The Babies Are Coming!

Greetings Everyone!

As you may or may not know, we at Metropawlitan Dog and The Collared Scholar participate heavily in dog rescue and rehabilitation. You may have caught a few of our posts about recent rescues like Rupert, Shadow and Lilly :)

Well, recently, we found out we have a new addition (or two!) coming to our tiny rescue!

Katie Earle, one of Metropawlitan's Managers and Trainer Extraordinare, has a passion for deaf dogs and is the founder of San Diego Deaf Dog Rescue. She was recently approached by a group trying to save two deaf baby Ibizan Hound Puppies. These babies are only 8 weeks old and were at risk of euthanasia as the breeder didn't know what to do with them. We stepped in.

When Katie told me about the babies, I was ecstatic - Ibizan Hounds are one of my FAVORITE breeds of all time. If you don't know what they are, picture a greyhound with Giant German Shepherd size ears that stand straight up! They are stunning dogs of the sight hound group.

Anyhow, the babies will be arriving this week so keep an eye out for them. They will be staying with Katie and I and accompanying us to the Met regularly until they are old enough to be left alone. The pups will receive some training, be spayed and neutered and vaccinated and then will be ready for their new homes (if Katie and I don't decide to keep them before then!).

If you are interested in adopting one of the babies or would like to learn more about our other wonderful rescued dogs, feel free to call us at 619-233-1364!
