Rex is the last pup left from a Stop the Cycle litter; Forget Me Not spayed the mother dog, and has found his littermates terrific new homes. Rex was almost adopted, but we noticed he was having some difficulty urinating; a trip to the vet diagnosed urinary crystals, which we are treating with a urine acidifier. The condition should clear up after that, but if not, it is usually treatable by either diet or continuing the urine acidifier. He was born 9/11/11; mom is a pit bull, and the litter appears to have had a few different dads; we see possible border collie in Rex, with the longer, fluffier white fur on his chest and his border ... (Read More)collie-like markings. Rex is an affectionate, happy pup; he plays hard, then naps hard (ha). He is incredibly cute, but please do your breed research before applying to adopt him; because he is half pit bull, there are many areas where a pup like Rex will be banned, no matter how cute, cuddly, and well-behaved he is. Make sure your town, county, housing association, and homeowners insurance will allow a pit bull mix puppy. Rex should make a fabulous family dog. He is fostering in a home with big dogs, a cat, and even some chickens, and we think he will do well adapting to pretty much any other pets in the home. Now that he is the only puppy, his foster mom has integrated him into the home, and he has learned to sleep in a crate overnight. He has also learned how to go up and down the stairs, and he is VERY proud of himself. Puppies require a lot of human interaction, and all puppies will benefit from obedience training and full immersion in their human household. These pups' ideal homes will have someone who can exercise them with a couple of energetic walks each day, plus commitment to training them how to be the best dogs they can be. They hope to have very few hours per day when they will be without the companionship of a human or other pet. They will reward their forever owners with boundless love and loyalty! We start all puppies on their vaccinations as soon as they arrive at the shelter (Rex will have had all 3 of his puppy vaccinations before going home); Rex will require rabies vaccination between 4-6 months of age. Can be delivered to approved adopter in North Bend on 1/7, or North Spokane by appointment in early January 2012. (Less)
