FOSTER PARENT COMMENTS: Vinnie is a sweet little guy!  He loves to play with the other dogs and children in his foster home.  He has acclimated very well to indoor living and is enjoying the finer things in life such as bones, squeaky toys and snuggles!  He is a big fan of belly rubs and is also quite ticklish.  Vinnie has the sweetest eyes and kindest heart.  He will be a wonderful addition to any lucky family!

EVERY DOG HAS A STORY:  A Good Samaritan rescued Vinnie and his  siblings, Violet  & Vegas, from the side of the road.  She reached out to BFPA for help and we were happy to bring these sweet pups into our program and help them on their journey to find their forever families!

ADOPTING A YOUNG PUPPY FROM BFPA: Requires that you live no further than a 30-mile radius from the Triangle area of North Carolina, as you must be close enough for us to meet all the medical procedures we cover before final adoption. We prefer to adopt young puppies to a single, couple or family who have previous experience owning a dog and live in a single family house rather than an apartment, condo or townhome. Any children in the home under 6 years old must have experience living with a dog in their home.

Some of the information contained in this biography includes approximations based on our expertise and is not guaranteed. We do home visits to finalize adoptions and/or deliver the adopted dog. Therefore, we prefer potential adopters live a reasonable distance to the Triangle area (Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill) of North Carolina.
