Buster

My story

Please do NOT call to ask if this puppy is available for adoption. If this listing is still posted then we are still accepting application for him/her. Please read the narrative in it's entirety. Please note our adoption procedures are explained in GREAT DETAIL BELOW. READ, READ, READ. Thank You. . . . . The best match will be selected and contacted to confirm an appointment at Petsmart in Yorba Linda on Saturday between noon and 3 pm or on a mutually agreeable day, time and place. We do not do out-of-state adoptions for puppies and we cannot hold puppies; please submit your application when you are ready to adopt. The adoption fees cover the mandatory and non-negotiable spay/neuter, rabies, fecal testing, de-worming, microchip, microchip registration, core vaccinations including rabies and 4 sets of distemper/parvo.. Adoption fees vary based on age, breed, size and the costs incurred on the dog's behalf by us i.e. medical, behavioral training, etc. The adoption fee for a puppy is generally $495 - $525. Buster and his mother were rescued from his owner, living homeless in the Mojave desert. Unable to care for them, they were relinquished to poochmatch. He has already had 3 sets of vaccines, one left to go. He is in good health and has a robust appetite! Sociable with other dogs, he loves to play, eat, sleep and poop. Typical puppy. Puppies are not house-trained although they may have begun crate-training and/or potty pad training in their foster home, depending on their age. House-training is a process that will need to be completed by their adopter. Puppies, if left unsupervised and not redirected will develop negative behaviors such as using the restroom in the wrong place, chewing, barking, whining, etc. Please be sure to do research on raising a puppy and be sure that you are prepared to do so. This is a great article from 3LostDogs that explains the trials and tribulations of puppyhood: http://3lostdogs.com/things-wish-everyone-knew-before-they-get-dog-2/

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Buster, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
