Story
We took Rascal in after his abusive owner went to jail. We have been trying to get him into a home and its been a challenge because of his age and the fact that he has some aggression. He has no teeth so he requires food that can be smashed. He has been around my dogs and my kids and the only time he gets aggressive is when he thinks he needs to "protect" like when my boys are playing fighting. I think he has been through alot and it probably sets him off from his past. With his past owner he was living in a storage and also outside in a freezing car. We havr gotten him to a point where he is so much better. We just cant keep him much longer. We have a really busy schedule and nobody is home during the days to let him outside. But he is a sweet and loves his blankets.

Story
I’ll be honest, I wasn’t quite sure about the people here and did a lot of growling at them at first. Then they discovered the way to my stomach….chicken, cheese. Oh boy, what to do to get more? A little leaning against their leg, and there I got a snack and some gentle petting. Wow, I finally realized that this place is safe and their staff is simply amazing. I even let them pick me up now. Look at my big smile!

Story
What’s the best way for me to say I love you? A wagging tail with a big smile and of course my puppy eyes. Look at my face…everyone thinks I’m a puppy…but I’m not. That’s so funny – I’m just a little dog that loves to have fun with toys. I enjoy making people smile and relax. Watch me running with a toy in my mouth and having fun or just sitting and looking at you with one of these killer head tilts…Sweet, fun, playful, affectionate and so much more. Did I convince you to complete a questionnaire?

Story
🦌❄️ Dasher — Yes, That Dasher (of Reindeer Pup Fame)Every holiday story needs a gentle soul… and Dasher is absolutely that guy.Born into the legendary Reindeer Pup Litter (with siblings Donner, Blitzen, Vixen, and Dancer), Dasher didn’t come charging out of the gate — he tiptoed in with soft eyes, a calm heart, and a strong preference for cuddling over chaos.Dasher is the reindeer who volunteers to ride in the middle.The one who checks in on everyone.The one who says, “We good?” before nap time. 🥹At just 11 weeks old, he’s already showing what a thoughtful, sensitive little soul he is. He’s sweet and affectionate with people, loves snuggling, and prefers quiet confidence over rough-and-tumble play. He enjoys playing with his sibling Dancer, but is a bit shy with bigger dogs — the kind of pup who would thrive with an older, calm dog sibling to show him the ropes (or be perfectly happy as your one-and-only).Dasher listens beautifully for a baby, comes when called, and is already doing great with potty pads and outdoor potty breaks. At night, he sleeps tucked safely in an enclosure with his sibling, and during the day you’ll find him curled up on the couch next to a human, soaking up love like it’s his full-time job.He’s gentle, submissive, playful in a soft way, and just a little shy — the kind of puppy who doesn’t demand attention but absolutely melts when you give it.If you’re looking for a puppy who feels like a deep breath, a cozy blanket, and a quiet Christmas morning all rolled into one tiny reindeer…Dasher is ready to trot straight into your heart.⸻📍 Dasher’s Details • Name: Dasher • Sex: Male • Age: 11 weeks • Weight: ~7 lbs • Breed (best guess): Chiweenie / Pit mix • Location: Prentice, WI🐾 The Important Stuff • Housebroken: Working on it — doing great with pads & outdoor potty • Crate trained: Yes • Leash trained: In progress and doing well • Kid friendly: Yes • Dog friendly: Yes (shy with larger dogs, loves calm pups) • Cat friendly: Indifferent • UTD on vaccines: Yes (rabies when age-appropriate) • Microchipped: Yes • Neutered: No (too young)💵 Adoption Fee: $500 + $150 spay/neuter deposit👉 Apply to adopt Dasher: www.biggiepawsrescue.orgDATCP # 494550

Story
⚡ Meet Blitzen ⚡(One of our festive Reindeer pups — quiet sparkle included.)Blitzen is part of our adorable Reindeer litter, and while she shares the holiday theme with her siblings, she brings her own gentle kind of magic. She’s the soft twinkle of lights on the tree — calm, sweet, and quietly stealing hearts without even trying.This little lady can be shy at first, but once she feels safe, her personality shines through in playful bursts of zoomies, toy tossing, and cozy cuddle sessions that end with her snoozing happily on your lap. She loves being close to her people and has a special talent for curling up exactly where she belongs — couch, bed, lap… dealer’s choice.Blitzen enjoys playing with other dogs and does especially well with calm, friendly companions. She’s also perfectly content being an only pup, soaking up all the love and attention. When the world feels a bit big, she’ll tuck herself under a table or bed to recharge — then pop back out ready for affection like nothing ever happened.She listens well, comes when called, and is learning all the important puppy things at her own sweet pace. With patience, consistency, and lots of love, Blitzen will grow into a loyal little shadow who sticks close and loves deeply.⸻🐾 Blitzen at a Glance • Age: DOB 10/21/2025 • Sex: Female • Weight: ~7 lbs • Breed (best guess): Chiweenie / Pit mix • Location: Kenosha, WI🏡 Home Life • Housebroken: Working on it; uses puppy pads and goes outside • Crate trained: Eats and relaxes in crate • Leash trained: Working on it • Kids: Yes • Dogs: Yes • Cats: Unknown❤️ Personality • Sweet, gentle, and affectionate • Calm with playful moments • Loves cuddling and lap naps • A little shy, very loving • Enjoys toys and doggy friends🩺 Vetting • Up to date on age-appropriate vaccines • Microchipped: will be • Spay: too young💰 Adoption Fee$500 adoption fee + $150 spay depositDATCP # 494550
