They are now 9 weeks old. Their mom is a Shih Tzu and dad is a mystery. When their original owner realized there were simply too many dogs in the home, she made the responsible decision to surrender the puppies to DPS Rescue so we could find each of them a wonderful family. Now Jury is ready to present her case—and the evidence overwhelmingly proves that she is easygoing, affectionate, smart, silly, and extraordinarily adorable. A Social Butterfly With a Silly Side Jury LOVES people. She happily follows her foster family around, always interested in what everyone is doing and eager to be part of the action. She is confident and outgoing rather than shy or timid, greeting life with a happy smile and plenty of enthusiasm. This funny little girl will grab a stuffed toy, race off for a round of zoomies, and spring right back when called. When she gets especially excited to see her people, she jumps into the air and practically twirls with joy. She is energetic, playful, and endlessly entertaining—but once the fun is over, she is equally happy curling up in a lap for some cuddles. Friends, Toys, and Puppy Adventures Stuffed toys rank very highly on Jury’s list of favorite things, but she is also delighted by her medium-sized resident Doodle foster sibling. She is curious and interested while remaining respectful, making her a promising candidate for a home with another friendly dog. She sometimes joins in with a bark when the resident dog starts barking, apparently assuming that whatever he has to say must be worth repeating. Jury has also demonstrated a surprisingly reliable recall for such a young puppy. Even in the middle of an exciting zoomie session, she comes springing back when her foster calls her. She is bright, engaged, and eager to learn—an excellent combination for continued puppy training. Potty-Training Prodigy For a puppy this young, Jury is doing exceptionally well with potty training. She uses potty pads reliably, will also pee outside, and has already chosen a favorite outdoor bathroom spot. She is quickly learning the “go potty” command and will make little noises around 6:30 a.m. when she needs to go outside. Thanks to her excellent potty-pad habits, her family does not necessarily have to race out of bed immediately. Jury is also comfortable when left home alone in an appropriate puppy setup and settles without difficulty. The Perfect Home Jury would thrive with a family excited to engage with a social, intelligent puppy. She would love people who will include her in daily life, play with her, continue her training, and appreciate both her energetic antics and affectionate cuddles. As a young puppy, she will need a family prepared for all the usual puppyhood adventures, including continued housetraining, socialization, teething, and learning good manners. The Trial puppies will each be adopted separately so they can bond with their new families and grow into confident, well-adjusted adult dogs. Final Ruling Jury is easygoing, happy, clever, cuddly, and hilariously entertaining. She is also so adorable that her future family should be prepared to answer questions from admirers everywhere they go. After reviewing all the evidence, we find Jury guilty on every count: excessive cuteness, possession of irresistible puppy charm, and stealing hearts without remorse. August 18, 2026, 7:11 pm
