Welcome Lennie to the RAGOM family! Lennie is one of 10 puppies from Alli 13-353 that came in from a breeder who retired due to health issues. Lennie was born on October 29, 2013, so he is 6 weeks old now. He is a very healthy, active puppy learning all about life. He enjoys romping with his littermates and our five children.
Lennie is a medium-sized male from this litter. He loves to play play play, and is so cute hopping around the pen. He recently had fun trying to catch mama Alli’s tail, especially as it went back and forth when her people came into the pen. Lennie enjoys playing with balls and was thrilled to get a taste of a real marrow bone that Alli had left. Lennie is currently 6 weeks old and weighs 6 3/4 pounds. He has been dewormed, has been treated for coccidia and giardia, and has received his first set of shots.

Lennie will be ready for adoption around the first weekend in January. He can entertain potential families at any time.
Please remember as you look at his adorable pictures:
- Puppies are a LOT of work in their first year!
- Puppies have a small, immature bladder and cannot go a full work day without being let out. You will need to make arrangements for someone to come in at midday until he is about 6 months old.
- Puppies NEED obedience, socialization, and manners training! RAGOM gets many unmannered and undersocialized dogs surrendered due to the simple lack of training and socialization when the puppy was young. This is a crucial time for puppies to learn about so many things!
