My littermates and I came to SPCA as tiny neonates and were lovingly bottle-fed. Now we're ready to find homes of our own! Hello, I'm Kumara! 🧡 I'm a sweet little puppy who has had a very special start to life. I was once a tiny baby relying on humans to help me grow, and now I'm ready to find my very own people to love and learn from! I've got lots of growing, exploring and learning ahead of me. I'll need a family who is prepared for all the fun (and occasional chaos!) of puppyhood, including training, teething, new experiences and establishing a good daily routine. I'd really love a home with a friendly resident dog who can be my big brother or sister and help me find my paws. Dog-savvy children could also be a good match if they understand how to interact safely and gently with puppies. Confident cats may be suitable with appropriate introductions and supervision. Puppy school will be an important part of my journey, helping me learn good manners, build confidence and develop into a happy, well-adjusted dog. I'll also need a securely fenced yard where I can safely play and explore. Could your home be the one where my next chapter begins? I'd love to grow up as part of your family! 🐶
