Enzo is up to date on vaccines for his age and has been dewormed. Mama Lucy is a chihuahua mix. Dad is a man of mystery - most likely a terrier mix. Weight: 4 lbs and growing Height: 6 in and growing Spayed/Neutered: No. Enzo is too young and small to be neutered. He will be adopted on a spay/neuter addendum that requires you to neuter him at your expense within 9 months and provide proof of neuter. Adoption Fee: $200 Fence needed? Yes What kind of home would be best for me? Puppies are always in need of a canine friend, they love to run and play with one another. Puppies are active, agile little babies, they need homes that are ready to tire them out both mentally and physically, so a fenced in yard will be required. Puppies are generally very well rounded dogs, they do not meet strangers and would do well with a nice big family or a single owner! What matters most to a puppy is a happy and excited owner ready to take on loving and training their new puppy! When raised around cats, with proper boundaries, puppies do very well. If you expect your puppy to get alone with your feline buddy, it’s important to start socializing the puppy with the cat as soon as you can! What is my personality like? Enzo has always been Mama Lucy’s special boy. If you’re looking for him, chances are he’s curled up right beside her, soaking up every bit of comfort and warmth he can get. This affectionate little guy absolutely loves being close to his favorite person. Because Enzo is such a devoted snuggler, we’re pretty sure he’ll grow into a full-on velcro dog with his future human - loyal, loving, and happiest when he’s at your side (or in your lap). His gentle nature and big heart make him an easy puppy to fall in love with. If you’re hoping for a companion who will adore you endlessly and follow you everywhere with puppy devotion, Enzo is your boy. PUPPY POLICY - Thank you for carefully considering the addition of a puppy to your family. Puppies can be a joyous experience, but they can also be a tremendous amount of work. Since our goal is to place each of our dogs in forever homes, we are especially cautious with puppies. We like to stress 3 major things when considering a puppy vs. an adult dog: 1) many adult dogs are well bred, well trained dogs who find themselves in rescue through no fault of their own, 2) adult dogs are eager to share their love and bond with their new family, and 3) puppies will always require far more time, energy, and training than an adult dog. Our ideal puppy adopters are - experienced dog owners with a solid record of excellent vet care of their previous pets - scheduled away from home for no more than 4 hours per day and have another canine companion already in the home - stay at home type of people (work at home, home schoolers, retired, etc) How do I act when I first meet new people? Enzo is a happy-go-lucky boy who enjoys making new friends. Other tips and tidbits: Enzo's birthday is 01/03/2026 House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule as long as a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained. A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule. Potential Adopters Dogs can’t drive — and since we’re busy taking care of them, we can’t either! Please check your potential BFF’s location and make sure you’re comfortable traveling to meet them.
