Dogs of the Week: Puka and Maui (Adopted!)

Updated 10/21/2011: Puka and Maui have been adopted, but many other dogs still need loving homes! Check out our previous dogs of the week.

Original story:

Puka, a black and brown male puppy, and Maui, a fawn and white female, are a pair of 2-month-old short-haired shepherd mix puppies.

Puka is a sweet and playful puppy who loves to roll around in the grass. Maui is very loving and enjoys cuddling and lounging around.

Their mother is a short-haired shepherd mix that weighs about 35 pounds, and their father is a small to medium mix of some type. The puppies came from a litter of nine. Seven of their siblings were given away.

Both puppies are crate-trained, house-trained and learning to walk on a leash. They're current on their vaccinations, and they have been dewormed and treated for fleas.

Because they're puppies, they can easily adjust to any situation.

For more information on the puppies or any of our other previously featured dogs, call the Lovejoy Foundation at 310-350-0980, email the organization, check out its Facebook page or visit its website.

The Lovejoy Foundation is a Redondo Beach-based organization that holds pet adoptions on and at in Hermosa Beach.
