And straight from East Egg...the Gatsby Litter!
Well okay, maybe not exactly from East Egg, but these four adorable, itty-bitty mini-muffins are sure to make you go, "awwwwww!" They appear to be a Chihuahua mix about 3 months old. They are all doing well with potty pads, but have not yet begun crate training or learning to walk on a leash. They're great with other dogs, kids and kitty cats, too! They've been fine in the car on the short trips they've taken to the vet's. They're eager to please, smart and obedient for their age, so they should each do well in obedience class. It's a great place to continue socialization with new dogs and people, build confidence, learn lots of cool stuff, and get in some quality bonding time with his or her new human(s). Though a fenced yard is the ideal safe place for puppies to romp and play, if this isn't an option then daily leash walks and lots of playtime will take care of your pup's exercise needs. Dogs of all ages benefit from mental exercise, too - think puzzle toys and games.
Jitterbug is one of the black and white pups and the only girl. She's so cute with her four white paws and white chest - and the left side of her nose is a pretty pink. She's friendly with new people and interested in new dogs and places. She likes toys and laps, can be a little vocal, and like most puppies, a bit goofy at times. She is quite the character with her adorable personality! She and her littermates were rescued by one of our southern partners from the county shelter. We don't know how they ended up there, but we do know that they're each destined for a wonderful forever home! If you'd love that home to be yours, fill out an application today for Jitterbug Gatsby. There's LOTS of LOVE in this little package!

**Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
