dewormings and microchip. You will be responsible for following the vaccine schedule for other vaccines with your vet. You’ll also be responsible for spay/neuter when the time comes. We recommend a minimum of six months old, but some vets even recommend longer and we will leave this to you and your vet. This is not included in the adoption fee and you will also be required to pay a $100 refundable spay/neuter deposit that will be returned to you when the baby is spayed/neutered. If you are interested in one of these babies, please fill out an application on our website. That is the first step. Someone will get back to you within a few days. No calls or inquiries. We will respond to your application as soon as we can. dachshundsandfriends.org
