Kermit 1991

4 months old · Adopted

Considering adopting? The first step is to complete our online Adoption Application.
Please do not call the shelter; do the application first.

Beaker (NOW ADOPTED) and Kermit are the last two Muppet Pups! These adorable fluffers were born at the shelter on 7/15/24, to mama Lexington, an approximately 50# husky. So far, Lexi isn't naming names, so we have no idea what else is mixed in with these cuties - they are a "husky/LeMutte" mix.

These big, bouncy, boisterous brothers are sure to capture your hearts. Since they are at least 50% husky, please research the challenges of huskies and husky mixes to be sure this breed is for you.

You're probably wondering how big they will be when full grown. So are we! Our best shot-in-the-dark guesstimate would be somewhere between mom's 50# and a hefty 85#. One of the GREAT things about adopting a mixed breed shelter pup is, you are guaranteed to have an absolutely unique individual! One of the FRUSTRATING things is, we cannot promise your new family member isn't going to require you to get a bigger car or house (ha). These fabulous pups are worth accommodating no matter how large or small they turn out to be - they are simply delightful.

Puppies require a lot of human interaction, and all puppies will benefit from obedience training and full immersion in their human household. These pups' ideal homes will have someone who can exercise them with a couple of energetic walks each day, plus commitment to training them how to be the best dogs they can be. They hope to have very few hours per day when they will be without the companionship of a human or other pet, and will reward their forever people with boundless love and loyalty!

All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Kermit is a suggested minimum of $150 (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts.

Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!
