My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped. 

* If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.



Adoption Fee: $600

 

The 10 week old Fashion Litter is turning heads at Milan’s spring runway shows (er, the spring garden show at their foster home ).

 

We first met the Fashion mama at   the shelter when her puppies were just five days old. With overcrowding and understaffing, the situation in there was dire; with very little attention, any number of them would've perished. We took their fate into our hands and whisked mom and these precious little souls to a foster home where they could be safe and thrive. The pup's mom did a great job raising this joyful bunch, instilling good manners and a friendly, silliness in them. Now it’s time for the Fashion stars to all find their forever homes. 

From the foster family:

The Fashion litter puppies have been very well socialized and exposed to everyday life. Contractors , teachers, family and friends (including kiddos )   are always delighted to play with them . Super-duper friendly, these pups have brightened the day of college students studying for exams, and visited companies to give "puppy love." These playful little ones are destined to become big icons, just like their namesakes. 

 

Their mom is a 40-lb brindle. Don't know the dad(s). These mixed-breed pups will be larger than mom when fully grown, and 100% awesome!  They will enjoy daily walks/runs and outings. They are a bright bunch, and should make for fun training partners. They ride well in the car.

 

The pups sleep together through the night and wake up very happy and ready to play. We head outside in the yard about 7am, before having breakfast. After breakfast, a good nap is due from all the activity. Put the day on repeat with more outdoor playtime and meals. Lights out by 8:30pm. 

 

Burberry (F) is a kind and gentle soul who loves a good playtime romp, and will then curl up next to you. She genuinely tries to engage our “I-don’t-like-to-play” senior dog, and hasn’t taken offense to his rejections. She keeps herself amused exploring and hanging with her siblings. Delightful!

 

Dior (M) is a charmer. He knows he’s outnumbered by females so he keeps himself relevant by being available to support whatever fun is going on in the yard. When he’s had enough, he takes himself inside for a rest. Great self-regulator :) Dior’s a loving soul and a good snuggler. 

 

Gucci (F), endearingly called Gucci-la (no idea how that started :), is always in the mix. With her head-turning looks, she zips around the lawn, checks in on what everyone’s up to, and enjoys the rotation of toys. So far, there isn’t a standout favorite - Gucci’s an equal-opportunity toy aficionado.  She greets you with tail wags and kisses.

 

Hermes (F) is a curious, soft-natured gal. She’s the first head to pop up when the foster mom greets the pups each morning. Excited for whatever’s in store that day, she’s a wonderful combination of warmth and playfulness. Magnetic personality! First one to learn the doggie door. 

 

Valentino (M)  - This dapper fella’ can be found solo or in the mix, and enjoys all the puppy playtime. He will explore on his own and mix it up with the group, rolling in the grass with his siblings . The only other male, he holds his own amongst his sisters. His wrinkly face gives him an endearing wise old-man look.

 

Check-out the last photo on Valentino's profile - it's a video of all the pups enjoying playtime in the yard.

 

A Fashion puppy would enjoy being a playful companion to your friendly dog, or could be solo in a home where love and attention is doted on them. Adopters should have had a dog in the last five years.  Kids in the home should be over the age of 8.
