They are mixed-breed puppies, so their adult size is unknown. Their mom is a terrier/hound mix and weighs about 21 pounds, which may give you some idea of their potential size, but there are no guarantees.These little ones are both active and fun, and they have been around older children. A home with a securely fenced yard is preferred so they have plenty of room to play and explore.The puppies are currently in a foster home, so they do not attend regular adoption events.

Ezzie and her litter mates were found abandoned on the streets. They were rushed to an animal control facility that reached out to us for help. Puppies are at risk for illnesses and emotional damage in such environments and our foster group rushed in to help.
Ezzie is sweet and a little shy. She would love to have another dog as a playmate and mentor.

The pups are good with cats, kids, and other dogs. Adoption fee is $400 with a $100 refund when they are spayed/neutered at 6 months old. Puppies are around 14 - 16 weeks old. We suspect they are Boxer mixed with Shepherd and possibly Lab - but this is simply a guess.

Adopting a puppy in Kentwood
Puppies usually go to their new homes from about eight weeks old, once they're weaned and have had their first vaccinations. Most rescues spay or neuter them before adoption, or include it in the fee.
Ask the rescue how big the puppy is expected to grow and which breeds they think are in the mix, so you can plan for the dog they'll become.
Puppies need a lot of your time: house-training, a few minutes of training every day, several small meals, and someone home often enough to let them out. A puppy class is a good way to start.
