She loves to zoom around and play with a variety of toys and will find a comfy place to take a snooze after. She is comfortable with our two bigger dogs and our cat and will often play with them. Fluorite is still just a little gal, so potty training has only just begun. She sleeps in a kennel at night (with one of her siblings at this time).  Fluorite can't wait to find her forever home!To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: www.4luvofdog.org January 10, 2025, 1:34 am

This type of heart murmur is only seen in puppies and they typically grow out of it . June Bug’s heart murmur should be monitored by a veterinarian at each puppy vet visit. June Bug will make your heart flutter   Foster Home Feedback  1/1/25 Foster Feedback: June Bug, aka Junie B, is the sweetest little gal. She is adjusting well in these first few days we have had her. She is doing well with potty training but is not a huge fan of being outside in the cold. June Bug usually gets right to business and runs back inside. She is sleeping in her crate for most of the night.  She is a great snuggler. It is so adorable to see her prancing around and playing. June Bug has the most fun to watch puppy coordination- over shooting her destination, getting caught up in the blankets she is wrestling with.To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: www.4luvofdog.org January 9, 2025, 11:53 am
