Basil D5273
Herb litter, under-age pups (6 wks) were rescued from a distant shelter. They were dumped in the streets. All are very sweet. Hard to tell their breed type yet. Maybe Lab/Collie/Shep mix. Foster home bathed them and they all did well. Eating well. More info. and photos to come on their personalities as they relax and learn at their foster home. They are not available until they are 8 weeks old and get their vet care.
Need foster homes for one on one training and puppy socials. Playful, friendly and adorable. He goes out to backyard for potty biz.
Basil is in a temp foster home and needs a new foster home or adopter by July 2nd.
