Meet Mateus!  Mateus is one of Nikki's puppies.  Mates probably looks like his father because he looks more like a black lab puppy.  He is a very sweet puppy, and he just loves his mom. Nikki appears to be a Rotti/Australian Shepherd mix, and we think daddy was a lab collie mix.  However, it is a pure guess on the father's breed which we based on the appearance of some of the puppies.  Nikki and her puppies were surrendered at 4 weeks of age to our partner group in Kentucky, and we had them transported to Pennsylvania shortly after that.   We have wormed them every week since they arrived with Panacur except the week of their shots.  They have received a clean fecal reading and a clean bill of health from our veterinarian, Timberview Vets.  They were microchipped, and our organization pays the registration fee for the adopter.  If you want to meet these puppies or their mom Nikki, you must have an approved adoption application on file.  You can apply online at http://homewardbound2u.rescuegroups.org.  Carla Hughes will review your applications, and she will hand off the approved applicants to the foster mom, Tiffany.  These puppies are located in a foster home in New Cumberland, PA.  We do out-of-state adoptions, but you must be willing to travel to the foster home.
