Description
The Neverland Litter (Hook, Pan, Wendy, Tootles, Pockets, Cubby, Nana, Nibs, Rufio, and Tink) was born on a property that is known for breeding and selling puppies. When these babies turned six weeks old, the owner dropped them along with a second litter at a shelter. Unfortunately, the shelter, like so many others, was sitting at critical capacity and knew they needed help moving the babies forward. Recognizing that a rescue would be the best option for these babies, a plea went out to GSD rescues up and down the coast for help. With puppy season in full swing, many groups are inundated with babies needing a safe place to move forward. When asked if we could welcome this group to the family, team MAGSR stepped forward.
The Neverland puppies are playful, interactive, and social puppies. Although they did not have the easiest start, they have had many different people in their corner since their arrival at the shelter. In the last few weeks, these babies have had many opportunities to start socializing with new people and in a variety of situations. Socialization is essential to their success; it is critical to their forever families continue this process. Living with some of our amazing foster families, these babies are learning the ins and outs of living in a home. They are learning all about the joys of good food, daily playtime, structure and routine. Although Pockets and her siblings are beyond precious, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your household with endless puppy antics. With time, training, and patience, we know that the Neverland Litter will grow up to become good canine citizens. If your family is ready to welcome precious Pockets into your home, ask to meet her today.
Updates
Pockets is an amazing little girl. Of all the puppies her foster parents have fostered over the past 10+ years, Pockets is the FIRST to not only teach herself how to go UP and DOWN the stairs (whhaaat?) but also she is probably 90% potty trained- again, all on her own! She uses her foster sister and brothers as guides for knowing What To Do, and loves to play. She is still working on basic commands (sit, stay). She is incredibly smart and would do well in an environment with a lot of stimulation, or maybe even as a service dog!!! She definitely needs to be around other dogs, so her foster parents highly recommend she go to a house with other dogs she can play with.
