What would be the best kind of home? Percy is a Presa/Husky/German Sheperd mix. The adopter will be required to attend training once the puppies have completed their puppy vaccination series and will be required to show proof of training. These pups will not be adopted out with other same sex bully breeds. Due to the nature of these breeds, a fenced in yard is preferred.
Fostered in Butler, PA.
Puppy Adoption Policy:
To ensure proper house training and socialization, puppies will only be adopted to homes where an adult will not be away more than an hour per day, per month of age of the puppy, up to 6 months.
Puppies will be adopted out on a 'Foster to Adopt' basis. This means that if/when your application is approved to adopt, you sign a contract stating you are fostering the puppy until the time it is neutered/spayed at your expense. Giant breed puppies should be not be spayed/neutered before 12 months of age. All non-giant breed puppies must be spayed/neutered by the age of 6 months, unless otherwise recommended by your veterinarian. We will amend the Foster-to-Adopt contract to make the puppy legally yours, only when we receive a spay/neuter certificate from you or your veterinarian. If the puppy is not spayed/neutered as required, we will take possession of the puppy once again.
