My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

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: $600

 

Michaels Phelps is a 4 month old Beagle x Jack Russell Terrier mix ready to dive in and win gold in your heart! MP arrived at only 10 days old with his Mama and siblings who have since been adopted. Now, this champion is ready to find a forever home of his very own (with lots of mantle space for all his medals)! MP is such a handsome gentleman and he’s so fabulous it’s hard to believe someone hasn’t already scooped him up. Michael Phelps can’t wait to leap into your arms and form the best relay team of all time with you! 

 

 

Michael Phelps is a handsome and affectionate little gentleman who can’t wait to spread his arms and jump into the pool of love you have ready for him! This dude is an All American Dream! He loves to play, zooming around the house with his toys (he even learned how to throw himself the toy, the little smartie)! He loves cuddling and would happily sleep in your lap for hours as you type away on your laptop. He’d be a perfect Zoom mascot as well with his adorably unique markings and goofy smile. Michael is super smart and food motivated as well. He’s already learned how to sit and he can’t wait to expand his skillset with you. Michael is also super excited to get out and explore the world outside his front door. Now that he’s had all his puppy shots, he’s ready for adventure with you! His fosters rave about Michael and say he’s one of the best puppies they’ve ever fostered. He’s just so friendly and special, what’s not to love. 

Michael Phelps wakes up between 5-5:30 AM as his foster mom starts work early, but he’s happy to sleep in when he gets the chance. He eats his breakfast before heading out on a short romp around the block. During the workday, he spends time playing with his toys and snoozing in the sunshine. He gets a snack in the afternoon and joins his people on the couch as they take a break. His afternoons are filled with zoomies and playtime. After work, MP goes on a walk around the block before he comes home for dinner at 7 PM. In the evening, MP gets all the cuddles on the couch as he gives out tons of kisses. He goes out for one last potty session and then heads to his pen for the night at 9 PM. 

Michael Phelps is super social with dogs of all ages and sizes. He loves the cat as well! He’d be a fabulous addition to a home looking for playful energy. This little man adores people and is always ready for a cuddle or a chance to show off his zoomies. MP is fully house trained and crate trained. He’s starting to learn how to walk on a leash and has a fabulous foundation of training for his forever people to continue. If you’re excited about a new loving member of the family, come meet our Olympian Michael Phelps! 

 

  

Michael Phelps is an option for homes with a readiness for all that comes with puppyhood. We will consider new homes as long as they are prepared to discuss training and socialization. Kids should be over the age of 7.

More about this rescue

We are passionate folks who love dogs and love people! We strive to make the most appropriate match between human and canine. Because our dogs live in foster homes we know about their temperament and personality and therefore can help families and individuals decide if the dog is a good match or not. We are excited to help people find the right pooch for them and look forward to meeting great folks and welcoming them into the DPS Family.
