Hope I’m not too late to jump on the band wagon here, and I’m sure every animal lover out there already knows that today is Petfinder’s Adopt the Internet Day.

Keisha-WA
\nBrittany Spaniel/Golden Retriever Mix: An adoptable dog in Seattle, WA
\nThis litter of three came into rescue out of the Tri-Cities. They spent their entire life (3-4 months) outside with very little socialization. The family was having economic hardship and surrendered momma and puppies in the hopes of finding a great home.
Their foster home has a doggie door and all three utilize it. They are well on their way to being completely potty trained. They are teething and need toys that stimulate them to chew vice using inappropriate things to cut their new teeth.

Dugan-WA
\nYorkshire Terrier Yorkie/Dachshund Mix: An adoptable dog in Vancouver, WA
\nDugan is oozing with cuteness that his photos don't even begin to show! He is very sweet and loving with a fun side. Dugan is absolutely crazy about apples and gets very excited if you're willing to share a few bites with him. If he knows you have an apple he will stand up, beg and talk to you asking for just a little taste. Dugan is good with other dogs and we think he will be fine with cats. Due to his size we are looking for a home with no small children that may accidentally hurt him. Dugan is working on his house training and is already crate trained. He is 1 year old and his adoption fee is $250. Visit our website to see more photos of Dugan and fill out an adoption application.
Hope I’m not too late to jump on the band wagon here, and I’m sure every animal lover out there already knows that today is Petfinder’s Adopt the Internet Day.
