Yuki

Hound Mix – Female – 8 lbs – 8 weeks

Sponsored by Deepa Chandwani – in honour of all rescue dogs who never got a second chance.
Yuki (which means winter in Japanese) is a beautiful soft caramel colour, which is a striking difference from her siblings.
This girl gravitates to people and is thrilled to be on someone’s lap getting pets or sitting amongst a group, being the center of attention. She’s a super sweet girl who is very smart girl and food motivated.  She will be a lot of fun to do training with.
Having said that, house training and crate training have started and Yuki is picking up both very quickly.
Although Yuki loves other dogs and would do well in a multi dog home, she is a very people focused dog and would be equally as happy to be the center of attention and have her people all to herself.
These beautiful hound mix puppies were born on December 26 and have spent the past eight weeks growing up in their foster home where they have been exposed to lots of dogs as well as people big and small. With the help of their mom and foster mom, they’ve been given a strong foundation to grow into well socialized, happy, and healthy adult dogs.
They are now ready to head to their forever homes at 8 weeks old (February 20) and have received their first vaccines and all age appropriate vetting prior to adoption.
Their mom June, is a 40 lb beagle mix who is remarkably sweet, gentle, and mischievous, just like any good hound. As far as hounds go she is a quiet dog who you only hear bark when she is really excited! Dad is unknown, so adopters should expect these puppies to grow to be medium-sized dogs. While the pups are mixed breed, adopters who have experience with hounds or an appreciation for hound traits would be ideal. The puppies are already proving to be very food and scent motivated and are currently medium energy.
Medical Note for Mom: Momma June is heartworm positive and will be starting her treatment as soon as the puppies are fully weaned. There is no concern with her passing on heartworm to the puppies. In very rare instances, a puppy may have some microfillaria due to small transfers of blood during birth. However, these microfillaria can not become adult heart worms and will clear on their own or be resolved by a dose of prevention. Your puppy will be given a dose of the appropriate medication at 8 weeks, which will serve as their 8 week worming dose, as well as heartworm, flea/tick prevention. Like all dogs, your puppy will need to start their seasonal preventatives late spring.
All puppies are litter trained and should transition quickly to going outside when weather allows.
