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: $800

 

Lemon Meringue is a 1 year old Maltese x Yorkie mix who is looking forward to adding sugar, butter, and love to her forever family! Lemon Meringue was rescued from the shelter. We don’t know what her story was before we met her, but we know her future is looking sweeter than her namesake! Meringue weighs all of 4 pounds and is a true pint-sized pipsqueak! She has a hair type coat that could be a potential option for those with light allergies. If you’re ready for a delicious sweet treat, order our limited run Lemon Meringue today! 

 

 

 

Lemon Meringue has a bright and sunny personality combined with the cutest bat ears you’ve ever seen! This cuddle queen is a pro at getting her belly rubbed and showering her people in endless love. She has a playful spirit and shows off her zest for life as she chases her toys and lives life to the fullest. Meringue is ultra expressive and captivates anyone who meets her. Her “Baby Yoda” ears amplify her every emotion, making her an unexpectedly fabulous conversation partner. Her charm is irresistible and we know that once it’s paired with a closet of sweaters and dresses, everyone will fall madly in love with her. Meringue is the kind of dog who will happily match the energy of her people. She’s game to binge a Netflix series but she’s just as ready to check out the new coffee store (as long as they have pup cups)! Our girl is on a mission to win “World’s Most Affectionate Pup” and she’s tough competition to beat! You walk through the door and you’re greeted with Meringue doing her happy routine as she shows off for you. It’s hard to imagine how she can get cuter and then she goes and does it! This gal is the belle of every ball! Meringue is even a dancing queen! She has a tap routine and a bunny hop dance! Meringue is a true once in a lifetime dog and we can’t wait to see how she makes her mark on her new people! 

Lemon Meringue starts her morning around 7 AM with a quick outdoor potty trip on her favorite patch of grass. She nibbles on her breakfast until brunch like the little lady she is. During the day, Meringue alternates between snoozing on the couch, sitting in laps as she gets cuddles, and stretching her legs on short jaunts around the neighborhood. She loves to sit in front of the window and watch the world go by for hours! In the evening, Meringue goes on a longer walk before returning home for a good brushing session. She enjoys her dinner at 6 PM and then spends some time showing off her petite zoomies. 

Meringue lives with two little dogs currently and loves getting her play on with them. She does very well when she meets new people and is the star of the neighborhood. Meringue enjoys her jaunts around the neighborhood as she checks all her favorite sniff spots. She’s content to meander with her people on her little legs. Meringue is house trained. Meringue’s dream home is someone with a warm heart, a warmer lap, and an openness to a new best friend. She loves her people more than anything and can’t wait to find her new cuddle buddies. Speed on over to the DPS bakery and order a Lemon Meringue of your own today! 

 

 

Lemon Meringue is an option for those with prior dog owning experience. Kids in the home should be over the age of 13 due to her petite size.

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.
