UPDATE: SVEN has a full mouth of needle sharp puppy teeth and his eyes are a dark shade of blue (will probably end up being brown). He has become a very active puppy, enjoying a good bite of puppy food, a good crinkle toy, and a nice warm cuddle. He is putting on weight quickly and his paws seem to have doubled in size. He has all the makings of a lazy love-bug.
SVEN is a handsome fuzzy ball of fur and a toothless mouth - he started lifting himself up on his legs on 3/4/2016 and opened his black eyes on 3/5/2016. He is finicky on baby bottles, but pees, poops and rolls around like a champ!
We are looking forward to seeing his little personality develop and will update his profile as needed. He will be available for adoption in mid-May 2016.
SVEN and his 9 living littermates were found as newborns cuddling up to their deceased mother. The good samaritan found them just in time.

Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.
It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.
