Due to the fact the puppies have had so much publicity, we’re expecting a high number of applications. This means it may take us a little longer to give you a call, but our aim is to get back to everyone within 4 weeks. Thank you for your patience 💙

Lets find these pups their forever homes ☺️ (2/2)

✨Fun Fact Friday✨
Why do dogs tilt their heads?🐕🐾
💙 To hear more clearly
💙 See around their muzzles
💙 Pick up on facial expressions & emotions
💙 Show curiosity or encourage interaction
In humans a head tilt makes someone appear more empathetic & trustworthy. Perhaps dogs figured this out before us!
