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.



This dog will be at Palo Alto Pet Food Express on Saturday, November 16th from 12-3pm or until adopted. If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered.

Squishmallow is a 1 year old English Bulldog ready to join your stuffed animal collection as a limited edition cutie! Squish was rescued from the shelter with her sister, Pizookie. We aren’t sure who left these two adorable girls behind, but we quickly stepped up to ensure they found the best forever homes possible. We will be prioritizing homes with Bulldog experience as this breed has unique quirks that make them the best! Squish weighs 40 pounds and is the happiest, goofiest little gal in the entire world. Seriously, look at that smooshy face and tell us you didn’t fall in love instantly! If you’re ready for a fabulous new best friend, come and pick up Squishmallow from the toy store today! 

 

  

Squishmallow is a total lovebug who is always ready for a snack and a belly rub! She adores her people and it has been amazing to watch her personality emerge more and more each day. She loves being part of the pack, clambering after her foster siblings happily. Squish is always down for a snuggle or a cuddle, and totally thinks she’s a lapdog even though she’s a bit bigger than the average lap pup. She knows how to capture all the attention in the room with her adorable face with her perpetual tongue sticking out. She’s a fabulous WFH companion as long as you’re happy with white noise in the form of Bulldog snuffles and grunts. Squishmallow is very much a couch potato type of dog, she’s more likely to snooze the day away than join an energetic hike. She does love a slow walk around the block though, as long as it ends with a sweet treat! According to her foster, Squish has been a perfect guest who is a total treat to spend time with. She lives up to her name with her smooshy face and her laid back personality. We know her personality will shine as she quickly wins you over when you meet her. 

Squish wakes up between 6-7 AM, but would absolutely sleep in as late as you’d like! Everyone starts their day by going outside to do their business before coming inside to scarf down their breakfast. She spends her days wandering the yard, napping on the couch, getting cuddles and scratches, and making an assortment of Bulldog noises. She loves hanging out in the yard and sniffing all the scents of autumn! She eats dinner between 4-5 PM and eagerly seeks out extra snacks that her humans might drop on the floor. In the evening, she lounges on the couch and watches some TV as she unwinds from the day. She goes out for one last potty at 9 PM and then follows her foster mom to bed where she cuddles all night long. 

Squishmallow currently lives with several dogs and gets along with them all. She adores people and is happy as long as she can soak up attention and affection. Squish is working on her leash walking skills and is making progress quickly! She would benefit from a home prepared to continue her training and socialization, as she wasn’t given the building blocks in her former home. We are hoping to find a home knowledgeable of the EBD breed so she can live her best and healthiest life! Come on down to the DPS toy store and meet our special Squishmallow! 

 

 

Squishmallow is only an option for homes with prior dog owning experience. Priority will be given to those with experience in flat-faced breeds. Kids should be over the age of 9.
