Meet Peaches!Sweet little Peaches is a sweet puppy with a big personality packed into a tiny puppy body! Her dad is half malinois and he is about 50 lbs and mom is a beautiful pocket size pitt at only 30 lbs. Peaches was the runt of the liter and expected to remain on the smaller side. She loves her people and a active playmate would be great. She has lots of energy that she needs to let out and someone to share that with or a doggie daycare would be a plus for her and you. She happily shares her living space with her canine foster siblings, including a GSD, Great Dane mix, and two Beagles. She has not been cat tested. She also has not been around small children, seeing she is a puppy we feel she will be fine but we suggest children over 5.Peaches is already crate trained and settles nicely in her crate. She’s still a baby, so house training, leash skills, car rides, and basic manners are all works in progress—but she’s ready to learn! Puppy classes are strongly recommended to build confidence and bonding with her people. If she is the only dog in the home the training will help with her socialization also which is very important at her age.With Malinois as one of her breeds, Peaches will need a family who enjoys training and is ready to keep her busy both mentally and physically. In return, this sweet girl promises plenty of adventures in the years to come.And yes, she absolutely loves peaches—which is how this adorable little girl got her name!All known information about the animal is listed above.
