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: $200 (We have had a wonderful sponsor who is willing to pay the rest of her adoption fee, so that it could be reduced)   Miss White is a 10 year old, 13-pound, Maltese mix who was surrendered to DPS when her former home decided they no longer wanted to care for her. This gal is looking for a home where she can live out her golden years in style and comfort and promises to provide humor and snuggles in return! Miss White has a non-shedding coat which makes her an option for those with allergies. Miss White has a heart murmur which has been diagnosed by our vet. She is not on medication at this time for the murmur, as our vet did not feel medication would be beneficial for her at the present, but it is something her adopters will need to monitor with their vet.   Miss White is a golden gal looking for her golden forever home! This senior would never let you think she’s 10 years old. While she is very low-key and laid back, she lives her life with enjoyment and bliss. Miss White loves meeting new people and has the ability to instantly settle in to any new environment. She is an amazing companion with the sweetest little personality contained in a beautiful little body. Miss White has a fun-loving spirit and a lot of pep left in her silvery steps. She enjoys her car rides and her daily walks in the neighborhood, greeting all her subjects with a smile. Miss White is the perfect mix of playful and couch potato with her wagging tail and bright smile.  Miss White starts her day at 7 AM with a big stretch and a potty outside. She trots inside for breakfast and then settles in on her daybed to snuggle the workday away. She is the ideal WFH buddy as her dream workday is treats, sleeps, and repeat. Throughout the day, she takes herself outside into the yard as needed, both for potty trips and to stretch her legs. She keeps the yard critters in check! Miss White has dinner at 6 PM and goes into the yard for some more sniffs and light playtime before she gets a long cuddle session on the couch between 7-10 PM. She goes out for one last potty session at 11 and then heads to her dog bed for a long slumber. Miss White gets along fabulously with other dogs and could be a great older sibling. She would prefer no loud puppies though, as they disrupt her important naps. She is a breeze to walk and is fully house trained. What more could you ask for? Miss White just wants a home ready to let her lounge and do some chill adventuring. With a face like hers, and the personality to match, what are you waiting for?    Miss White is an option for any home. For those with an open heart towards our gray-muzzled friends, she will be a loyal and loving companion. Kids in a home should be in their teens.May 4, 2024, 5:47 pm

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: $500   Louie is an 8 month old Maltese mix who is looking for his Musketeers! Louie came from the shelter with his two companions and was extremely ready to escape the confines of the kennel. After a good groom, Louie emerged from his matted coat. Louie has a non-shedding coat which will make him an option for those with allergies, or who want less hair around the house. Louie will require regular grooming.    Below is a note from Louie’s foster.  “Louie is a sweet, sensitive boy who is blossoming as he discovers the world around him. On his first days in his foster home, he was so terrified that we could barely touch him without him running to hide. In the days following, we started seeing his silly and curious side as he took his cues from our resident dogs. Now, he loves to follow us around and ask for pets. It has been so lovely to watch him bloom in our home as he has gained his confidence and we know his lucky forever home will have a blast with him.  Louie wakes up and goes outside for a potty around 7 AM. He comes inside for breakfast and then settles down for a luxurious morning nap next to his foster siblings. He goes out a few times throughout the day to get his zoomies out, but mostly sits quietly with his toys or naps next to us as we work. Louie has dinner at 6 PM and then enjoys some couch snuggles in the evening as we unwind from the day. He goes outside for one last potty at 10 PM and then curls up in his dog bed for the night.  Louie lives with multiple dogs and cats in his forever home and gets along with them all! He needs a slow introduction to people as he is quite fearful of new people, but if you are willing to put in the work, the effort is worth it! Louie is still working on leash introductions and will need a patient home ready to show him the ropes.  Louie is the kind of dog that will be so worth the effort and time he needs to settle in. When he is set up for success, he will adapt and integrate into his environment. Louie takes his cues from his foster siblings, so he will need a confident dog in his new home.”    Louie is only an option for homes who have prior dog experience, with shy dog experience prioritized. Louie would prefer a calmer environment, so no kids under the age of 15.May 4, 2024, 5:47 pm

Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption Fee: $700   Huey is an 8 month old Maltese x Poodle (Maltipoo) who can’t wait to find his new band of Musketeers! Huey was surrendered to the shelter with his pals after his former home was no longer able to care for them. Huey was very shy and matted when we took him into our rescue, and we knew he just needed some TLC to show us his awesome self. Huey has been building his confidence and is now ready for his next chapter. Huey has a coat that will require grooming but he won’t be an option for those with allergies. He is an option for those looking for a bestie though!   Below is a note from Huey’s foster.  “Huey is a sweet and loving boy who is just an amazing and wonderful buddy! Huey arrived very scared from the shelter and spent a week or so getting acclimated to our house. Now, he loves to quietly cuddle with me, laying with his head in my lap. He loves to be near me and our resident dogs, following me around the house as I go about my day. Huey is a true couch potato type of dog, happy to spend his day lounging on the couch and rolling over when he thinks he can get some pets. Huey has a hilarious hobby where he takes toys and socks and makes a little pile to cuddle on with his prizes. Huey is such a love and has been a fabulous temporary addition to our home.  Huey starts his day with breakfast at 7 AM before going outside for a potty break. During the day, he hangs out on the couch with my resident dogs, laying on a soft blanket and snoozing the day away. He spends some of his day outside, soaking up the sunshine and exploring his surroundings. He gets a walk in the afternoon when the weather allows, and is curiously learning from our dogs. He gets dinner at 6 PM and then cuddles up on the couch for the rest of the night.  Huey gets along very well with our dogs and would do well with a canine companion in his new home. He is mostly house trained and crate trained. Huey had never experienced a leash before he came to us, so we have been working on his leash walking skills as he gains his confidence. Huey is such a mellow guy, he will make your life complete!”   Huey is an option for a variety of homes, regardless of prior experience. While he would enjoy a canine companion in his new home, he could also be a solo pup. Kids in the home should be over the age of 10.May 4, 2024, 5:47 pm

Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption Fee: $700   Tulip is an 8 month old Maltese x Yorkie mix who is ready to bloom with love in her forever home. Tulip was rescued from the shelter after her former home was no longer able to care for her. This sweet girl is full of love, life, and happiness and would love to join any garden! Tulip is almost fully grown and will remain in the small range as an adult, so she’s the perfect adventure size. Tulip has a hair coat, so she will potentially require some grooming. She could be an option for those with dander allergies, though she is not hypoallergenic.    Tulip is the perfect dog for those seeking a spunky yet snuggly new best friend. She is just as happy to bounce around the yard with a toy as she is to settle down in your lap for a long snuggle session. There is no such thing as personal space to Tulip, she loves curling up in a little ball and soaking up all the love you have to give her. Tulip is figuring out her favorite things still but so far she loves LambChop toys and Nylabones. She would love getting the chance to raid a pet store with her new people and pick out a bunch of goodies! Tulip is oh so sweet and smart to boot! She is easy going but also up for adventure. Basically, whatever you are looking for in a new family member, Tulip is that dog!  Tulip starts her morning at 7:30 AM with a wagging tail as she heads out for a morning potty trip. She then trots back inside for breakfast, which she eats happily. Tulip spends her morning sunning herself in the backyard with her foster siblings, playing with toys and getting her zoomies out. Around lunch time, Tulip spends some time getting cuddled by her foster parents. It’s her favorite time of the day! In the afternoon, she’s back to more playing and snoozing until it’s time for dinner. She has dinner at 6 PM and then gets a short walk around the neighborhood. In the evening, Tulip snuggles on the couch with her foster parents as they watch TV until she heads to bed.  Tulip gets along well with dogs of all ages and sizes. She would love a playmate in her forever home. She loves people, especially those who have treats for her! Tulip has had no accidents in her foster home and is very polite when taking direction. Tulip walks well on a leash but would do well with continued training as she is still very much in the puppy stage of life.     Tulip is an option for just about any home, regardless of prior dog experience. She would be a fabulous first-time dog. Kids in the home should be over the age of 8.May 4, 2024, 5:47 pm

Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption Fee: $600   Bubbles is an 8 year old Yorkie x Maltese (Morkie) mix who is bubbling with love for his forever home! This handsome gentleman was surrendered to the shelter for reasons unknown, but we were told it was a suspected new baby and no need for an older dog. Well, we would never let anyone trade Bubbles in for a newer model so we scooped him right up and told him he would find the best second chance ever. Bubbles is a petite dude with a personality that is anything but! He may be reaching his golden years but he is just getting more handsome as he ages. Bubbles has a non-shedding coat that will require regular grooming to keep him looking sharp. He could be an option for those with light allergies, but not those with true allergies.     Bubbles is a handsome, playful, snuggly, and all-around perfect gentleman! Bubbles is very people-oriented and would love a home looking for a faithful shadow. He adores games like fetch and will romp around with his beloved squeaky toys for hours at a time. As much as he loves his toys, Bubbles is also a huge cuddlebug who loves finding time to park himself on a lap for as many cuddles as he can soak up. You would have no idea that Bubbles is getting up there in years because he doesn’t let anything stop him from living his life to the fullest. He’s even still learning new tricks, so take that old saying and prepare to flip it on its head with a boy like Bubbles. Bubbles loves getting out and exploring the world on his walks and will make such a lovely companion for any family seeking a loyal best friend for life.  Bubbles starts his day around 7:30 AM with a smile as he heads outside for a bathroom break. After he comes back inside, he gets his breakfast before his morning stroll. The rest of his morning is spent soaking up the sunshine in the garden. This boy loves the outdoors! Throughout the day, Bubbles is a faithful shadow to his foster Mama, keeping her company wherever she goes. He gets another walk in the afternoon before he takes a well deserved nap. In the evening, Bubbles has his dinner before he settles on the couch for some snuggles and affection as he watches his nightly programs. After one last trip outside to potty, Bubbles heads to bed in his soft bed where he sleeps through the night.   Bubbles gets along well with dogs of all ages, but due to his smaller size the larger dogs can be a bit overwhelming. He is fully house trained and crate trained and walks very well on a leash. He would adore a family ready to shower him in love and affection like he deserves. We know this fabulous boy has so many adventures to come and we can’t wait to see Bubbles take on the world in his next journey!    Bubbles is an option for just about any home, regardless of prior dog experience. He could be a first-time dog as long as a potential home is prepared to discuss grooming requirements. Kids in the home should be over the age of 7.May 4, 2024, 5:47 pm
