Meet Hera

Hera is from Texas.  She is one of 10 puppies that were found with their mom  under an  abandoned  building.  Hera was brought into rescue, received her necessary  veterinary  care, and is absolutely thriving!  It's time to find her a home of her very own here in MN.  Hera is not completely potty trained, but her foster  family  in Texas is working hard at it with her every day.  Hera is still on her puppy schedule.. sleep, eat, play & poop.. lol!  Giving her adequate outside time roughly 30-45 minutes after she eats consistently is crucial to her continued potty training after she gets to her new home here in MN.  Hera is not crate trained per se, but crate training a puppy is quite easy.. just make sure you have a crate  open  and available to her throughout the day.  put her bed/blanket in there, feed her her meals there, and give any high value treats in the kennel.  She is still in her  land shark  phase as those puppy teeth are falling out, preferring something soothing to chew on.. benebones/raw bones.  Soon she will associate it with all things good and safe.  If she has troubles settling to sleep or if you need to crate while you are gone, usually covering the crate with a blanket will help her settle.  Hera is a very smart little girl and her Texan foster mom thinks she will be  incredibly  easy to train, as she is so eager to please.  She loves to play with toys and splash around in the puppy pool at her foster home.  She would love an active family that just wants to make her a part of their life.. going on walks  every  night to explore her new surroundings.. maybe throwing the ball a bit.. you know.. puppy stuff.  She promises to pay you back with all the puppy kisses you can possibly handle!  If you think this sounds like the perfect  little arrangement to you, please fill out an adoption application today!
