Safe Haven of Iowa County

UPDATE: Latte did go home with a retired couple about a week ago to see if he would fit into their lifestyle.     The answer to that question is that he will not unless they are ready to be a lot less 'laid back' than they are used to because he is going to remain a terrier permanently and a puppy for a little while yet.     In other words he is looking for a more active home and ready to go, go, go.
 
 Latte and her 3 littermates were rescued in Texas, and flown to Iowa by volunteer pilots, who donate their time and aircraft rescuing animals and helping them find their way to less crowded shelters in the Midwest. 

Latte's mother was a Rat Terrier mix (photo down below)and the father was possibly a Chihuahua (???) ....however that guessing game is always a fun game!  The original owner would not give up the mother,  however he did agree to have her spayed so there will be no more unwanted puppies born to her!  We also have a group photo of all 4 puppies down below, and Latte is on the far right in that photo.

Latte is a typical adorable puppy (11 weeks old) that loves to run and play, but needs a family that can also commit to working on house-training, which requires a lot of patience and persistence with working on a schedule, as puppies need to be taken outside frequently - as often as every 4 hours in the beginning.  So an ideal home for these puppies will be one where they won't have long periods of time during the day spent alone, so they can have the best chance of successful housetraining and have years of wonderful love and devotion to focus on!
