Ernie-ADOPTED!

Ernie is an adorable 4 month-old pup whose breed mix is truly anyone’s guess. He came into a county dog shelter as a stray when he was a tiny guy. The shelter thought he might be an Aussie/Beagle mix but we think there could be some Boxer or Border Collie in his family tree too. Only a DNA test will tell for sure! Whatever breeds have come together in this wonderful pup remain a mystery but there’s no question that he is a typically playful, fun-loving, affectionate little guy who’s eager to start settling into his forever home. Ernie loves playing with other pups so would enjoy having an active canine buddy in his new home. He also needs a family or person who is home much of the time as he is too young to be left alone for long workdays. Ernie was charming as ever when his photos were taken and we think you’ll find this sweet pup just as endearing as we do! Ernie weighs about 20 pounds currently and we expect he may be 40-45 pounds once full-grown. His adoption fee is $350. He’s neutered, on monthly heartworm preventative, up to date on vaccinations for his age, wormed, on flea and tick preventative, and microchipped. As part of the adoption process, all adopters must commit to a two-week adjustment period to make sure it’s a great match before the adoption is finalized.
