Zuko

AGE: 15 weeks (as of 12/27/25)<br/>WEIGHT: 20 lbs<br/><br/>Zuko is a great pup! He is a little enthusiastic with his doggy friends but once he warms up he does much better. It would be great if he could find someone who hikes or bikes as he has a lot of energy but in a *polite* way. When it’s time to wind down though he definitely has an off switch and likes to curl up for a cuddle. He is very obedient and picking up on our household cues and routine quickly, and is already house trained - as long as you’re paying attention. Another plus, he has no interest in my houseplants, shoes, or any of the usual puppy mischief.<br/><br/>Zuko was a Maryland surrender.<br/><br/><br/>HOW TO ADOPT:<br/><br/>THIS dog is NOT in the shelter. For puppies in foster care, you MUST submit an application via EMAIL to smpetfinder@gmail.com. Please note in the email subject which puppy you are interested in.<br/><br/>Go to: http://www.smallmiraclesrescue.org<br/>and click "How to Adopt". There you will find the dog application available for download.<br/><br/>The more information you provide, the faster the process is for all of us. Once you are approved to adopt, we will schedule an appointment to see the puppy in person and you will adopt and take it home that day.<br/><br/>Due to the (usual) speed and ease of our adoption process, PLEASE ONLY APPLY IF YOU ARE READY TO ADOPT RIGHT NOW. If you are not ready to adopt within the next couple of days, we totally understand - just wait to apply until you are ready.<br/><br/>Adoption Fees:<br/><br/>Before our dogs are available for adoption, they will always be spayed/neutered, vaccinated (Distemper, Parvovirus, Bordetella, Rabies as much as age-appropriate), stool sample checked for parasites, and dewormed.<br/><br/>Adoption fee for our dogs is $375, $40 for a microchip and registration and $25 for a 3 month supply of heartworm preventative, for a TOTAL of $440.
