About Blitzen

Blitzen is part of the Reindeer Litter and has been waiting longer than her siblings for someone to notice her. At about seven months old, she's hit her stride as a playful puppy but shows a softer, gentle side. Blitzen often comes off as a bit shy at first, but once she warms up, she relaxes and turns into a real cuddle bug, especially if there's a blanket involved. Her foster reports that Blitzen is affectionate, pretty easygoing, and quietly playful. She loves dashing around outside with other dogs, then happily crashing for long naps. She’s finding her rhythm in foster care, settling well in her crate and doing well with potty training. She’ll even use a puppy pad when needed and is already starting to show that she’s smart and eager to please. Blitzen gets along with other dogs and is great with kids, so she’d do well either with a canine sibling or as a solo pet. She’s still young—past the tiny baby stage, but definitely still very much a puppy. After spending over 100 days in rescue, it feels like time for her to finally get the home she deserves. Blitzen is in Bristol, WI. As a Libra, she naturally seeks harmony and companionship. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
