Oh, the sweetness of maple...and Maple puppies are the absolute sweetest!
Momma Maple was very pregnant when she came into rescue and had her puppies in foster care. Maple appears to be a Treeing Walker Coonhound, papa is a mystery. These eight puppies are about two months old and currently just little bits, but since we don't really know about papa, they may end up being on the large side of medium or the small side of large when full grown. They are typical puppies and will need to learn all those things that puppies need to learn to grow up to be confident, well-mannered canine citizens: where to potty (working on this), the crate is their friend (working on this, too), walking politely on a leash, and that obedience is the best thing ever! It's especially important for puppies to attend obedience classes - it helps with confidence building, allows for some socialization with new dogs and people, and is a great chance for puppy and forever human(s) to get in some quality bonding time! A fenced yard is the ideal safe place for your puppy to romp and play, but if that's not an option then plenty of daily leash walks and opportunities to play off-leash in a dog park are the next best thing. Dogs of all ages benefit from mental exercise,too - think puzzle and treat dispensing toys, busy feeders and games. Puppies are a lot of work, time and commitment and it's so worth it! The Maples are all friendly pups who love to play and are great with other dogs and people of all sizes and ages. They haven't been introduced to kitty cats yet, so we don't know how interesting they would find them. They like toys and are all puppy-goofy!
This bit of Maple sweetness is Acorn! He's another little blue-eyed one and is also known as the "Hallelujah Puppy" because every time his caretaker picks him up, his arms go straight up in the air!
