Everyone has a favorite kind of cracker - ours just happens to be...puppies!
The Cracker girls are sure to become your favorite kind, too! These little sweethearts are outgoing and friendly, responsive to correction, and quick learners. Crate and potty training are in the works, leash training has not yet begun - right now it's more about playing, eating, and sleeping all day, every day! Enrolling in puppy obedience classes with their new hooman(s) will be an important step in continuing their socialization with new people and dogs, confidence building and learning basic commands. In their current southern foster home, they interact well, under supervision, with the resident dog and school-aged children. They have not been exposed to younger kids or kitty cats. They have been crated when transported in the car and were calm. They're not overly "barky" pups, but are vocal while playing. Mom appears to be some type of Shepherd mix, maybe Australian or German Shepherd. She is about 50 lbs., so these girls may end up being on the large end of medium sized.
 
Zesta Cracker is one of the four girls in this litter. She's mostly white with a golden glow, but half her face is brown and she has a brown patch on her back and under her right ear. Are you able to make that commitment of time, energy and patience that's needed to raise a puppy? It's not an easy job, but Zesta promises she'll be worth all that effort! Fill out an application today and let her know you totally agree!
 
Cracker Puppies Backstory: The owner contacted our Arkansas rescue partner for help with puppies and possibly other dogs - exact number was unclear. These four puppies were outside before cold weather and not in the best of circumstances. It was arranged for immediate move into foster. The puppies were thin, dehydrated and no doubt would not have survived the looming winter storm where they were. They have been thriving in foster, have quickly gained weight, and began using the litter box with alfalfa pellets almost immediately.

**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.
