Moe (ADOPTED!) German Shepherd Dog & Husky Mix Chicago, IL

**MOE HAS BEEN ADOPTED!** Meet Moe, a charming and cheerful little pup searching for a forever family. This adorable fella was born in the care of Pal's Place and has only known love and kindness from the day he was born. Penny, Moe's mother (also available for adoption) was rescued from an over-capacity animal control facility in rural Kentucky. We did not know she was pregnant at the time of her rescue but she surprised us with three precious and perfect little stowaways shortly after her arrival in Chicago! We sure are glad we rescued Penny when we did, an overcrowded, chaotic, stressful pound is no place for a mom with new puppies and we are so happy our sweet mama was able to raise her pups in the comfort of a safe, loving and nurturing foster home.
Moe's mother is a delightful, gentle, and loving 40-pound mixed breed, possibly with Husky and Chow in her family tree. The father of the puppies is unknown but Moe and his littermates appear to have some Shepherd and Great Pyrenees in their lineage. They are most likely a mix of several breeds, all combining to create three exceptionally adorable pups. Moe and his littermates are 2.5 months old (7/1) and weigh between 17-19 pounds. Given their current age and weights, we expect them to mature into very large dogs, with an estimated fully mature size of 90-110 pounds.
Moe and his brothers will make outstanding companions for active families with the time, energy, and patience to raise a young puppy. They get along well with other dogs and are working on their crate training and housebreaking in their foster home. Remember that puppies this age and size need potty breaks every 2-3 hours, with lots and lots of playtime, socialization, and mental and physical stimulation throughout the day. Please consider if you truly have time for a puppy before applying. Moe and his littermates are neutered, current with age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and started on flea and heartworm prevention. They are ready and anxious to meet their new families! The adoption fee to the rescue is $475
