Here's what the humans have to say about me:
💌 Dear My Future Valentine,
Hi there… my name is Dustin, and I’m a 4-month-old puppy with a very sweet face and a slightly mischievous heart. 💘
At first glance, I might seem like the laid-back, easygoing guy - calm, cool, and innocent. But don’t be fooled… that’s all part of my plan. 😇 I’ve got a silly personality, a cute little stubborn streak, and just enough persistence to see if I can maybe get away with something I’m not supposed to do. (I mean, it never hurts to try, right?) 😏
I’m learning my manners and doing really well with potty training, and every day I get a little better. 👏 I’m smart, curious, and always watching to see how things work. When I’m not testing boundaries, I’m being sweet, snuggly, and charming - basically the whole Valentine package!
I’m still just a puppy, which means I’m learning, growing, and figuring out the world one paw at a time. What I really need is a patient, loving family who will guide me, laugh with me, and maybe forgive me when I give them that look after doing something questionable. (You know that look!) 🥹
If you’re looking for a Valentine who will make you smile, keep life interesting, and love you with his whole puppy heart, I think we could be a perfect match.
Love (and a little mischief),
Dustin 🐾❤️
We require an application to be completed prior to setting up a meet-and-greet. We do not offer "on-the-spot" adoptions. We do not adopt on a first-come, first-served basis. We do our best to match dogs with families that will be a good fit to help ensure a successful adoption. We reserve the right to decline any application for any reason.
Due to the nature of our adoption process, our fosters are usually only able to consider forever families within a reasonable driving distance of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. A vet reference is required, and a trial period will be completed before finalizing the adoption. Thank you for your understanding.
