Juniper, Scout & Summit — a call came in about puppies being given away outside a market to people living on the streets. When we arrived, two were found left behind in a bin. We kept searching and discovered a third puppy, barely hanging on, tucked underneath a pile of trash. There were five puppies in total, but sadly we were only able to find three. Their mom was given away as well — one of the many heartbreaking realities of rescue. But these three are safe now, and their story gets to have a happy ending.
Juniper, the little girl, is full of life. She’s playful, spirited, and brings the fun wherever she goes.
Scout, the brown boy, is the most reserved of the bunch. He takes a little time to warm up, but his sweet and gentle personality shines through.
Summit, the black boy, seems wise beyond his years. He has a calm, mature presence and almost takes on the role of the older brother, quietly looking after his siblings.
These three went from being discarded to being cherished. They’re ready to leave their difficult beginning behind and find families who will love them for the rest of their lives.
Bold, comic and stubborn, bred to go down a badger hole alone. Devoted to their people and often quite vocal.
Low to moderate — walks on flat ground and gentle play.
Great apartment size. Protect the back — discourage stair and furniture jumping, and use a harness rather than a collar.
