Story
* To be considered for a meet/adoption, please read the full biography to see whether they may be a good fit for your home, then submit an online application at www.dpsrescue.org.* This dog will be at the Palo Alto Pet Food Express on Saturday, November 7th from 12PM – 3PM (unless adopted prior to the event). 3910 Middlefield Road All DPS Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, flea/tick treated, and microchipped prior to adoption. Adoption fee: $650 Pink Drink • Caramel Macchiato • Cold Brew Hound/Shepherd mix • 3-4 months old • ~20 lbs Warning: These puppies may cause excessive smiling, spontaneous baby talk, and an uncontrollable urge to say, “I’ll take one of each, please!” Meet the Starbucks Puppies, an adorable trio of Hound/Shepherd mixes serving up the sweetest drinks on the menu. They're loving, gentle, kindhearted, and absolutely crazy about people. Forget the caffeine boost. These babies deliver their energy in the form of puppy kisses, wiggly butts, and enough sweetness to make your usual Starbucks order taste bitter. And unlike your $8 coffee, these little cuties will love you long after the cup is empty! Pink Drink Pink Drink is pink perfection in puppy form! Sweet, lovable, and ready to make every day feel like a little treat, she's the kind of girl who would remember your name, spell it wrong on the cup, and still make your entire day. She's here to brighten your mornings, sweeten your afternoons, and remind you that life is better with a little extra love. Her ideal order? One forever family, extra cuddles, and an unlimited supply of belly rubs. No ice required. Caramel Macchiato Caramel Macchiato may be the smallest of the Starbucks puppies, but don't let her size fool you. This little lady has a personality that could take over an entire Starbucks location. She's basically a triple-shot macchiato with extra caramel, whipped cream, and absolutely no intention of being ignored. Adventurous and gloriously goofy, Caramel loves playing with her much bigger foster brother. She approaches life with fearless enthusiasm and expressive ears that seem to announce every thought before she even has one. When the adventure is over, she's perfectly happy to be carried around like the precious little princess she is. Lap time? Yes. Snuggles? Absolutely. Snacks? DON'T EVEN GET HER STARTED. She's a tiny cup with a whole lot of caramel, a generous swirl of sweetness, and a permanent reservation on your lap. Cold Brew Meet Cold Brew, the third member of this irresistible coffee-loving crew! Don't let the name fool you. There's nothing cold about this puppy's heart. This little sweetheart is part of a trio of people-loving pups who are ready to bring warmth, laughter, and plenty of puppy kisses to their forever families. Cold Brew is proof that the best things in life don't need a complicated recipe. Just add a loving family, a cozy place to nap, some fun toys, and a lifetime supply of affection. Looking for a daily pick-me-up that doesn't require a drive-through? Cold Brew might just be your perfect match! Growing Up Starbucks These puppies aren't just cute names on a coffee cup. They're genuinely sweet little souls who love people and want to be part of the family. They're gentle, affectionate, playful, and ready to grow up surrounded by love. They may be able to join families with children, other dogs, or even cats, provided introductions are thoughtful and the resident pets and children are a good match. After all, everybody deserves a chance to enjoy a little Starbucks! Like any young puppies, they're still learning the ropes. Their current hobbies include teething, chewing, playing, cuddling, and occasionally forgetting that the world does not revolve entirely around them. (We admire their confidence.) Rope toys and durable, puppy-safe chews will help keep those busy little mouths occupied. They haven't shown much interest in digging and generally aren't especially vocal, although every puppy has a voice and opinions of their own. These puppies already have a great start on the basics thanks to their foster families! Their new families can build on that foundation as they continue potty training, crate or pen training, leash skills, socialization, and learning what’s appropriate to chew. Puppyhood will still bring plenty of fun and learning, but they won’t be starting from scratch. With patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, they’ll be ready to keep growing into wonderful companions. The Perfect Order The Starbucks puppies are looking for families who understand that raising a puppy takes time, patience, training, playtime, and plenty of affection. They want to be included in the daily routine, whether that means hanging out on the couch, following you around the house, joining a family adventure, or supervising your morning coffee preparation. They could be a wonderful fit for families with children, dogs, or cats when everyone is introduced appropriately and the match is right. So, what's your order? A Pink Drink with extra puppy kisses? A Caramel Macchiato with a double shot of snuggles? Or a Cold Brew with a lifetime supply of unconditional love? Whatever your flavor, these puppies are ready to trade their foster home for a forever home. No mobile app. No complicated order. No waiting in line. Just a lifetime of love, served ridiculously cute. October 26, 2026, 6:24 pm
