Tootsie Labrador Retriever Mix Pennington, NJ

When a former SoCo staff member heard about a litter of stray pups that needed help, she offered to take the pups in and provide care for them. During their time with this woman, they were started on their required basic care of being de-wormed, receiving their vaccinations and other preventative care. Once space opened up at our rescue, all nine pups from this litter were then transferred to our facility. Financial restraints and other issues beyond our control prohibited us from getting the entire litter ready for adoption sooner, as we had hoped. But now, the first three, Tootsie, Tiffany and Travis, are now available for adoption.

Tootsie is a sweet, wonderful girl who plays very well with other dogs. Tootsie is very affectionate, playful and loves her time with people. Her only drawback: she is a bit timid when facing new task such as we're seeing with her leash training.

While she is going to make someone a great companion, she is very apprehensive and reluctant of a leash. We have been working with her and she is making positive progress, but her adopter must be understanding and patience so that she can master the training.

Tootsie has now been fully vetted, including being spayed. We've also kept her on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. All this wonderful girl needs is your love!
