Meet Gladys a sweet 10-week-old girl who is ready to find a family to call her own! She may be tiny, but she has the potential to fill your home with endless love, laughter, companionship, and unforgettable memories. Gladys is being fostered in Whitecourt Alberta. Potential adopters must be willing to travel to Whitecourt to meet her.

At just 10 weeks old, she is at the very beginning of her journey. She is still learning about the world around her, and she will need patience, consistency, guidance, and plenty of affection as she grows into the wonderful dog she is meant to be.

🐶 What to Expect When Adopting a Puppy

Bringing home a puppy is an exciting adventure, but it is also a serious commitment. Puppies don't arrive knowing the rules of the house — they need time, structure, and positive reinforcement to learn.

Her new family must be prepared to commit to:

Potty training: Frequent trips outside, including first thing in the morning, after meals, after naps, and before bedtime. Accidents will happen, and patience is essential.

Basic obedience: Teaching important skills such as sit, stay, come, leave it, and walking politely on a leash through short, positive training sessions.

Socialization: Safely introducing her to new people, sounds, environments, and other animals.

Chewing and teething: Providing appropriate toys and redirecting little teeth away from hands, furniture, shoes, and anything else she finds interesting.

Time and attention: Young puppies need frequent supervision, regular meals, playtime, naps, companionship, and help learning to feel comfortable when left alone. Patience and consistency: Understanding that accidents, sleepless nights, crying, and setbacks are normal parts of puppyhood. Training takes time, and progress comes through repetition, kindness, and consistency.

A puppy should never be expected to learn everything overnight. She needs a family willing to teach her, guide her, and love her through every stage of growing up.

❤️ The Reward? A Lifetime of Happiness.

She won't be a tiny puppy forever. She will grow, learn, change, and depend on you through every stage of her life. She deserves a family that understands that adopting her means committing not just to the adorable puppy days, but to the energetic adolescent months, the adult years, and the senior years, too.

She needs more than a home — she needs a forever family.

If you are ready to offer patience, guidance, commitment, and a whole lot of love, this little girl could become one of the most rewarding parts of your life.
