Description:

Hello to my future family! My name is Pickles and I can’t wait to meet you and begin my non-litter life (Sunday Comics Litter). I am a confident little boy and am very friendly. I am the first to jump out of the whelping box, and just like to have a lot of fun in everyone’s business.

I can’t wait to meet you and begin my solo puppy life! Fill out an app to meet me (or others in my litter), you won’t be disappointed! I can go “home” on my 8-week birthday!

So far, life has been really good. Me and my 10 siblings were born on May 24^th…mom was supposed to wait til we made it to MN, but we just couldn’t wait to be a part of the world. We arrived in MN a few days later and enjoyed a calm and inviting environment. Our foster mom does so many cool things to make sure we are good little puppies. For example, to get accustomed to different sounds, she plays music that has different sounds intermixed so we can desensitize to them. We do a lot of sensory work, such as walking and playing with lots of different textures. And we do a lot of confidence building, such as walking up and down ramps, going through tunnels, and being cheer-leaded for every everything we do.

We started in the whelping room, away from all the other animals in the house. At 4 weeks, we moved to a room off the living room, so we could see and hear, but were safely behind two gates. And then we turned 6…and now we have a daytime living space in the living/dining room! There are three resident dogs here, and I love watching them and saying hi through the pen. I give the Great Pyrenees lots of kisses through the pen. The big dogs are fun to watch, and I am learning so much from them. I sleep in a smaller area and have been introduced to kennels (with the doors always open). I like to go sleep in there with some of my siblings and we all sleep soundly through the night

I am really healthy, having just had my 6-week checkup. The whole litter had some Demodex prior to our first round of preventatives, but now our skin is clearing up nicely. I have had my nails trimmed about 3 times so far and did really well with my first bath. I am eating like a champ, and currently the food is IAMS puppy (from the rescue), but I get lots of treats. My favorites are frozen cubes of watermelon because it helps with the teething, but I also like Cheerios, baby carrots, and puppy popcorn.
