Whether it's a squeaky toy or a plushie, Red is always ready for a fun-filled adventure. But don't be fooled by his playful nature, he's also a gentle soul who loves nothing more than to snuggle up and give warm puppy kisses. He's a bundle of joy that will surely bring a daily dose of happiness to any home. Being just a pup, he will have so much to learn! He'll need house training, crate training and will need to learn to walk on a leash. We strongly recommend that all our dogs attend obedience classes because you get to learn commands together, and it offers an opportunity for confidence building and socialization with other furry friends. Adopting Red means welcoming an endless supply of love, laughter, and memorable moments. Give him a chance to make your home his forever home. 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.
