Meet the Fire puppies — a litter that truly started from a tiny spark and has grown into a full-blown blaze of personality. These pups were rescued from the shelter with their mama, Fire, when they were just a day or two old. Mama is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel mix, and while dad remains a mystery. But let's get serious. Does anyone doubt he was a Pug? Um, no.... because these babies came out with undeniable smooshy faces and maximum charm. Raised entirely in foster care with a family and kids, they are exceptionally social, confident, and people-loving. When they’re awake, these puppies are absolutely on fire! Their days are filled with running laps around the room, chasing and wrestling each other, engaging in intense tug-of-war battles with ropes and toys, nibbling toes to get human attention, enthusiastically eating, and then crashing hard into nap time— usually piled on top of one another like a cozy little campfire (though if there are human laps available, that's always ideal!). They’re also impressively clever and constantly learning from each other, whether that’s potty training progress, discovering new escape routes from their play area, or figuring out how best to charm the humans. Potty training: Inside their x-pen, they have a designated potty area and use it well. When they’re out roaming and playing, they mostly return to two pee-pad-lined areas near the pen, with the occasional puppy accident elsewhere. Overall, they’re doing very well for their age and improving every day. Meet the Flames: EMBER – The Booper Ember is instantly memorable for her signature move: the nose boop. The easiest way to identify her is to lean in close, ask, “Are you Ember?” and wait for the quick lick to your nose. She’s athletic and bold, inheriting Mama’s impressive jumping skills. Ember is the parkour pro of the group, regularly leaping over makeshift barriers and inspiring her siblings to attempt the same (with mixed success). She’s also the first and only puppy so far to squeeze under a couch— and get herself stuck there— proving that confidence sometimes comes before planning. Laughter guaranteed! GLOW – The Squeeze Expert Glow loves laps and human contact but also has a fascination with tight spaces. Early on, she was a bit more cautious than her siblings, but now she’s just as adventurous— especially when there’s a narrow gap to explore. Whether it’s under furniture, between barriers, or in places you didn’t realize a puppy could fit, Glow will find it. If you’re ever counting puppies and come up short, look for Glow tucked into a cozy corner. Note: laps are quite cozy too! FLAME – King of Belly Rubs Flame is athletic, strong, and fast. Despite his tough exterior, he is a complete softie. He’s the first puppy to discover the joy of flopping onto his back for belly rubs— and once he’s there, he’s not moving. As long as the belly rubs continue, Flame is perfectly content. BLAZE – The Brave Boy The biggest of the litter, Blaze is outgoing and super playful. He thrives on activity but balances it with affection, often seeking out snuggles. He’s not a fan of being cradled like a baby, but hold him front-facing so he can see everything happening, and he’s happy. He's one who will love the Puppy Baby Bjorn so he can go along and check out everything that's happening! Once he's done with his adventures, he's ready to curl up in your lap and snooze. Daily Life: These puppies follow a predictable and healthy rhythm, cycling through play, potty, meals, more play, and naps throughout the day. They’re usually up and active between 5:30–6:30am and start winding down for the night around 8:30–9:30pm. They receive three meals a day (canned puppy food sprinkled with kibble), with kibble available to munch on during awake times. If you’re looking to snuggle up around the fire, add warmth and laughter to your home, and raise a smart, social, affectionate puppy, one of these pups may be the perfect match. These puppies are truly on fire—don’t get burned by waiting too long to apply.January 10, 2026, 11:40 am
