Meet the Xmas Pups – Jingle Bells, Holly, Mistletoe, and Tinsel
This delightful quartet of 8 week old Lab mix puppies is as merry and bright as their name suggests. Rescued together and now thriving in their foster home, they are growing into confident, gentle, affectionate companions who bring joy to every corner of the house.
Daily Life in Their Foster Home
The Xmas Pups begin their day around 7am, untangling themselves from the cozy puppy pile in their large shared crate. Once the door opens, they make a beeline for the backyard for a morning potty break and a burst of zoomies. Breakfast follows, along with a full hour of outdoor exploring: chasing each other across the yard, wrestling over toys, chewing sticks, and trying their best to keep up with the resident dog and cat.
By mid-morning, their adventurous spirits give way to snuggles and naps. They curl up with their foster family in the kitchen before drifting off to sleep. When the humans leave the house, the pups stay in a spacious kitchen-area setup with beds and toys. Their preferred spot, however, is all together under the kitchen island, tucked into their own little puppy fort.
Lunch is served around noon, followed by another round of playing and napping. Dinner arrives at 5pm, fueling a final stretch of romping before the family settles in for the evening. The pups happily pile onto the living room couch to watch TV and enjoy gentle cuddles. After one last trip outside, they head to bed at 10pm and sleep soundly through the night.
All four puppies are gentle, snuggly, good with other dogs and cats, able to climb stairs, and already crate trained. They play beautifully as a pack, though the “leader” tends to rotate daily.
Jingle Bells (M – blue collar)
Jingle Bells is the curious explorer of the group, often wandering off to investigate new sights and smells. He’s confident without being pushy and doesn’t let his sisters boss him around. Mealtime is a full-body experience for him— literally— because he enjoys his food so much that he tends to step right into the dish! He’s endearing, adventurous, and full of happy energy. And a foodie in the making, so training should be a breeze!
Holly (F – purple collar)
Holly is the easiest-going pup of the litter and the first to flop over for well-deserved belly rubs. With her soft, toasted-marshmallow coloring and natural charm, she even seems to enjoy posing for the camera. She is playful in the gentlest way, often chewing on her siblings during playtime (who take it in stride). Holly has an incredibly sweet, balanced temperament and loves any opportunity for affection.
Mistletoe (F – yellow collar)
Mistletoe has the most outgoing personality of the bunch and instantly gravitates toward people. She loves all humans and isn’t shy about requesting attention— she’ll raise a paw as if politely asking to be scooped up. During meal prep, she can often be found sitting on her foster mom’s feet like a tiny sous-chef. She is social, warm-hearted, and eager to bond.
Tinsel (F – pink collar)
Tinsel shares Jingle Bells’ adventurous streak and carries it with a confident, independent spirit. She explores the yard on her own and is usually the last puppy to come back inside after outdoor play. She has a natural sense of leadership without being bossy, and she approaches the world with curiosity and poise. Tinsel is brave, joyful, and ready for her next adventure.
The Xmas Pups are now ready for homes that will guide them through puppyhood with consistency, gentle structure, and plenty of affection. With their sweet natures, growing confidence, and love for both people and other animals, they are sure to bring warmth and cheer to any family lucky enough to call them their own.
