Adoption Fee: $650 Get ready to meet the tastiest little squad in town—The Appetizer Litter!With March Madness around the corner, everyone is preparing their snack plates to settle in for some time on the couch, so why not add an adorable puppy to the playoff party? We’ve got the ultimate lineup of bite-sized perfection—meet the Appetizer Litter! These 3-4 month old Black Lab puppies were rescued from a shelter after being found abandoned in a field, and now they’re looking for their forever teams. They may have started as underdogs, but with their irresistible puppy breath and zoomies, they’re ready to bring home the championship trophy! This litter is 3 girls and 1 solo boy, the perfect pool! And before you ask—yes, they’re going to different homes, because every great team needs a star player! Fried Pickles (F): Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside—just like her namesake, Fried Pickles is a little bit of everything. At first, she might seem like the quiet one, letting her sister take the lead, but don’t be fooled—she’s just as playful and full of antics. She’s the ultimate sidekick, always down for a game of chase, a good chew toy session, or an all-out puppy pile. When she’s not busy being adorable, she’s practicing her 'puppy dog eyes' technique, which is already at a professional level. Looking for a sweet, playful pup who will follow you around like a shadow and give you the best snuggles? Fried Pickles is your gal. Jalapeno Popper (M): Spicy, cheesy, and full of personality—Jalapeño Popper lives up to his name! This little guy is a perfect mix of zest and warmth, always ready to turn up the fun with his playful antics. He’s the first to pounce on a new toy, the fastest to chase down a rolling tennis ball, and the most determined to wiggle his way into your lap for snuggles. Equal parts mischief and affection, he’ll keep you laughing with his goofy energy, then melt into you for a nap like he never caused any trouble. If you’re looking for a pup who brings the perfect balance of spice and sweetness to your life, Jalapeño Popper is your boy. Mozz Sticks (F): She may be named after something golden and gooey, but this little lady is as classic and sleek as they come—Mozzarella Sticks is a stunning black Lab with a heart just as soft as her namesake. She’s always ready to stretch the fun, whether it’s a game of chase, a tug-of-war battle, or zoomies around the yard. But when playtime is over, she’s all about the snuggles, melting into your lap like the cheesiest cuddlebug. If you’re looking for a pup who’s equal parts adventure and affection, Mozzarella Sticks is ready to stick by your side forever! Tater Skins (F): Soft, silky, and as golden as a perfectly baked potato skin (if potatoes were black, of course), Tater Skins is the queen of the court and the cuddle. She’s bold, confident, and always leading the charge when it comes to puppy playtime. Got a toy? She’ll be the first to steal it. Got a lap? She’ll be the first to claim it. She’s got energy for days, but after a solid round of backyard sprints, she’s more than happy to curl up with you for a cozy halftime nap. Bonus points if you have a comfy chair—she loves waiting patiently for you to sit so she can snuggle in. If you’re looking for a pup who will keep you on your toes but also melt into your arms, Tater Skins is ready to be drafted to your team. Labs are the ultimate companions—loyal, loving, and always by your side. Whether chasing soccer balls, camping, or riding shotgun, they’re the heart of the family. They sneak onto couches, leave dog hair everywhere, and make childhood memories unforgettable. But Labs aren’t just family dogs—they’re best friends. The kind who make solo road trips less lonely, listen without judgment, and stick with you through every triumph and heartbreak. From lakes to mountain trails, they’re your adventure buddy and your rock in tough times. Fiercely loyal and endlessly loving, these pups will give you their whole heart. These all-star pups are crate-trained (well, mostly), working on their house training, and have been getting plenty of practice in running, jumping, and overall puppy mischief. They love kids, are good with other dogs, and are guaranteed to bring joy (and probably a little chaos) to any home. These bite-sized bundles of love are ready to spice up your life with their playful antics, puppy snuggles, and endless enthusiasm. If you’ve ever dreamed of a dog who can keep up with your every adventure, look no further—these pups are the perfect starter course to a lifetime of love! The Appetizer puppies are only an option for homes that have owned a dog of their own in the last 5 years. Kids should be over the age of 8. April 3, 2025, 7:15 pm
