You can’t get much cuter, bigger ears and tiny babies than these 3. Ellie, Eli and Eloisa are some of the sweetest, most gentle babies. Ellie is the mom, she is about 1.5 years old and weighs 9 lbs. Eli and Eloisa are her tiny puppies, 1 male and 1 female. They weigh exactly 2.03 lbs as of 6/4/25. Mom is fully grown, and we do not believe the puppies will get bigger than Mom at all. They are estimated to be around 9 weeks old as of 6/8/25. We got a call from somebody who wanted to surrender all 3 – Mom had wandered up awhile back and they just fed and gave her water, but didn’t really offer their home to her. She still wandered around the neighborhood and had no place to really call home. Then she had babies. They no longer wanted to deal with her or the puppies and were going to dump them in a high kill shelter if we couldn’t take them. A shelter is no place for puppies, especially ones as small as these are. Our foster immediately went to pick them up and get them to safety. They have been adjusting slowly to the foster’s home. The puppies have not been handled a lot and they’re getting used to it. Eloisa – female puppy is more outgoing than Eli and she is really enjoying being held. She is not yet too interested in toys, but it won't take long, especially when getting more one on one time with her forever family. Would be fine in a medium/low key home. She is not as shy as her brother but still needs a family/person that is patient as she’s learning to trust humans. Eli – He is a bit shy and unsure of his surroundings. If you try to pick him up, he cowers and sometimes scuttles away but once you have him in your arms, he melts like butter into you. He’s realizing he’s safe, loved, and protected. Needs a more patient, quiet home and someone willing to work with him to gain his trust and watch him blossom. Ellie – This sweet momma is so good. She’s a great mom and she would love to find her person that will keep her safe and loved, and not just toss out food for her from time to time. She is learning quickly, and loving, being a house dog. She is house trained. Ellie loves other dogs and doesn’t mind kitties. She wants to be next to you and in your lap. Every time the foster sits down; Ellie jumps right into her lap. She is a bit quiet, so a quieter household wanting a house dog and loving companion would be perfect for her.
