Meet Espresso! ☕ Born on May 22 as one of 12 adorable puppies to a beautiful Redbone Coonhound mix mom, Espresso is a playful, adventurous girl with a personality all her own. Her mom is a 50 pound girl and we feel that daughter Espresso will be as well. At 12 weeks she is barely 12 pounds.
Espresso is affectionate—but on her own terms! She's an independent puppy who enjoys exploring, investigating new places, and figuring things out for herself. While she's confident doing her own thing, she also loves spending time with her sister, Caramel. True to her name, Espresso is always ready to go! Playtime is her favorite time, and she has plenty of energy to burn. She's a bit of a tomboy who enjoys rough-and-tumble puppy play, so any interactions with other pets should be supervised while she continues learning appropriate doggie social skills. Espresso would thrive in a home with a larger, calm, well-socialized dog who can help teach her good play manners and when it's time to take a break.
When it comes to training, food is definitely the way to Espresso's heart! She's highly treat-motivated and eager to learn when snacks are involved. She's already doing well with potty training and understands what "potty" means when she's outside. She's still learning that her crate is a safe, cozy place and will benefit from continued positive crate training.
Like any growing puppy, Espresso is currently teething and thinks almost everything looks like a chew toy. A puppy-proofed home and plenty of appropriate chew toys will help keep her happy—and your belongings safe! One thing Espresso has already mastered is riding in the car. She settles in quickly and makes an excellent travel companion for errands or adventures.
Overall, Espresso is a sweet, spirited puppy with a fun-loving personality and an independent streak. With clear boundaries, consistency, patience, and positive training, she's sure to blossom into a wonderful lifelong companion. If you're looking for an adventurous best friend who will keep you smiling and make every day a little more exciting, Espresso may be the perfect addition to your family.
