***Theon is currently located in the Pennington, NJ area and only available for adoption in that area.***

SoCo Rescue had received a call from a young lady asking for help with a litter of newborn pups. We were told that the mom to the pups was unable to nurse and that if she did, it would put her life in jeopardy. We gladly offered help but ended up having to seek help from law enforcement to get the pups once our representative was on site and saw the horrid conditions in which these pups, and many other dogs at the same location, were receiving. The pups were only being fed twice a day by the owner when they should have received feedings every two hours. This explains why the pups were so malnourished and thin when they first came to us. And while the owner knew we were on the way to get the pups, gave two of them away to someone who also lived at the same trailer park. The officer gave the owner an option: surrender all the pups to SoCo immediately or face criminal charges. Unfortunately the runt of this litter didn't survive her ordeal and passed away shortly after coming to our rescue. 

Theon is the smallest of his litter mates but packs a big time personality. He's smart, affectionate and very playful, holding his own ground while playing with his larger siblings. We expect Theron to grow to a whopping 10 lbs

Theon has now received 2/3 of his first year "puppy" vaccines, been de-wormed and treated against parasites. His adopter must agree to having him neutered once he reaches 6 months of age and supply proof of such to our rescue.
