Description:

In a season full of unwanted litters being born to pet owners, a Wheeler Co family only added to the already high statistics that plaque our county. The only good thing about this family failing to be responsible pet owners is that only five pups, not ten or more, were in need of rescue. We call this litter our “Castaways”, naming them after characters from the old TV series “Gilligan’s Island”

Gilligan could be the main character of this litter as he always seems to be the one in the middle of the mischief they all seem to enjoy. Gilligan loves playing with his siblings and definitely loves his interaction with people, being well socialized towards both people and other dogs. His classic brown and white coloring has all the earmarks of being part Chocolate Lab and but his shorter-than-normal legs lead us to believe there may be some Beagle or some other type of hound mixed in. Regardless of his breed mix, Gilligan will make a great family companion and should adjust into just about any home situation with ease.

Gilligan is still undergoing his vaccination period but will have already received two of his three first year puppy vacccines before being released to a home. While he can be pre-adopted now, we won’t release Gilligan to his new home until Nov. 7. He’s already been de-wormed, treated against parasites and started on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. His adopter must agree to having him neutered once he reaches 6 months of age and providing proof of such to our rescue. A microchip will accompany his adoption.
