A local family started noticing a stray female dog had began to show signs of being pregnant, so they took her under their care so that she'd have a safe place to deliver her litter. The pregnant dog was very sweet and receptive to their kindness. Shortly after the mom delivered her litter, she apparently got into a fight with some other animal, evident by the bite marks, that left her with a fractured leg. Not only did this family continue to care for mom and pups, they also covered the cost of having the mom's leg examined and treated by a vet and have offered to keep her for now. Their dedication to helping this mom and pups only increased our desire to help find the pups a home. 

Hewitt is a master at combining all of the positive traits that make up a wonderful puppy. He's playful, friendly and very, very happy. He's also an ideal candidate for just about anyone who is looking to add the warmth, love and joy of a puppy to their home.

Hewitt has now received 2/3 of his first-year puppy vaccines, his Bordetella and rabies vaccinations as well as scheduled de-wormings and preventative care including being started on his flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. His adopter will have to agree to having Hewitt neutered once turns 6 months of age and providing SoCo with verification of such. Hewitt will require all of his basic training.
