Shelty puppies -- males 10 weeks old

apologize that we had so many applications for these puppies that we could be selective about finding them the best possible homes. The only ones left are a female and the little male runt, Squirt, who will be neutered on 3/14/02. We would like a home with somone who is small dog-experienced. He would be fine with another small dog or with cats and we insist on someone who works at home or a young retiree. No children as he is really too tiny. These Sheltie mixes have a pure Sheltie Mom and unknown Dad, but we suspect terrier or something small. Adopted!
