Meet Papa and Willow

Willow is retired from a commercial breeding facility and an estimated 13 y.o. Willow likes to be held, is somewhat shy but inquisitive, and is a happy girl. She is working on all of her house manners and is doing well but will need continued assistance. Willow loves treats and does well on leash. Willow has passed all of her vet exams with flying colors.
Hastings (Papa) is also retired from a breeding facility. Papa is a very sweet boy and very timid. We assume that Papa's experiences with humans were not positive because he has been slow to trust and enjoy human companionship. Recently Papa as been making strides and is now ready to follow Willow to a forever home. Papa is completely vetted, does well in crate training and usually does well on leash. When he becomes puzzled or uncertain he simply lies down and waits. He will need work with his house manners. Papa is an estimated 12 y.o.
Both Willow and Papa are now past the hard years of life and will do well with a family that is patient and understanding of their past. A home with a fenced yard is a must, both would do well with older children. Willow and Papa love being together and are a very bonded pair and cannot be separated. This pair is eligible for a permanent foster placement with the right home.
