Thanksgiving litter. ๐ŸGSD mix

2 males, Tater and Pecan.  2 females, Pumpkin and Cranberry

Adorable Thanksgiving litter. We rescued these 4 under-age pups out of litter of 13 puppies (only 5 weeks old) from a super over crowded distant shelter on 11/9/24. Someone dumped them all without their mom on 11/4/24 and they were running out of options with no cage space and the shelter cannot care for young pups. All the pups were scared and huddled together at the shelter. Once in their foster home, they relaxed and are doing great. They love attention and cuddling. All love their slurry mix food, warm bed and playtime at their foster home’s yard for some sunshine. Now they will get to enjoy Thanksgiving in a warm and loving home while they learn. Two are thin but with healthy foods they will soon add some puppy weight. Puppies are not available until after 8 weeks old and vet care. More info. to come. Video on Facebook of the 13 puppies at the shelter. More need rescue and foster homes. https://www.facebook.com/FFRescue/videos/917980536512649

Tater and Pumpkin are the brave pups and love their food, so they will eat fast. Need to learn with slo bowl and add to the bowl for training. Cranberry and Pecan are more timid and smaller.

**Note: Adoption in SF Bay Area Only**
