Jelly Belly

Jelly Belly is approximately 16 weeks old in these pictures taken March 20, 2008. He is a very sweet little boy that likes his tummy rubbed. Jelly Belly always has a smile on his face.

Jelly Belly and his siblings, Gummi Bear, Tooti Frutti, Tootsie Roll, and Jolly Rancher, were taken in by LP when a lady neighbor called stating that she was concerned about their owner, their mom, and them. The owner was a man on disability whose living conditions were not the best. He loved the dogs but could barely afford food for himself. The lady said that she would pay to have the mother spayed and wanted to know if we could help. Luckily we had a foster home open for the pups to go so we took them in.

We believe the puppies are a basic Heinz 57 type dog for our area. We see Shepard, Corgi, Elkhound, Keeshond, and the ears of a Shar Pei. Their mom was a medium sized long hair girl.

UPDATE - March 23, 2008:
From the foster parents.
Jelly Belly is doing great. He always has a smile on his face and is always a happy guy. Jelly Belly is such a handsome fella. His ears stand up more now than they did when he was small. His neuter went fine, no issues. He weighed 26.0 lbs.

All of the puppies are in a foster home, NOT AT THE SHELTER. A completed and processed application is required before an appointment will be made to see them. We appreciate your understanding as the foster parents and other shelter volunteers work and having a processed application saves time for everyone.
