FINCH

HISTORY: Atticus and Finch were found as a strays on a local road.

Dumped on a road by a local farm, Atticus and Finch were very thin and in need of help. A Good Samaritan took them into her home and cared for them as long as she could but with 5 dogs and 5 cats already in the home, she was unable to keep them. Even after 2 weeks of being fed in the home, they were still thin when they arrived at the sanctuary.

Just 4-1/2 months old, Atticus and Finch are ready to wow you. These two boys are the sweetest pups – very social and friendly. While at the farm, they were around other dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, horses and cows with no issues. Our volunteers tell us that Atticus and Finch are very calm and well behaved, and they are benefiting from on-going training from our in-house trainer, Wen. They are learning to walk well on a leash and are starting to learn commands.

But don’t just take our word for it – come out and meet them and see for yourselves! 

More about the pups: Although these two pups have the same back story, their personalities are very different.

Atticus is very much a goofball, who fully embraces his inner hound. He is an extremely silly boy, who suffers from puppy ADD. When in the arena he is clearly more interested in the sights, smells and sounds, than earning a puppy diploma for focus and attention. That being said, he is still very trainable, and very food motivated. He is already learning to walk well on a leash, and knows the sit and down commands. He is getting better each day with his puppy obedience skills. He has the most adorable overbite, a nub tail, and the eyes of a prankster. He loves every person he meets, and is game to make new dog friends as well. If you are looking for a dog that will make you laugh till it hurts, this is your guy.

Finch is a very sweet and happy boy. He has very soulful green/ grey eyes. Although he is not as goofy as Atticus, he is still quite comical. Finch seems to find joy in everything he does. Whether it be play time in the arena, going for a stroll, or sitting in your lap for a cuddle. He embraces them all with enthusiasm. Finch has taken well to his training and is keen to learn more. He is learning to walk well on a leash, and has already learned the sit and down commands. If you are looking for a companion who is happy go lucky Finch definitely fits the bill.
