Pebbles Lil' Peep Ivy
Baby | Female | Adopted
PUPPY ALERT!!! Pebbles Lil Peep 4 is an adorable puppy (DOB 2/25/19) who joined OBG with her mama, Pebbles, and three brothers. She will be ready for adoption on 4/22. Pebbles was found as a very pregnant stray in the middle of February. She was taken to a shelter where she gave birth. Pebbles and the puppies were moved to a foster home to following day. Pebbles appears to be a poodle-mix of some sort. DNA results on her and the puppies are pending (we expect them at the beginning of April).
Before applying for a puppy, please carefully consider the following issues. Will someone be home every 2-3 hours to let the puppy outside? Our general rule of thumb is that if a dog needs to be crated for more than 6 hours/day total, then that dog is the wrong one for the person's lifestyle. Please consider Puppy Kindergarten classes - it is never too early to start training. More dogs under the age of 3 years are euthanized for behavior issues than for illness. Puppies (and dogs) are expensive. It will cost over $1500 this year alone to care for her (vet check-ups, shots, spay/neuter, heartworm/flea and tick preventatives, food, and other supplies). We do not adopt puppies more than 1-2 hours outside of Washington DC.
