Adalaide, named for a city in Australia (and affectionately called “Addie”) is a sweet Australian Shepherd puppy. The Pups were born January 1, 2024. They are sweet, smart, have all their first shots (distemper/parvo/lepto, Bordetella, one year rabies) been microchipped, and are on heartworm/flea meds and are wormed.

To adopt this beautiful puppy, please do our non-obligatory application at www.pawsandprayers.org and we will see if it is a good fit for you and the pup. Any questions, email marty@pawsandprayers.org .We are requiring a fenced yard for these puppies.

Thinking about a new puppy….. things to keep in mind:

• Puppy will need time, training, love and connection, mixed in with a load of attention.
• Best if children are school age or older; we will consider younger children only on exception basis.
• Puppies have small bladders and need to have someone to let them out regularly for potty breaks…..work from home, work part-time, come home at lunch…..need a plan as they will need you every 4 to 5 hours until they are at least 6 to 8 months old.
• Will your current pet be willing to accept a new puppy. Puppies can be a handful.
• Will you be traveling extensively for the next couple of months?
• Puppy proofing your home is like baby proofing you home; it requires effort.

Puppies can go to their new homes from 8 weeks, but holding on a little longer and letting them go around 12 weeks can be really beneficial, as their development and socializing will be a lot more established by that point. Those few extra weeks can make a big difference in how they act in their new home….. more social, less nippy. The adoption fee is $400.
