History: Baby Fluff is a handsome little fella who arrived to rescue recently and immediately warmed our hearts. He is officially ready to start his journey in finding his forever home and hopes to find them soon!
A Note from the Foster: Baby fluff is seriously the fluffiest puppy you'll ever meet. His coat is extremely soft and smooth. This will likely mean he'll need a good groomer as he gets older!
He is currently less than 5lbs but that doesn't stop him from having a BIG appetite! He absolutely LOVES food; kibble, canned food, treats, you name it and he'll likely want to eat it! But he's been good (so far!) about only eating what he's supposed to eat.
He also loves to play and chew on some good chew toys, I'd imagine a kong would be his most favorite thing! But he likes lots of different toys and playing with his brother. He is at the teething stage, so we're working hard on redirecting with toys as he does bite at your hands and fingers! He is slowly improving, but the teething stage can last some time so be mindful if you have young children that this is a work in progress.
He hasn't met kids yet, but other than the teething, I think he would be great with kids. He's a super happy little boy that absolutely loves attention and to play.
Aside from his brother, he has not been around other dogs or cats, so I can't say how he would be around them. However, I think he'd enjoy having a dog that would play back with him or cuddles with him, otherwise he would be fine as the only dog as long as you promise him lots of attention and snuggles!
He is only 2.5 months old so he is still working on crate and potty training. He and his brother were sick upon arrival to rescue, so he is used to being in a gated area in an extra room vs in a crate. He's been amazing at using a faux grass tray for potty training, but needs a little more training with where he pees. But I think he will transition quickly to go outside, especially when you give him treats for going potty outside!
He is quiet at night and when I'm not in his room (however he does have his brother with him). Transitioning to a covered kennel vs a gated area with his brother will be a change for him, but I think he'll adjust pretty well after a couple days with treats and learning he can potentially have more one on one time with his people and not have to compete with his brother.
Overall, he's a happy, healthy little puppy working on all the puppy things ❤ but give him a safe and loving home and he will be your loyal companion!
Adoption Fee: Our adoption fees typically vary from $510-$1260 + tax. Our coordinator will be in touch with you with specific information during the application processing. For more information on where our animals come from, here is some additional information. Thank you!
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
