HOW TO MEET THIS ANIMAL:
LOCATION: Foster home
ADOPTION COORDINATOR: Lani
lanihtar@gmail.com
ADOPTION FEE: $495 or $595. Ask me about what this includes.
ESTIMATE WEIGHT FULL GROWN: mom is 51 pounds, but we suspect dad might have been larger, as some of the pups are quite chonky. Twyla is on that larger side for her litter.
KNOWN WITH DOGS: Twyla is very social and loves to play with her mama and siblings. She is also wonderful with the other adult dog in her foster home.
KNOWN WITH CATS: Twyla hasn't met a cat yet, but typically young puppies can be successfully socialized with feline friends.
KNOWN WITH KIDS: Twyla is wonderful with humans of ALL ages!
KNOWN COMMANDS: that's a work in progress 😉
KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: Twyla is litter pan trained and is beginning house training. Crates are made available to the puppies, but crating is not enforced as they can't "hold it" through the night just yet. We will begin crate training within the next few days.
KNOWN LIKES: Twyla loves to romp around and play. She does the cutest spinning hops when she is excited! She also loves rubs and pets, especially around her chin rolls.
KNOWN DISLIKES: None known yet
ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Twyla is a stunner and has the most gorgeous face! She absolutely loves to play with her puppy friends and seeks out the attention of her humans. She is cautious but inquisitive. She doesn't rush into new things but does so with care. She warms up very quickly to new people and experiences. Twyla brings ABSOLUTE JOY wherever she goes! She is being raised in a foster home with 4 kids and a lot of socialization opportunities. She was blessed to have an extremely sweet and attentive mama. Mama is as good natured as they come, and I have no doubt she will pass those beautiful traits onto her babies.
