Jan - Hound and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Doylestown, Pennsylvania

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!

Jan is a 12lb, 3-4 month old mixed breed pup who is ready to find her forever home. She is such a cutie and is doing great in her foster home. She is crate trained and well on her way to housebroken, if not already there.

Jan loves playing with toys and things that keep her brain occupied. She is working on learning 'come' and 'sit.' She is going to be one smart cookie!

Email almosthome4dogs@yahoo.com for an application to adopt Jan!

Priority may be given to prospective families with a resident canine who can show her the ropes and someone home often enough to continue training and socialization that all puppies need to thrive.

Please email us at AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com for more info or an application. (Local adoptions preferred — Philadelphia and tri-state area [South Jersey and northern Delaware] only.) NOTE: Most puppies do best in the company of an older dog who can teach them "doggy manners," so homes with at least one other dog usually will be given preference in puppy adoptions. Please read Suzanne Clothier's wonderful article, "It Takes a Pack to Raise a Puppy!" PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTACTING US!
