Approximate DOB 05/28/2017


Size - He's a small dog..


History- Update 02/01/2018 - Pollux was adopted to what we thought was his forever family.. However a couple weeks ago we received a call from a local shelter that he had been surrendered to them. So the foster family wet and picked him up and he is doing wonderful! We are upset that his adopters broke their contract however glad that we found out and he is back with us. He is about 8 months now and even though his mom was a corgi mix he looks like a Min Pin mix.. Super cute, playful, sweet, and very smart. He is using the dog door and loves to play with all the other dogs.. Just a perfect pup!!!


An out of state rescue had agreed to take this small family from a rural shelter however after the transporter picked them up they backed out (which happens to the best of us- for one reason or another). The family had no place to go and rescue was once again needed. She sent us a plea asking if we had room, we posted on our foster page asking for a foster for them, and our wonderful fosters said yes.. They have now had them for 4 weeks and these guys are doing great-- still super small but so dang cute.. They have received their first vaccines and are ready to start looking for their happily ever afters. We will be accepting applications for them and they will receive their 2nd vaccine on the 23rd and then they will joining their families. This litter includes mom - Maya and her 5 puppies- Kalliope, Thalia, Clio, Pollux, and Castor.


Temperament- Very sweet and playful. Please be aware tiny puppies have not learned manners and will sometimes mouth, bite, and scratch. Children should be taught to be gentle and to understand that the puppy is not trying to be mean but they might accidentally scratch or bite them. If you have sensitive children and want to get a pet for them maybe consider an adult that has been around children - otherwise there might be a lot of tears when the child doesn't understand why the puppy hurt them. So please be fully aware and do your research if you are considering a puppy as they are a lot of work and it might not be a good situation for everyone.


Energy Level- Typical puppy energy


Dogs/Cats- Good with the other dogs and cats.


Housetrained- They are currently using puppy pads..


Adoption fee $200 includes spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations (4 for puppies), deworming, microchip, rabies vacc, collar and tags, training information, and all the support you need.
