ELMER FUDD (CAME IN WITH YOSEMITE) PUPPIES GALORE - 6 months old Two peas in a pod these two puppies are active and super fun! They arrived as strays so we’ll tell you what we know about them including the fact that they need some practice walking on the leash next to you. I learned this quickly esp with Elmer Fudd who kept cross crossing in front of me tripping me up. Both pups love to chase tennis balls and even bring them back to you! They both default to a SIT when they know treats are around and Elmer even gives his paw! Puppies can definitely push boundaries as they learn and navigate life in homes with families and routines. Please please be ready to deal with possible puppy behaviors including chewing, mouthiness, whining, barking, pulling on the leash and accidents in the home. Please don’t expect perfect! Training, time, attention, walks, playtime and exercise will be your life. If you’re ready to deal with puppy energy and puppy silliness and puppy training, come on out to meet these two rascals! They are currently in a back kennel so if you don’t see them, please just ask!
