Barks and Meows Rescue introduces Cashew. He is one of two brothers brought into our Rescue from way up North, First Nations Lake Constance. We have no idea what his breed mix is so are making a guess based on his current looks. He is about 7 lbs at 8 1/2 weeks of age. He has a beautiful soft cream-coloured coat.
Cashew has thrived in a socialized environment. Coming from the Reserve, both he and his brothers didn't have human contact but did trust being around other dogs. They both have learned to trust people from the resident dogs in the foster home. They are very smart and will go to the empty water bowl to ask for a drink. Both have terrific appetites and are fed in their crate. Cashew is the more shy of the two but has started to enjoy being picked up and cuddled. They are fed 3 times daily and are on Small Breed Performatrin Puppy Food. They are having lots of fun with toys and playing hide and seek with one another under the furniture. Toys were new to them and they enjoy them all. They are paper-trained and learning to go outside. Cashew and his brother are both crate-trained.
The ideal home for Cashew will be one where he continues to be socialized with both people and animals. He is gentle while playing so would enjoy children in the home. Taking him to obedience classes is key to maintaining a well-socialized trained pup. We estimate they may reach up to 30lbs when fully grown.
Cashew and his brother came to us having had their first vaccines but we are also getting the Bordetella and Lepto vaccines done on January 10th. They will be microchipped at that time as well. They will be available to go to their new homes anytime after January 10th.
A fully fenced yard is mandatory to apply for our little Cashew.
