Age: 2 months (as of 2/25/2025) Location: RI This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Introducing the Cereal Litter – five adorable girls, Honeycomb, Pebbles, Chex, Cheerio, and Cocoa Puff; and two handsome little dudes, Apple Jack and Lucky Charm! These puppies were born on Christmas Day and are believed to be a Bassett Hound mix. This aisle of cereals comes from an active foster home where they been living (since birth) with three adults, 4 other dogs, and their Momma Marigold Cereal. Cocoa Puff is an affectionate cutie who is sweet, intelligent and even-tempered. She loves playing with the other pups in her litter and enjoys a chew toys and squeaky toys. She loves running around, playing bitey-mouth, and chase with her siblings. She’s also down to chill with some naps and cuddles with her people! You can watch a movie or just watch her run in her dreams. Puppies are a lot of work and require a strong commitment to teaching them obedience, socializing with other dogs and people, playing with them and loving them to pieces. Being so young, Cocoa Puff would love to find a family who has the time and patience to raise a puppy; she has so much to learn! She'll need house training, crate training and will need to learn to walk on a leash. We strongly recommend that all our dogs - and especially puppies - attend obedience classes because you get to learn commands together, it offers an opportunity for confidence building and socialization for the dog, and it also helps to strengthen that ever-important bond between the dog and his human family. It’s lots of fun, too! If you're ready to make that awesome commitment to bring up Cocoa Puff, then fill out an application today! Wet puppy kisses and warm, furry snuggles are awaiting! Medical Note: A littermate of this dog is being treated/has been treated for demodectic mange, a non-contagious skin condition. As there is thought to potentially be a genetic component to predisposition to this condition, this dog has been preventatively treated though does not currently show any bald patches and/or thin fur in places. Please note that demodex can flare up in any dog in times of stress (e.g., transport, transition to a new home, change in food, etc.). As such, the adopter is advised to discuss this condition and best next steps with their veterinarian. SOS recommends that dogs with a history of demodectic mange be kept on regular NexGard or Bravecto for flea/tick prevention for at least 3 months after adoption for adults or until 18 months of age for puppies. Please see here for more information on demodectic mange, and talk with your Adoption Counselor about this condition. Please check with your vet if you have any questions or concerns about this medical history. An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.
