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: $700

  

Boo is a 4 month old Dachshund mix who is looking forward to showing her forever family how boo-tiful she is! Boo and her brother, Bones, were surrendered to our rescue after an accidental litter led to Mom saying “no more dogs in the house”. We agreed to take in this sibling duo and scooped them up, promising that they’d be dressing up for Halloween with their forever homes in no time. We suspect there may be two dads for this duo as they both have a unique look. Boo weighs 8 pounds as of Sep 17 and we expect her to be in the 15-18 pound range as an adult. With Boo, you’ll never be scared again! 

 

 

Bones (M): Bones is a sweet and sensitive little guy who can’t wait to take on the world with his forever home! He loves his toys and adores being near his people. Bones adores his foster siblings and gains confidence watching them zoom around until he jumps in on the action. Bones is also starting to figure out how amazing a long belly rub session is, and would be a fabulous companion for someone looking for a loving and sweet puppy. Bones has very expressive eyebrows and soulful puppy dog eyes that make him impossible to resist. Whether it’s more cuddles or another treat, you can’t say no to Bones! Bones will be the perfect size for any adventure you have planned this fall, from apple picking to a hay ride. He promises to be up for it all! 

Boo (F): Boo is an outgoing and silly girl who is ready to be the belle of the Monster Mash Ball! She is super smart and amazes her foster people every day with her charm and wit. Boo is the leader of the daily agenda and happily zooms around as she plays with her toys and her brother. Boo loves her cuddles and will roll right over when you scratch behind her ears or rub her belly. Boo is the perfect size for whatever adventures you have planned. Trips to the cafe? She says ok! Boo loves her people and can’t wait to show you how smart and awesome she is. With Boo in your life, you’ll always look on the bright side! 

 

 

Boo and Bones wake up at 7 AM and show off their morning zoomies. They eat three times a day: 8 AM, 2 PM, and 8 PM. During the day, the puppies spend a lot of time romping around in the grass as they love being outside. They love their toys as well and show off their zoomies as often as they can, until they crash into a puppy pile and snooze the afternoon away. They each get some individual cuddle and socialization time once their people finish their workdays before they have their dinner. In the evening, the puppies curl up on the couch and get all the cuddles and kisses available. Around 9 PM, they head to their pen for the night and drift off to sleep curled together.

Boo and Bones have lived with other dogs and are respectful to their older canine foster siblings. They have been introduced to cats and were polite. The puppies will both require additional training and socialization to ensure they are well-rounded adults with their forever people. We are looking for individual homes for each puppy as we don’t place siblings together. Don’t let this spooky season pass you by without bringing home a spooky sibling today! 

 

 

Boo is only an option for homes who have owned a dog in the last 5 years. Kids in the home should be over the age of 9.

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.
