Meet the Puppy

Frenchie was dumped at the Humane Society, and the Humane Society reached out for rescue help! French Fry was named by a elementary school class who donated to Operation FAVOR. They graciously hosted a fundraiser for FAVOR, and as a thank you, we let them name a few pups. They thought French Fry was fitting. We aren’t sure why, but we can bet these kids were hungry when naming these pups.

Temperament

French Fry has QUITE the personality. She’s sweet and sassy, and could win an academy award for her acting skills… acting like she didn’t spill the water, or pull the tissues out of the tissue box, or sleep UNDER her dog bed instead of in it. She’s super fun, fiesty, and filled with love. She’s also incredibly smart, running into her crate when she hears her food getting scooped, waiting for her meal to be delivered. She can’t get enough of her human foster siblings, and likes to terrorize the house with her four legged foster sibling. She’s a spazzy, special puppy who will provide comic relief ALL DAY LONG.

Needs

  • Frenchie is an active spazz. She needs a backyard, or an active human to enjoy the outdoor world with. Traditional fencing is NOT required.

  • Frenchie will be best suited to an active family or couple, willing to give them regular walks, runs, trails, and adventures, and plenty of playtime. They should continue socialization with other dogs through puppy play dates.

  • Adopters should be ready to start PROFESSIONAL training with one of our recommended trainers around five-seven months old to continue proper dog socialization, work on nice leash manners using leash pressure, and heel-side walking, structured walking, place command, and prepare for off-leash remote collar fun.

  • As an organization, we prefer balanced training, and not “purely positive training.” Balanced training strikes a happy balance between a TON of positive rewards, but also rules, structure, and specific tools to set boundaries for our dogs. We are firm believers that the more rules you have for your dog when they are young, the more freedom they earn as they get older. So set down expectations and boundaries for your dog now with a trainer and the right tools, so they can be part of all the family fun! Those with balanced training experience, and experience with slip lead/prong/remote collar as communication tools are preferred!

Those who don’t believe in rules, routine, and structure for your dog, need not apply.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, we will only consider applicants where one adult has a more flexible schedule, as puppies are a lot of work, and will require potty breaks, exercise, training and continued human and dog socialization as they grow up.

Crate/Potty Training

All puppies and dogs rescued by FAVOR are crate trained, sleeping in the crate from 8pm-6am (with a potty break around 11pm), and accustomed to some day crate time as well. Puppies also understand the basic concept of peeing outside, but there is ALWAYS a transition period where crate cries and potty accidents WILL HAPPEN in a new home, as the dog transitions to new rules and ways to communicate.

We always recommend keeping dogs crated during nap times, bed time, and when they are alone to protect them from danger such as chewing on cords, socks, and other objects. Foreign objects can get stuck in their stomachs which can result in a very expensive surgery. We also encourage using the crate like a bedroom for your dogs as they get older, where they can take naps, take a break from human interaction, and have a time out. More importantly, the crate provides them a safe place to go to when things get overwhelming, like a lot of people, loud noises, extreme weather. Think of the crate as their “den,” and a place for them to unwind. We all need a break sometimes!

Vetting

All dogs rescued by FAVOR are:

  • Spayed/Neutered

  • Microchipped

  • Vaccinated for Rabies, Bortedella (kennel cough), DA2PL (distemper, adenovirus, parainfluenza, leptospirosis and parvovirus)

  • Up-to-Date on Flea/Tick Topical Preventative

  • Up-to-Date on Heartworm Preventative

  • Dewormed

  • *Rabies must be administered after 12 weeks of age. If puppies travel before 12 weeks, Operation Favor will refund adopters $15 towards the cost of their rabies shot.

Adopters immediate responsibility will include:

  • Required: Puppies WILL require DA2PL 3rd booster shots when age appropriate (between 14-18 weeks of age) at the expense of the adopter

  • Optional: LYME-LEPTO combination vaccine at the expense of the adopter
