Just look what the warm sea breezes brought us! PUPPIES!
Specifically the four pups that make up the Pacifica litter: Maui (the only boy), Moana, Sina and Tala (the smallest of the puppies)! These gorgeous little sea urchins appear to be a Shepherd mix about 2 months old. They were surrendered to one of our southern partner's shelter for unknown reasons (and we know nothing about their parents), but we were told that they did live inside the home of their previous owner. That being said, they are puppies and will need to learn "big dog" things: house training (which they are working on now) and walking on a leash. They already have crate training under their belts. These sweet, social, playful pups are great with other dogs, kitties and people, both big and little! They LOVE toys, playing fetch, barking like puppies do, and while they're still little enough, LAPS! A fenced yard is the ideal safe place for your little Pacifica to romp and play, but if that's not an option then daily leash walks and opportunities to play off-leash in a dog park or doggie daycare should help with the exercise they need. Don't forget to exercise their minds, too - think puzzle toys and games! Obedience class will be a breeze since these pups are smart and eager to please. These classes are the perfect opportunity to continue their socialization with new dogs and people, learn lots of cool stuff, and you get the chance for some quality bonding time with your newest family member! They are very Shepherd-like in their behavior and would do best with someone dedicated to working with them, and who will provide structured training, exercise and good leadership. Advanced classes such as nosework and agility would be lots of fun for them!
