NINA Labrador Retriever Mix El Paso, TX

Nina comes to us as part of litter and is a spayed f. all our pets go out with all possible shots and fixed. She weighs 12.8 at 3 months and is anticipated to qualify as small dog when adult she will grow and the projected weight cannot be positively accurate. Dog has all 3 parvo distemper shots and is expected to be protected for life and not get the disease. Dogs which only have one shot and get fixed and put out for adoption almost always die of stress and parvo because parvo is everywhere and if they ride in a city truck or spend minutes at the pound they are exposed to parvo and distemper both of which are deadly. We are not in such a hurry to get our dogs on the adoption market and we guarantee health for 90 days through kennel vet. We also allow a 30 day exchange and in exchange we expect those who adopt to keep dog for it's entire life not dumping it off with some friend who will likely dump it again without a thought. A dog is a life time comittment and if you shirk that duty your kids will not think twice when you turn 70 of walking away from you leaving you alone. Dog is eating Pedigree Puppy Kibble and a dollop of moist from Pedigree Packet. We advocate Pedigree because locally we are so close to Mexico that people tend to buy bargain house brands and house brands are often made in Mexico or have Mexico standards we do not guarantee dogs that are taken off Pedigree and put on local brands only two brands are specified one is Purina both brands are reliable we see dogs in various stages of decline and when we ask about their food source they tell us the truth and it is usually the food if they are not healthy. Dog is eating 3x a day until over a y old then they should have permanent teeth and can be slowly switched to Pedigree adult kibble and continue moist slowly taper to once a day feeding realizing dog should not lose any weight keep strict weight diary. Dogs are pack animals and as such must feel they belong to their human pack. You become pack leader dogs must sleep inside and can be humanely crated for intervals of 3 hours and over night. If you crate always include a kong and never crqte for punishment the crate should be dog's safe place. Dogs that are put outside day and night feel they are being punished because they descend from wolves and wolves snuggle together at night for warmpth and safety and bonding. A dog needs to be inside at night and if it is not your thinking to do so do not adopt from us. Dogs that are separated too much from human pack develop separation anxiety syndrome and will become mentally damaged and should a h uman let them come into their environment they become like doggie Velcore clinging to human so hard they are not tolerated and often cannot be rehibilated and end up being put down. A dog should be praised and in house training you should never scowl always have a happy face even if annoyed it is a dog not a person. Walk outside with your dog saying 'go potty' also you can put down puddle pads that are scented if you see your dog stop playing and start to sniff about take out then if dog does not 'go' but comes inside and 'goes' it might smell where another dog has gone and not want to insult that dog. Be patient take out at regular intervals. Cost of dog is $125.00 cash or card no checks ready to go home.
