My story

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

Ready for your sugar fix?  Meet Truffle.  He's one of Tiramisu's puppies.  He was found dumped, along with his mom  Tiramisu, and his siblings (also posted for adoption).   They were  brought to the local  shelter but the shelter was going to have to euthanize all of them.  Luckily the shelter's  Animal Control Officer reached out to one of our rescue partners to save them.  We stepped in to help get them vetted and find them forever homes.

Truffle is approximately 5 months old and weighs 15.8 pounds (as of 11/12).  His mom is only 18 pounds so we think he will be a small to medium sized dog when full grown.   He and his siblings are all playful, affectionate, and happy pups.  They give kisses to both adults and young kids alike, and love to have their bellies rubbed.  As with most puppies, they all love playing with toys and have recently  discovered the joys of splashing around in a baby pool full of water! 

Truffle is full of energy and is a playful puppy but he also loves to lay in your lap.  He's very affectionate.

He's received all of his puppy vaccinations and will be available to arrive on our next transport.

  • Personality: friendly, playful, energetic, loves to lay in your lap, likes toys and playing in water
  • Good with: people of all ages (including kids), and dogs.  Has not been cat tested yet.
  • Training: unknown at this time
  • Estimated date of birth: June 2025
  • Weight: 15.8 pounds (as of 11/12)
  • Medical: vaccinated, microchipped
  • Location: Currently located with a foster in Texas, but if adopted, will come to the NJ area on our next transport.
