Puppy Jack

Meet Puppy Jack!

Jack is a 3 month old, mixed breed pup. This rolly polly sweetheart came to us from Stockton with his sister, Jill. Jack is settling into his foster home nicely and loves playing with the resident big dog foster siblings who live there. Jack is very smart and will do anything for treats. He endured his first bath like an absolute champ with the help of some freeze dried tripe; he even relaxed in the tub and seemed to enjoy it. Jack and Jill are both eager to please and love learning new tricks. They mastered "sit" on their first day out of the shelter and understand "down" with hand movements to guide them. Jack and Jill have been sleeping in a crate at night and are working on potty training.



Ideal home will:

Have the time to commit to all things puppy! Please note puppies do not do well left alone long hours and need to be let out every 2-3 hours for potty. Long work schedule where the puppy would be left alone for 7+ hours can be difficult on most puppies and young dogs.

Solid plans for puppy socialization, positive exposure and continued training + relationship building -- commitment not just to puppyhood but to a lifetime of love, care, companionship and vetting. HFP advocates for Positive Reinforcement only for young puppies and training that focuses less on "obedience" and more on confidence building, relationship building and consent training.

Preference to homes w/ friendly & well-trained dog role models (preference, NOT required)

Preference to homes w/ yards (preferred, NOT required) Why? Puppies cannot go in public until they are 4 month old and complete their puppy shot series. Having a yard during this time greatly helps with play, potty training, and providing an outlet for your puppy to get outside. There are ways to work around this if you do live in an apartment setting but it takes some extra work and planning!
