About Dillon

Dillon is one of four adorable puppies, each bursting with friendliness and joy. Their journey began when their pregnant mother found refuge with a caring family, who pampered her and her pups with love and kindness until they were ready to be weaned. Growing up in such a nurturing environment, Dillon and his siblings thrive on playtime—whether it’s with toys, children, or splashing around in the water during hot days. This little boy, at 14 weeks old and weighing 15 pounds, has already been neutered, microchipped, and is up to date on all vaccinations, including worming, plus he's on heartworm and flea prevention. Now, he’s looking for an active family to join in on his fun-filled life. His mom is a purebred tri-colored Sheltie. What a lovely little companion he will be!
