Puppy parents…!

The first few months of a puppy’s life can shape their entire future!

Puppies exposed to new sights, sounds, and experiences in a positive way without trauma before 14 weeks have been shown in research studies to grow into more confident, well-adjusted dogs.

Early socialization can help to them learn faster, solve problems better, and reduces fear-based behaviors. Who would deny a no cost way to help their fur baby be smarter, more resilient, and a better problem solver? Yet, people everyday do not take this essential step.

Every interaction counts! Safe (to the puppy, not you) introductions to people, other dogs, and different environments build resilience and emotional stability. A well-socialized puppy is less likely to struggle with anxiety and reactivity later in life.

🐶 💡Don’t wait—give your pup the best start possible. Whether it’s puppy classes, positive experiences at the vet, or fun adventures outside, every moment matters.

JJ is available for adoption! ❤️ We had the pleasure of fostering him during his quarantine period. He is a sweet and lovely boy. Let’s find him a great home, please share!

With mixed emotions, JJ is now available for adoption! Like all dogs who come to FLFO, we fall in love and it's very difficult to let them go. But we cannot bring more dogs into our program if we keep them all! Please share JJ's information on Petfinder https://www.petfinder.com/dog/jj-60ba934b-e796-4ac7-94b5-948df421f6ca/md/baldwin/four-legged-forgotten-oldies-senior-animal-farm-inc-md532/details/ and Adopt-a-Pet https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/46711189-baldwin-maryland-yorkie-yorkshire-terrier-schnauzer-miniature-mix . Adopters must be within 40 miles of Baldwin, MD.

Let’s see your snow dogs!

This is Peeko’s first snow with us! (Thanks to my hubby for clearing him a path and taking him out, hero!) He is now buried under blankets and hibernating the rest of the day.
