Story
All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.  * If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption Fee: $800 Cuba is a 3 year old Havanese who was rescued from the shelter. He came in terribly matted with an overgrown coat so the shelter gave him a good haircut and promised they would find him a perfect place to land. Cuba weighs 20 pounds. This world traveler can’t wait to share his adventures with his new forever home! Cuba has a non-shedding coat which makes him an option for those with allergies or who just want less hair around the house.    Cuba is the world’s most outgoing, smiley guy who loves nature almost as much as he loves snuggling into his bed for naps! He loves meeting new people and showing off his cute face. Once he chooses you as his person, he will loyally follow you from room to room as you go about your day. Cuba is a cute bouncy ball of fur running around the house. He has a huge mountain of dog toys he carefully selects from every day. Cuba loves hiking and runs so an active home would be a fabulous fit for this dude!  Cuba’s day starts at 7 AM with a walk in the back garden before breakfast. He then gets a longer walk around 8:30 AM before a nap in his crate while his foster mom gets some work done. During the day, he enjoys some games of fetch and chase in the backyard which he loves. He gets a longer walk at 5 PM before dinner at 5 PM. He winds down with his foster family until bedtime at 9 PM when he heads to bed in his crate and sleeps the night away.  Cuba is a “one dog in the home” kind of pup. He gets along with other dogs once they have a calm intro, but he would prefer not to share the affection of his forever family. Cuba is getting better at his leash walking skills, but will need a home prepared to continue the training he has started in his foster home. We will be looking for a home who can demonstrate their plan for continued learning.    Cuba is only an option for those with prior dog experience. He is only an option for those who are prepared to continue his training and who have a plan for grooming. Kids in the home should be over the age of 12.April 23, 2024, 2:29 am

Story
All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.  * If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption Fee: $700   Holden Caulfield is a 2 year old Havanese mix who leapt straight off the page into our hearts! This boy was surrendered to the shelter after his former home had a change in circumstance and were no longer able to care for him. After some TLC in the form of a haircut and lots of snuggles, Holden clambered into the lap of his rescuer and gave her endless kisses and cuddles. Holden has a coat that will need grooming but he may not be an option for those with allergies.    Holden is a loving, friendly, playful, and all around best selling kind of guy! He adores his people, he loves his treats, and he is in love with life! He’s the kind of dog that just makes life better by being in it. Holden adores his toys and quickly showed off his fetch skills in his foster home (even though he’s still working on the bring it back part). Holden is smart as well and performs tricks on request as long as you have a treat on hand. This boy always has a smile on his face and a wag in his tail as he trots happily alongside his people. For those who love the Havanese breed, you will find that Holden is the absolute best representation of the breed you’ve ever seen. Once you meet Holden, you’ll forget what your life was like before he came into it.  Holden wakes up at 7 AM and heads outside to go potty and find his toy of the day. After he comes inside, he gets his breakfast which he gobbles up with a wagging tail. In the morning, Holden lounges around the house with his foster sibling and sniffs around outside. He taught himself how to play solo fetch, so he can easily keep himself occupied if his home works out of the house. In the afternoon, Holden gets a walk and some training time. He has dinner at 6 PM before he gets some playtime in the yard and some cuddles on the couch. After one last trip outside at night, Holden heads to bed to dream of adventures ahead!  Holden lives with another dog and absolutely adores his fellow canines. He would be a fabulous playmate for a resident dog or as a solo buddy for his new family. Holden is still working on his training skills but with his intelligence, we know he will win ‘Best in Class’ at any obedience school. Don’t delay bringing Holden home today!   Holden is only an option for homes who have owned a dog in the past, even if that experience is less recent. Kids in the home should be over the age of 8.April 23, 2024, 2:29 am

Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption Fee: $700   Fairy is a 1 year old Havanese x Shih Tzu mix who sprinkles magic and pixie dust wherever she goes! Fairy was rescued from the shelter where she was left by her former home through no fault of her own. We promised this fantasy girl the best new life and her wings fluttered with delight as she made her prison break! Fairy has a lovely coat which will require regular grooming, but she isn’t an option for those with true allergies. Fairy promises to bring endless joy to her forever home!    Fairy is a cuddly, loving, smiley, and all-around perfect gal with pixie dust to boot! Fairy is the kind of gal who’s looking for her BFFFL in her forever people. She adores following her people around on all of life’s adventures, big or small. Fairy loves life and her wagging tail backs up that assessment. She loves playing with her toys and her entire body wiggles to show her excitement when the ball comes out for fetch. Fairy loves cuddling but also wants to explore the world, if you’ll come along for the ride or course! Fairy could be an amazing companion for an active day (hikes, parks, walks) followed by a movie night or a night on the town. She would be the perfect WFH coworker as well, even if her job is more “enjoyer of treat” then accountant pro. Fairy just radiates joy and love for those around her and it shows in how she makes any new person her forever pal.  Fairy starts her morning at 7 AM with a big stretch and some cuddles. At 8 AM, she gets a walk around the block where she greets her neighborhood pals. Breakfast is at 8:30 followed by a long snooze on her dog bed and playtime with her endless supply of soft toys. She gets a snack around 1 PM followed by another walk at 2 PM. Her afternoons are filled with sunning herself, napping, and encouraging her foster parents to play with her. At 6 PM, she gets a longer walk around the neighborhood, getting all her zoomies out before returning for a prompt 6:30 dinner appointment. After she eats, she relaxes for the remainder of the evening before going out for one last potty trip. Bedtime is at 9 PM and Fairy happily snuggles into her crate where she dreams of pixie dust and treats!  Fairy gets along with dogs and plays well with them. She walks well on the leash and prefers to stick close to her people. Fairy is fully house trained and crate trained. She’s a smart gal as well, so prepare for afternoons of trick learning (as long as you’ve got treats on hand). If you’re looking for your cuddly bestie, you’ve met your match in Fairy!   Fairy is an option for homes with prior dog experience even if that experience is less recent. Kids in the home should be over the age of 7.April 23, 2024, 2:29 am
