My story

Back story: Meet the Mixed Paint Litter seven tiny masterpieces rescued from a nightmare and now painting a brand new future. Picture this: during a storm, one tiny puppy was found trapped deep inside a culvert, covered in painful ant bites and crying for help while her devoted mama paced frantically nearby, unable to save her baby. What rescuers discovered next was even more heartbreaking six more puppies hidden inside a hollow tree trunk, scared, hungry, and clinging to each other for comfort. After hours of careful rescue work, every single puppy was brought safely to freedom. And now? These once-forgotten babies are thriving, playful little bundles of fluff, mischief, and kisses. Their mama Ivy is incredibly intelligent, gentle, and devoted and her puppies are already showing those same smart Border Collie traits. Whether theyre tumbling over each other in play, chasing toys at lightning speed, or melting into your arms for cuddles after a busy puppy adventure, these babies are impossible not to fall in love with. Dottie, Indie, Palette, Smudge, Picasso, Ink, and Sketch are each their own little work of art full of personality, curiosity, and puppy charm. They are looking for families ready for all the fun, chaos, love, and training that comes with raising a smart, active puppy. From storm drains and hollow trees to soft beds, full bellies, and second chances. personality notes: Meet Pallette Dont let her small size fool you Pallette may be the runt, but she has a quiet strength and sweet spirit all her own. Pallette is naturally a little shy and cautious around new people. She prefers to take her time deciding whether youre worthy of her trust but once you earn it, she becomes your loyal little sidekick and best friend. Shes playful with her siblings, surprisingly tough for her size, and has a funny little personality that grows bigger every day. Watching Pallette gain confidence and show more of herself has been one of the sweetest things to witness. This girl may do best with a patient family willing to let her settle in at her own pace. The reward? A deeply loyal companion who chooses you. Personality highlights: Sweet but cautious with strangers Loyal once bonded Playful with siblings Quiet confidence Funny little personality Tougher than she looks Gentle soul with growing confidence Pallette is proof that sometimes the smallest pups carry the biggest personalities.   **Adopters must be able to pick up in Niagara Falls, NY** Neutered: Not yet Good with Women: YesGood with Men: YesGood with Kids: No exposureGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: No exposure House trained: Working on itCan be touched/handled: YesEnergy level: High-puppy energyFlight risk: Unlikely but always best to be safe until comfortable in new surrounding.
