Lazarus Poodle Mix Lenoir, NC

Lazarus was born with his littermates on July 22nd. Tragically, all his siblings passed away from a virus. Through dedicated nursing and God's grace, Lazarus recovered.

Lazarus' mom is Belle, and a picture of her is included in this bio. Belle weighs about 45 lb, so we anticipate Lazarus will be 50 lb as an adult. Dad is a doodle who belonged to Belle's rescuer.

Lazarus is an affectionate, playful pup. Without littermates, he's only played with carefully chosen adult dogs so plays gently.

Lazarus is leash savvy, but will pull. He will sleep all night in a crate and we anticipate he'll need a 42" or 48" as an adult. He is working on house-training and is successful if taken out for a potty break every hour. He goes out by himself on leash to help him learn that pottying is what he's outside to do. When out with other dogs, he forgets in favor of playing :)

------------------------
Whether dogs / puppies come in as strays or owner surrenders, we make our best guess as to birthdate and breed.

If adopted into a home with other animals, particularly cats, your new pet should be crated or secured when you're not available to supervise to insure a harmonious relationship.

For adult dogs, our adoption fee covers a standard canine vaccine, a rabies vaccine, heartworm (HW) test, HW prevention, and deworming if recommended by our vet.

Puppies will have two vaccinations, deworming, and heartworm prevention if age-appropriate. An additional fee for the 3rd puppy vaccination and rabies vaccination, if administered, will be added to the adoption fee.

If you are adopting an intact dog, a refundable spay/neuter deposit is required, and a vet reference may be required.
