Puffin

Puffin and his siblings came to us at just 5 days old found on the Wind River Reservation with no momma in sight and temperatures quickly dropping. Puffin was bottle-fed and raised with love alongside his sister Aurora. He’s grown into a confident, playful pup who is ready to take on the world with an amazing forever family.

With his adorable markings and curious expression, Puffin resembles a small pit mix (breed unknown). He’s inquisitive, playful, and always ready to see what’s going on around him.

Puffin loves:

Playing with dogs of all sizes

Hanging out with kitties

Toys (especially if they squeak!)

Car rides and new adventures

Snacks and mealtime

Snuggles and naps

He is not fully potty trained yet but is litter trained and making great progress. He’s a typical happy puppy: energetic, affectionate, and ready to learn.

Puffin would thrive in a home that embraces puppy energy and is excited to help him grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be.

(We estimated his date of birth is around November 27, 2025. He came to us from the Wind River Reservation. His exact breed mix and adult size are unknown)
At Laramie Animal Welfare Society, the first step to adoption is completing an adoption application on our website www.laramieanimals.org. Once submitted, your application will be reviewed by our adoption team which typically takes 7+ days. Keep in mind, the animal you’re interested in when applying may be adopted and no longer available by the time your application is approved. We do not place animals on hold. Pending approval, your application is valid for 6 months. Also pending approval, you will receive contact information, so that you may inquire about the personalities of specific animals. Adoptions for individual animals will occur by private adoption appointment. Because we are 100% foster-based, appointments are scheduled pending staff, foster home, and vetting schedules. Should you want to proceed with the adoption, a brief appointment will occur at our adoption center to sign adoption paperwork, receive medical records, and pay the adoption fee.

**Dog/Puppy applications -
Because of the large volume of dog/puppy applications we are receiving these applications may take longer to process, please be patient. We do not do first come first serve but we place the dog/puppy in the best suited home. If you have questions about the Dog/Puppy process please email lawsdogprogram@gmail.com**

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
