The Spice puppies are a litter of 10 week old Miniature Schnauzer x Husky mixes who are ready to add a sprinkle of cuteness and a dash of love to your home! This litter came to DPS at 4 weeks old with Mama Spice after an accidental litter led to a homeless little dog family. Dad was much bigger than Mom, we suspect, judging by the look and size of babies. This litter is 4 girls and 1 boy. We expect the puppies to be in the 20-25 pound range when they reach their adult weight. Looking for a new seasoning? Bring home a Spice puppy today!
Cinnamon (F): Cinnamon is a girl ready to live everyday to the fullest! She cuddles hard, she loves her toys, and she can’t wait to take on the world with you! Cinnamon is the quarterback of the puppy football team, charging fearlessly around the yard as she explores her surroundings. Cinnamon is the perfect puppy in terms of her energy level. She is playful and energetic until she is ready for a long snooze on the couch. She is an expert at finding the comfiest nap to curl up in as she gets her snuggles. Cinnamon is super smart and has already started picking up on a few tricks. If you have snacks she is ready to perform! This fluffy cloud of sweet, puppy energy is so eager to please you. She draws all the attention when she prances into the room, being passed around as people coo over her. There’s no spice as sweet as our Cinnamon!
Cumin (M): Cumin is an affectionate, snuggly puppy who is ready to make the world his playground! Cumin loves cuddling and is often found rolled over on his belly looking for rubs or finding a cozy spot to nap. While he loves to check out his surroundings (this dude is a world class couch spelunker), he is just as inclined to seek out the comfort of his humans. He is the perfect mix of playful and mellow. Cumin will thrive in a home where he can be your valued companion. He is adaptable and will fit in seamlessly to just about any kind of home. Cumin has striking blue eyes that make him stand out from the pack. He has such a calm demeanor and a deep affection for his family which makes him such a great buddy. Cumin is full of personality and charm and he can’t wait to bring a lifetime of laughter and love to his forever home!
Ginger (F): Ginger is an adventurous and curious puppy who can’t wait to bring the zest to her forever family! She loves to explore the world around her and it is absolutely hilarious to watch her brain work through problems in real time (why do sticks keep appearing in my yard)! Ginger loves cuddles and she loves her people. She would adore a home who wants to check out all that California has to offer: from sunny beaches to shady forests to banks of snow. Ginger is the class clown of the bunch, making goofy little noises even when she sleeps. She has the perfect level of mischief while still being as sweet as sugar. Ginger is always the winner at hide and go seek, finding places to squeeze into where her siblings can’t find her. If you’re ready for an infusion of flavor, pick up some Ginger today!
Paprika (F): Paprika is the star of every gathering, making everyone fall madly in love with her from the first moment! This gal loves to romp around the yard, exploring all the smells and sticks the grass has for her. Paprika likes to cuddle her siblings but when she smells adventure she is off! Paprika adores her people and has such a goofy, sweet temperament. Her foster family has crowned her the “pick of the litter” (but don’t tell her siblings). Her pointy little ears adorably fold back when she’s flashing her puppy dog eyes and she makes such an adorable picture as she greets you. She just wants to be your best friend and she knows the world is ready for her to take it on! Paprika promises to try all the snacks, take on all the trails, and take time to cuddle you. What more could you want!
Thyme (F): Thyme is a curious and smart puppy who loves cuddles almost as much as she loves her toys! Thyme is the leader of her siblings, always eager to play and romp around the yard. However, when she is ready for a rest she is snuggling her way into your lap and snoozing the hours away as you scratch behind her ears. Thyme is the best of both worlds temperament wise. She is playful when it’s time for fun but also knows when to chill out. She’d be a great hiking buddy or as a companion for a movie night. Thyme is so special and will bring endless joy to her lucky forever home. Thyme also loves a mirror and will check herself out in the window! How hilarious. Thyme is a total charmer with a personality absolutely bursting out of her body. She will bring such delightful adventures to her forever home!
The puppies start their morning around 6-7 AM with a trip outside to practice going potty outside. They tumble back in for breakfast and then get some one-on-one cuddle time for a bit before they are ready for their morning nap. After they nap, they cycle between playing with toys, chasing each other around the house, and investigating every blade of grass in the yard. They have lunch around 12 PM and then spend more time playing and sleeping through the afternoon. Once the family comes home from the day, they have their dinner at 5 PM. In the evening, the puppies spend some more time playing before they start to wind down from the day and get some more cuddles. They sleep in a pen overnight.
The Spice puppies have been well socialized with dogs in their foster homes. Their foster homes have been hard at work introducing them to people of all ages. Adoptive families should be prepared to continue training and socialization to ensure the pups are well-rounded adults. We know these puppies will have you falling in love from first glance because how could you not! Don’t delay, add one of these Spices to your spice rack today!
The Spice puppies are only an option for homes that have owned a dog of their own in the last three years. Kids in the home should be over the age of 7.
