Meet Lorcan, a six week old Cattle Dog/Chihuahua puppy.
Lorcan is from a litter of nine puppies that came in as part of our My Last Litter Program where we spay Momma and adopt out the puppies. Their Dad is an Australian Cattle Dog and Mom is a Chihuahua mix who weighs around 25 pounds. Lorcan currently weights around 4 pounds so we expect him to be on the small side of medium sized when he is full grown. Him and his siblings are all very sweet and a blank slate for people to train into their perfect companion! They will be available to adoption on 9/18/24 but we are currently accepting holds on them. Please remember that Lorcan is a puppy and puppy behavior comes with the package. They need basic training and potty training along with being provided chew toys to encourage proper chewing habits. All puppies require socializing from a young age to help them become the best, most well-rounded dog they can be.
If you are interested in adopting this pet please fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.yakimahumane.org. A Yakima Humane Society staff member will contact you once your questionnaire has been processed. Adopters are welcome to visit the adoption center Monday-Sunday, that's right we are open all days of the week!
A Picture says 1000 words...right? While an animal's picture draws interest, the reality is that as a potential adopter most people would like as much information as possible about a pet. The Yakima Humane Society is an open admission shelter. What does this mean? Over 90% of the pets at the adoption center arrive as strays, no history of behavior or medical care is known. Adding a pet to your family is a big responsibility. Please research carefully and remember that adoption is life saving. Before you go searching for free puppies or puppies for sale, check your local Shelters for available dogs and puppies that have been vetted and are ready to go home. Adopt Don't Shop.
