This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Have we got a sweet treat for you! Meet the Cookie kids! These three little sugarplums appear to be a Border Collie/Springer Spaniel mix going on 4 months old. They will each need to learn the things that puppies need to learn: where to potty, how to walk on a leash, and crate time is a great time! (Potty training and crate training are currently in progress.) Attending obedience classes with your pup helps them gain confidence, do some socializing with new dogs and people, and lets the two of you get in some quality bonding time. Dogs of all ages benefit from mental stimulation, too - think puzzle toys and games. Being the breed mix that these pups are, classes, exercise and games will need to be an important part of their lives. A fenced yard is the safe, ideal place for your puppy to romp and play, but if not an option then plenty of daily leash walks with opportunities to play off-leash in a dog park are the next best thing.
Gingersnap "Ginger" Cookie, the last in the Cookie Jar, is a gorgeous tan with white on her muzzle that shoots up between her eyes. She can be quite fashionable in a purple sweater, give you that whimsical puppy look, or be goofy under a pile of pillows. She is very active and playful! She gets along with other dogs, her foster's children (ages 9 years and 14 years), and finds cats interesting. She can be timid in new places and is anxious in the car. She LOVES chew and squeaky toys, laptime, cuddling; and playing tug-of-war and bitey-mouth with the other dogs. All three puppies are food aggressive when fed in a group and so are currently being fed separately in crates.
Ginger would love to go home with an active forever family or individual who is willing to commit to bringing her from puppyhood to well-mannered canine adulthood. She knows it's a big job, especially with an active pup like her, but she's totally worth the effort! Fill out an application today for Gingersnap Cookie and prepare yourself for some sweet puppy lovings!
Cookie Litter Backstory: Their mom, Bella Cookie, was surrendered to a shelter and was pregnant. She gave birth to her puppies and three days later was scooped up by our rescue partner. Bella will also be available for adoption through SOS after her heartworm treatment is completed sometime in April.
