About

Meet Bonnie and Nathaniel

Location: Near Albany, NY. Bonnie & Nathaniel are approximately 8 weeks old. They are current on all preventives and age appropriate vaccines. They are available for adoption individually - they will not be placed together.    These pups are bold, confident, sweet, playful and energetic.     They appear to be a mix of breeds, certainly with cattle dog influence. They are quite little right now but expected to be medium sized when fully grown.    The pups have met a variety of people, they have been exposed to cats, and have interacted with a variety of adult dogs. They are great at road trips, riding quietly and safely in their crates. They are happy and curious on field trips in stores (they enjoyed riding in the shopping cart due to their current age & small size.)    They enjoy attention, running and racing, play and tugging with toys, as well as wrestling with one another.    Bonnie and Nathaniel are very smart and are crate trained and working on house training.   Cute as they are, these babies are still typical puppies. Did we mention they love to run and play, chew on things and generally wreak puppy havoc? Puppies need constant supervision and direction, and when they cannot be provided they need a safe confinement space (such as a crate or puppy play pen) to keep them out of trouble while they learn to be the best furry companions they can be.    These pups are ready to learn new things and are looking for families committed to raising them in the best way possible.     A puppy class is highly recommended, and not only gives you the skills to teach your pup to be the best he or she can be, but it also gives your puppy important socialization.    Two wonderful FREE books can be downloaded here: http://www.dogstardaily.com/free-downloads We highly recommend you read through both “Before You Get Your Puppy” and the “After You Get Your Puppy” so you can be as prepared as possible for your new family member.   If you are looking for a new lifelong best friend, please submit an application.     The pups are being fostered in NY state about 30 minutes south of Albany.     Please contact [email protected].
