Manchester Terrier / Mixed (short coat) : : Male (neutered) : : Baby : : Medium
Learn more about the Manchester Terrier. Our little Peanuts are available for adoption! These little spitfires were born in rescue on 10/01/2020 to mama Lucy! We think mom is a Manchester terrier/ chihuahua mix (or something comparable). We do not know what dad was but some of the puppies have yellow lab characteristics (totally a guess)!
We believe these puppies will be medium sized when all grown up between 20- 30 lbs, maybe a little more for the big guy! Again just a guess as we have been surprised many times before!
These puppies are not couch potatoes. They are very smart, energetic and mischievous little boys! They are curious about everything around them and they like to get into, taste and play with anything and everything within their reach.
The puppies are working on housebreaking in their foster home but it is literally hit or miss. The three of them together keeps them busy and distracted from their foster moms attempts at training. We do expect them to do much better separated with one on one attention but please expect accidents in their new home as they will not have a routine established with you.
The puppies love and get along well with other dogs but are sometimes afraid at first. They have been socialized with dogs of all sizes and just take a little time to warm up. They have met a cat and honestly have no idea she’s any different. They have tried to interact but one hiss sends them running for cover.
That being said all three boys are very sensitive. They whine when they can’t find you and sometimes just because. They are not good watch dogs and in fact are huge scaredy cats most of the time. If someone knocks on the door you will find them looking to you for reassurance or in some cases hiding behind you until they know it’s okay. This may just be an age thing as mom is NOT shy at all but we we would highly suggest keeping them active and socialized not only with other dogs but people as well. Formal training and an agility class would definitely be a confidence builder as well as strengthening the bond between you.
Shermy is the middle child (by weight). He is by far the most sensitive. He is his moms favorite and her snuggle buddy! He always looks so worried but it’s because he has so many adorable wrinkles on his face! Shermy is hesitant to try new things but once he does them he seems to have the most fun! Like the others he loves to chew so durable toys and cow hooves are a must! He loves to run outside especially if he has someone to chase! He also loves to be on the couch and he loves blankets! He is very snuggly and is the first to give kisses. He’s just such a sweet boy and would thrive in almost any loving home!
This beautiful litter was born in our rescue. They are happy healthy puppies who have only known love. They enjoy their family, a comfy dog bed, full bellies and toys to play with. They deserve a family who will continue to love them and patiently train them to become great family dogs! If you think that family is you please don’t hesitate to apply! Shermy is neutered, up to date with vaccines, microchipped, flea/worm treated and tested neg. for heartworm. His adoption fee is $400
