Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Dog Name: Campari

Breed: mix

Sex: f

Age: 7 weeks

Weight: 5 lbs

Medical Needs: Remainder of puppy shots, and rabies once old enough. Must be spayed/neutered by the end July 2026. The appointment is included in the adoption fee at one of the clinics we use, and the foster-to-adopt family will need to email GRR to request the appointment when puppy is 18-20 weeks at the clinic closest to them. (Options are Wilmington, Newark, Dover, Georgetown.) Keeping the appointment that's assigned by the clinic will be a condition of adoption. Foster to adopt families must live within 1 hour of DE and be willing to travel here for the pending appointment

Housebroken: No, she is a baby. There is a learning curve and will take quite some time. Keep the level of work in mind when getting a puppy.

Crate trained: working on it. Will go in willingly.

Good in Car: not yet

Good on leash: NO, again she is a baby. She is learning.

Energy Level: puppy energy. She does a lot of sleeping but will play like a puppy and she loves toys

Need a fenced in yard: TBD. Puppies should not be outside unsupervised

Dog friendly: yes.

Cat friendly: no idea. Not currently with cats at her foster home

Kid friendly: yes (currently resides with teenage human siblings) but children need to understand that puppys nibble and that they need to respect the animal and learn with him. Not recommended for very young children as puppies need gentle handling

Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? Campari is a puppy. A BABY. She needs someone to show her the rules of life. Make strong boundaries so she can grow up and be the queen of her castle. She eats 3 times a day. She's a baby and needs proper nutrition. She is still growing. While she has no medical needs that we know of, it is still a condition of adoption that she be altered.

HER PERFECT FAMILY:

-Will be home a lot until at minimum6 months old. She is a puppy and requires a lot of potty breaks.

- She needs a schedule and to be worked with to learn your routine.

- If you have children, they need to respect the dog.

Fostered: middletown DE

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.
