Hi!!! I'm Felix!!! i'm a 10 week old puppy, and boy, am i ALL puppy!!!! i'm super friendly, i love everyone i've met so far, even kids and other dogs! i am SO Grateful to have been rescued by ERU! see, i had kind of a rotten start in life. i was rescued with my brother Oscar from a puppy mill in Lancaster, PA. we've no idea why we weren't wanted, but my foster mom thinks we may have been too "old" to sell. imagine that! too old, at 10 weeks!!!
when we were rescued, we were coated head to tail in cow manure. see, that's where we had been living and playing on the "farm". We STUNK!!! it took 3 scrubbings to restore our not smelly, white and soft fur. we were very good for our long baths and waited patiently for our foster mommy to clean us up. once she did, we came out of our shell!!! there's a picture down below of just how messy i was when my mommy got me. thank god for warm baths and fluffy towels!!! i am the smaller of the two of us, and more timid. i have the spotted nose, which my mommy thinks is the cutest thing ever! my spot is inthe shape of a heart, which my mom thinks is fitting, because i'm such a lover and a snuggler!!! i'm not as vocal as my brother oscar, but i love him dearly and we follow each other everywhere. right now we are even crated together, it's the only way either of us will sleep calmly. we really like our new fenced in yard, it so much more fun to play in than a pile of manure!!! we've been to the vet for our first round of shots, and we were so good for Dr lee! he says we're perfectly healthy happy puppies! amazing considering our start in life! we still need to have something "fixed", mommy says. i dont know whats broken, but oh well! we'll be ready to go to our new home sometime after the 4th of july weekend. mommy would really like to see us adopted together, so if you've got it in your heart to open your home to the both of us, that would be really great! keep in mind, if you apply to adopt us, we are BABIES. we are NOT potty trained, though mommy is working on it with us. we will need manners, housebreaking, leash training, and firm but gentle guidance so we can grow up into wonderful eskie ambassadors. we will probably be large mini's or small standards, as our parents were both in the 25-30# range. mommy says it's not too bad housetraining both of us at once, since we seem to learn from each other. and we LOVE to play, and have endless enrgy, so that's another reason we'd like to stay together. we are currently located in the Philadelphia, PA area. ERU does not transport puppies of our age, so in order to adopt us you'd have to be willing to come and get us in Philly. you'd also have to agree to attend obedience classes with us as part of the adoption contract. Please note: My adoption fee is $350 plus a spay/neuter deposit of 250.00 (unless we are fixed before we go home). You will get the 250.00 deposit back once you provide proof of getting me fixed! Please don't put in an application for me/us unless you are really prepared for a puppy. That means chewing, housebreaking, lots of obedience training, and probably lots more chewing too! You must agree to take me to obedience class within 4 month of adoption, with proof of completion of class we will send you a 25.00 rebate. More about Felix of PAGood with Dogs, Good with Cats, Good with Kids Special Needs: Felix is 150% puppy and all that entails :) Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state. Other Pictures of Felix of PA (click to see larger version):
