Story
Meet Puddles – the adorable terrier-Chihuahua mix looking for his forever home! This sweet boy came to us from Fresno with his sister, Ladybug, after their family could no longer keep them. They were shelter-bound, but luckily, they made their way to the Bay Area, and now they’re ready for their second chance! Puddles is a smart, active puppy who needs a family that can keep up with his energy—both physically and mentally. He loves other dogs and would likely do well with cats. Because of his sharp puppy teeth, we recommend a home with children past the toddler stage. At just 6 pounds now, Puddles will likely grow to around 15 pounds. He’s still learning what it means to be a family member, so he’ll need training, guidance, and lots of love. He’ll be fully vaccinated in just a few weeks and ready for walks, playdates, and all the adventures that come with being part of a family. Puddles is as cute as they come—help us find him a home where he can thrive!

Story
Kiwi is a 4 yr, 11lb Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix and was adopted by me, the owner, from her foster Mom in Berkeley. Prior to that, she was adopted by a rescue organization, Rescue the Underdog in San Francisco who got her from the Fremont SPCA. I believe she was found as a stray in Fremont. For the past 3 years Kiwi has brought joy into my life in so many ways, I have really tried my absolute very best to give her the best life I possibly can as a single person with limited resources. She is a silly, loving, energetic girl that LOVES going to dog parks, sniff walks, hikes, being outside and running around and cuddling with her owner. She ideally needs to be with her person at all times. She has some quirks and needs the right owners who are patient and knowledgeable about dogs in order to give her the best home and care that she needs. She loves fries, treats, pets, and trying to chase squirrels and birds in the neighborhood.

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.This dog will be at Palo Alto Pet Food Express on Saturday, May 3rd from 12-3pm or until adopted. If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered.   Adoption Fee: $650   Picnic is a 2 year old Jack Russell Terrier x Beagle mix who’s ready to open up the basket of life and choose the tastiest treat! Picnic was rescued from the shelter after being left behind at the local park and we scooped this 11 pound pint of adorableness promising nothing but love in her future! Picnic is a low rider so if you’re ready for a loyal and loving companion who keeps things cool as a cucumber, adopt her today!    Picnic is a loving and curious gal who can’t wait to explore the world outside her door! When she first arrived at her foster home she was a bit shy, but we soon saw her amazing personality blossom as she made herself comfortable. She loves keeping her humans company and is always down for a snuggle but she can also keep herself busy when she needs to. She loves snack time and is frequently found chomping down on an apple or a banana slice when her humans head to the kitchen. Picnic is a total lounger and she loves her stuffed toys which she uses as pillows when she snoozes. She is still figuring out how to “dog” but she is making great progress every day! She also loves her adventures though and is happy to trot by your side for miles at a time. Picnic would thrive in an environment where she can spend her days with her humans as she shows them love. She would be a fabulous coworker for someone who works from home or someone who can take a companion to the office with them. Picnic can’t wait to unwrap her new chapter and chow down with you!  Picnic starts her morning at 6 AM with a potty break followed by some snuggles. She goes out for her morning walk and then happily returns home for her breakfast with her humans. During the workday, she keeps her humans company from her soft dog bed, taking occasional breaks for romps in the yard or potty breaks. She rests for the remainder of the day and then has her dinner at 5 PM before her evening stroll. At 9 PM she goes out for one last potty and then she puts on her jammies and heads to bed! Picnic has lived with dogs previously and does well with calm energy. She would prefer a quieter adult only home, or a home with older kids. Picnic walks well on a leash and is completely house trained. Picnic is excited for a lifetime of adventures and snacks so come on down and meet our gal! May 2, 2025, 4:51 am

Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption fee: $650 Meet the Wine Puppies!   Introducing Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Sauv Blanc, and Riesling — a delightful litter of four Jack Russell Terrier mix puppies (10–11 weeks old) who were rescued from an overcrowded shelter. Despite their rough start, these little ones have blossomed into joyful, curious, and cuddly companions.   Their day begins around 7:30am with breakfast followed by some serious playtime. After they've run off some puppy energy, they nap in intervals, often cuddled up together or sprawled out with their favorite toys. Lunchtime is at 12:30pm, and then they enjoy a mid-day play session outside their pen. After dinner (around 6–7pm), they wind down with a longer playtime and lots of snuggles before bed.   Each of the Wine Puppies has their own special flavor:   Chardonnay – This brave little boy is the social butterfly of the bunch. Always the first to explore or greet you with a wagging tail, Chardonnay has a fearless, adventurous spirit. He’s also a total snuggle bug— his favorite move is doing a round of zoomies before leaping into your lap for a cuddle. He’s got the heart of a leader and the soul of a cuddle monster.   Pinot Grigio – Don’t be fooled by her initial timidness—Pinot Grigio just needs a few minutes to warm up, and then her playful, intelligent personality comes out in full. She’s a toy fanatic and a quick study, already mastering “sit” after just three tries! Gentle and smart, Pinot is as charming as they come.   Sauv Blanc – The mellow one. Sauv Blanc loves her cozy spots and is perfectly content playing independently or watching the world from a comfy perch. The most reserved of the group, she’ll quietly come over when she’s ready for affection and curl up beside you for a peaceful snooze. A sweetheart with a calm soul.   Riesling – Riesling is the quirky, fun-loving pup who always keeps things interesting. She’s full of playful energy, often leading the pack in a game of chase, but when she’s ready to rest, your lap is her favorite place to be. Training with Riesling is entertaining— she may get distracted, but when she focuses, she learns fast and gives it her all. She’s the perfect mix of silly and sweet.   Whether you’re looking for a bold adventurer, a calm snuggler, a clever learner, or a playful goofball, one of the Wine Puppies is sure to steal your heart.May 15, 2025, 5:12 pm
