Description
The Hocus Pocus puppies - Mary, Sarah, and Winnie - were picked up as strays in the south and brought to a shelter. Upon their arrival shelter staff contacted MAGSR for help as they were at capacity. Recognizing that these babies needed to move forward, we immediately moved them into the MAGSR family. Although they survived upper respiratory infections, the girls' systems were not as equipped to fight off parvo when they popped positive. In the end, all three of the girls needed to be hospitalized to receive around the clock care. Although they fought hard to survive, sweet Winnie crossed over the bridge leaving her sisters, Mary and Sarah, behind. With a lot of love and a lot of people pulling for them, Mary and Sarah survived. We are so glad to see these lovely girls thriving and know that their sister is watching over them from the bridge.
Sarah is a friendly and outgoing little girl. She is ready for any adventure and is happy to lead the way. She is hoping that her forever family likes to explore and can't wait to learn all about the world around her. Not huge fans of heat, the girls do get warm easily and often prefer cooler surfaces to blankets. Both Sarah and Mary do understand the joy of a doggy cot and can often be found relaxing on one. Already comfortable with toys, the girls are big fans of things that squeak and crackle. An empty water bottle keeps them entertained for quite some time. Having lived in a foster home, the girls have been making great progress with their housetraining and are adjusting well to crating. When crated, they are pretty content most of the time. These girls have already begun to socialize with other animals and people. However, it is critical that their forever families continue this process. A well-socialized pup will develop into a stable adult. As they continue to grow, both girls will also need to attend training. Training will not only help them create a healthy bond with their families, it will also help them develop into good canine citizens.
Although these little survivors are super puppies, now they have beaten parvo, they are now free to be puppies. Please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With time, patience, structure, and routine, Sarah will develop the skills necessary to become a stable adult.
