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.



Our 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' litter are ready to join their new families just in time for the holidays! And at 5 months old they are a fabulous bunch. They have been wonderfully socialized in their foster home and all of them have amazing personalities. They are sweet, loving, affectionate and playful. They can be adopted in a pair or individually. They would make a great companion for an existing cat or cat savvy dog in the home. They can also join a home with children. Here are some individual characteristics about each of them.

Cindy-Lou Who: One magical night, I followed a shimmering moonbeam that led me straight to DPS Rescue. I'm a sweet, friendly, and cuddly kitten, always ready for a snuggle or a playful adventure. If you're looking for a loyal companion to share in all of life's magical moments, I'm the perfect kitten for you. Just stare into my beautiful blue eyes and let's start our enchanting journey together!

Groopert: I'm super friendly, cuddly, and oh, I love to play. My days are filled with goofy antics and funny purrs that will surely make you laugh. If you're looking for a smart companion, pick me, my foster home says I could be leash trained. I also think I am a bird at times, climbing up on my foster dad's shoulders while he walks around the house. Let's create our own exciting stories together. I am a wonderful boy!

Grinchy: I'm cuddly and love snuggling up with humans. My foster home says I take over the bed at night, sprawling out in complete relaxation. When I'm not curled up in a warm lap, I'm exploring every nook with my boundless energy. I'm sweet and have a big heart, ready to share all my love. If you're looking for a spirited and affectionate companion who promises to fill your home with joy and adventure, I'm your boy!

Izzy: I have a big heart. I love cuddling up with my human friends and sharing sweet, quiet moments. Although I'm a bit shy at first, once I warm up to you, I'm the most loyal friend you could ask for. I even like to sleep close to my humans, keeping them company through the night. If you're looking for a gentle companion to share in all the cozy, peaceful times, I'm the one for you. Let's make a home together!

They have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, dewormed, flea treated and microchipped. Their adoption fee is $200 each of $350 for a pair.

More about this rescue

We are passionate folks who love dogs and love people! We strive to make the most appropriate match between human and canine. Because our dogs live in foster homes we know about their temperament and personality and therefore can help families and individuals decide if the dog is a good match or not. We are excited to help people find the right pooch for them and look forward to meeting great folks and welcoming them into the DPS Family.
