About Indigo

Indigo is a tiny little bundle of joy who’s currently soaking up his second chance at life, full of play, curiosity, and all the adorable puppy antics you’d expect. One minute he’s bouncing around with his siblings like he’s got endless energy, and the next he’s passed out in a little cuddle puddle like the world wore him out. Classic baby behavior. Indigo is exactly what you’d expect from a young puppy – playful, curious, wiggly, and full of love. Everything is brand new to him right now, and he’s learning about the world one toy, one tumble, and one tail wag at a time. Despite coming from a neglectful start, you’d never know it watching him now. He’s happy, bright, and soaking up every bit of care and attention like he was always meant to. He loves to play, enjoys being around people and his siblings, and has that sweet, gentle nature that just draws you in. And when he’s all tuckered out, he turns into the softest, snuggliest little baby. A little fun fact about Indigo: he may be small, but he’s got a big personality packed into that tiny body. He’s the kind of puppy who will trip over his own feet, bounce right back up, and act like he meant to do it all along. If you’re ready for a lifetime of love (and a little puppy chaos along the way), Indigo is ready to grow up right by your side.

Ideal Home

A family ready for the time, patience, and commitment it takes to raise a young puppy and guide him through training, structure, and growth.

Ongoing Health

Indigo is too young to accurately determine his adult weight, but he is expected to grow into a medium-to-large dog.

Training & Support

Since Indigo is still very young, he hasn’t developed set habits or manners yet. Puppies at this age are naturally good with just about everything, dogs, cats, and kids, but they don’t understand boundaries. That means things like chasing, playful nipping, or getting a little too excited are completely normal. In a new home, his family will need to gently guide him, teach him appropriate behaviors, and help him grow into a well-mannered adult dog.
