DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Meet Babe Icicle!
Looking for a small pup that would love to be your side kick? Look no further, Icicle is your girl. Sweet, cuddler and lap lover. Babe Icicle is part of the Winter Litter—five irresistibly sweet siblings (Babe Mittens, Babe Blizzard, Babe Icicle, Babe Snowflake, and Babe Winter). This tiny family found themselves where no puppy should ever be: a shelter in Alabama that was overflowing and out of options. Thankfully, K-9 Lifesavers stepped in and gave them the second chance they so deeply deserved.

Icicle has loved her time snuggled in the puppy pile, but now she's ready for the next chapter—finding a forever home of her very own. Could that be you?

True to her puppy status, Babe Icicle is sweet, playful, and full of love. She's curious about the world, eager to learn, and at the perfect age for training and socialization. With patience, guidance, and plenty of cuddles, she's sure to grow into an amazing companion. Babe Icicle would make a wonderful addition to a loving home ready for all the joy (and a little chaos!) that comes with a puppy. Apply today and change her life forever—she's ready to fill your home with love.

Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.

Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.

Foster Program: Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.
