So, the puppy chewed up some stuff, and is now at the shelter...crate training would've stopped that issue from the start. Don't know where the owners got the puppy, if the breeder was contacted for a return (very doubtful or it wouldn't be at the shelter), why the owner didn't try crate training or any training, etc. Puppies don't come out of the box already trained and knowing how to behave...sheesh...
This dachshund pup as well as one or two others will be coming down the road w/ K_K...any fosters out there or anyone looking to adopt - check out the website soon for updated pics of available pups. Second Hope Rescue |
Yeah she called me this morning and told me the story. She was on her way to PG County to pick him up. We are going to VA Sunday to pick up some fencing for her place.
