Stripe is a bold little puppy with a playful spark. He is one of a litter of 11 puppies who were found abandoned in a box at a veterinary office in San Bernardino when they were only about a week old. The puppies were taken to the San Bernardino City Shelter and then divided among several rescues because newborn puppies require constant feeding and care. Stripe came to us with his brother Gizmo, and both boys have been doing wonderfully.

Stripe was the bigger of the two brothers and has always been a strong, determined little guy. He is very playful and curious, and he is just starting to show his fun, spunky personality as he explores and plays with Gizmo. Even at such a young age, he loves to wiggle, climb, and investigate everything around him.

We are not sure of Stripe’s breed, but he is expected to grow into a medium to large dog. Like all puppies, he will need a dedicated adopter ready for training, socialization, and puppy antics.

Puppies require a significant time commitment and patience. Gizmo and Stripe are still babies and will need guidance as they grow. This includes house training, crate training, basic obedience training, socialization, and learning appropriate chewing and play behavior. They will go through teething, may have accidents, and will need consistent structure, positive reinforcement, and supervision.

We are now accepting applications for Gizmo and Stripe, with the goal of placing them in their forever homes once they are fully weaned (around 6 weeks of age) so they can begin bonding with their families. Adopters will be required to bring the puppies to our veterinarian for vaccinations and neuter once they are age appropriate.

If you are looking for a playful, outgoing puppy to add to your family, Stripe may be the one for you.
