Story
Mr. Little Potato Head! What a great name. To our best knowledge, probably a maltese poodle mix, he's approximately 3 years old and weights about 14 pounds. He is great with people and children. He walks well on a leash but does like to bark at other dogs, but will settle when you correct him. He loves to eat and is very food/treat motivated. He must have had a family before as he settled in with his foster very easily. He does well in car rides and loves his daily walks. Are you ready to incorporate him into your family!? SF Bay Area Adoptions only, please email if interested.

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   Casper is a 4 year old Maltese x Poodle mix who is looking for a family to share his spooky season self with! Casper was rescued from the shelter with a few of his Halloween pals! We don’t know how a guy as handsome as he is landed in the slammer, but we know that his future is looking as bright as a ghost! Casper has a non-shedding coat that will require regular grooming. He is an option for those with allergies, or who just want less hair around the house. Casper weighs around 10 pounds and is the perfect size for adventure! If you are ready for a friendly ghost of your very own, adopt our Casper today!      Casper is a loving and loyal pup who is looking for a family ready to cuddle him forever! He loves to be with his people and spend his time following them around faithfully, but he is also adept at keeping himself company when needed. He loves a soft dog bed and can cuddle and snooze like the best of them! If you are offering love and affection, he is ready to soak it up. Casper loves playing tug of war with his canine foster siblings and getting his zoomies on in the yard. He also loves snoozing the day away as he soaks up the sunshine. Casper is the perfect combination of energy. He is always down for playtime or walks but when it is time for relaxation, he is happy to curl up on the couch next to you and hang out until you are ready for the next adventure. This little foodie would be the perfect pal to join you on trips to the local dog-friendly breweries and promises to help you make new friends wherever you go! Casper’s dream home is a home where he is showered in the love and affection he deserves. He would love a pal of the canine variety but could also thrive as a solo dog. He just wants to be included in all the fun times you have planned and he promises to make it worthwhile! Casper’s foster says he is the best dog she has ever fostered which is one of the best compliments our foster homes can bestow on one of our dogs. She says he is the biggest lovebug ever and she knows he is a one in a million kind of dog. That’s the best endorsement we could possibly give one of our dogs, we promise!   Casper starts his moring around 6 AM when his foster mom wakes up and lets him out of his crate. He goes outside for potty before coming inside for his breakfast. He gets a short walk in the morning followed by a few games of fetch, which he is great at! He goes into his crate for a nap after his exciting morning of play and snuggles while his foster mom heads to work for a few hours. In the afternoon, he goes outside for a potty break and then plays some more fetch in the yard until he is ready for his evening walk. He then roams around the house for an hour or so with his toys while his foster mom unwinds from work. He gets his dinner at 6 PM and then plays in the living room with his ever-expanding pile of toys and plushies.  Casper gets along well with dogs of all ages and sizes. He is house trained and crate trained. He loves meeting new people and eagerly befriends everyone he meets. Casper has met a few younger kiddos as well as older adults and truly loves everyone, especially when they have treats for him! Toby walks well on a leash and has great manners when he meets other pups on his walks. He is house trained and crate trained. Casper is ready to show the world all he has to offer and he can’t wait to meet you. If you’re ready to meet the friendliest ghost ever, meet our Casper today!  Casper recently met our residence cat. He handled himself with the dignity we would expect of gentleman. He was not bothered or even intrigued by the cat. He could join a home that has a cat.     Casper 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. September 15, 2024, 3:29 am

Story
Dominic is the sweetest little guy you will ever meet. He's 8 lbs of pure love. After being found as a stray and being shaved, neutered, lots of teeth removed, top of head stitched up and lots of eye drops (forever), he still loves to go for walks, get hugged and kissed, hang out with his fosters other dogs, sit on your lap (all the time). He is super easy to bathe, quiet, uses the dog door 99% of the time, and sleeps through the night on top of the bed. 13-year-old Dominic has some hearing loss and will grab at food in your hand but doesn't bite. He likes tomatoes and cucumbers from the garden and shares his food with the other dogs. He will need eye medicine for tear production the rest of his life and is a good boy when putting the drops in. Dominic is good with other dogs and is an easygoing boy. His favorite forever home will be where he has a lap to sit on and someone home with him for much of the day.
