Olivia was part of Newt’s litter of seven puppies.  Newt came to us pregnant from Kentucky, and she is a lab shepherd mix.  The folks who rescued her in Kentucky said daddy was a large Labrador in the area.  They had been trying for a year to catch Newt, and after Newt got pregnant she surrendered herself to them and quickly adapted to the life style of an indoor dog.  She just loves the dog beds.  Newt delivered her babies on January 20, 2012.  Seven little furry bundles arrived – four girls and three boys.  Newt has been an excellent mother to all them.  Two of them, Odi and Olive, strongly resemble shepherds.  The rest of the puppies are some variation of black and white and several have spotted paws.  All of them have a beautiful thick coat.  Since the puppies were two weeks old they have been wormed every week, and they have been vet checked.  All received a glowing report.  They received their first combo shot at six weeks of age.  The pups are micro-chipped for their new owners and will go home with their first months flea and tick preventative as well as their first heartworm preventative pill.  The puppies all have a very nice even keeled personality.  No one is strongly dominate nor are any terribly shy.  They like to be held and they love their playtime.  If you want to meet these puppies, please fill out our adoption application which can be found at www.homewardbound2u.rescuegroups.org and then contact their foster mom at suehollenbach@comcast.net to arrange a meeting.
