Description:Dobby found his way to Safe Haven after being picked up as a stray in Missouri - he was picked up running down a street during a freezing rain and snow storm. He was taken to the local pound and sadly nobody came to claim him, so they reached out to a network of shelters in Iowa and asked for help and Dobby was transferred to Safe Haven of Iowa County.
Dobby is estimated to be around 3 months old, and is a super sweet, rambunctious, playful puppy that will steal the lucky heart of some wonderful family.
Dobby is fully vaccinated, de-wormed, microchipped, and will be neutered on 2/5/2020 and ready to go to his forever home on 2/7/2020 - so he is on track for a long healthy life with his forever family. Because having a puppy is a big decision that comes with a lot of responsibilities, an ideal family will be committed to taking a puppy obedience class and will continue to work at socialization skills. A well-socialized puppy usually develops into a happy, more relaxed and enjoyable pet. Because Dobby is so young, he will also need a family willing to commit to all the work that goes into house-training a puppy, which requires a lot of patience and persistence with working on a schedule. Puppies need to be taken outside frequently - as often as every 4 hours in the beginning. So an ideal home will be one where Dobby won't have long periods of time during the day spent alone, so he can have the best chance of successful housetraining and have years of wonderful love and devotion to focus on!
