Story
Meet Caramelo & Cameo These two adorable 5.5 month-old neutered18 lb pups were rescued in Puerto Rico, where there are simply too many dogs and not enough homes.  Now living safely in foster care, the brothers are thriving — playful, social, and full of love! With two sets of DHLPP and Bordetella vaccines, they’re healthy and ready for a family of their own. These cuties look like little Mini Pin/Whippet mixes, with shiny coats and big personalities to match. All they need now are fosters or adopters waiting to welcome them home! Please consider helping us give Caramelo and Cameo the future they deserve. Every foster and adopter saves lives!   Complete one of our online adoption applications today!
