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, December 21st and Sunday, December 22nd from 12-3pm or until adopted. If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered.

 

Adoption Fee: $850

 

Escargot is a 7 month old Bichon Frise x Poodle plating up a delicacy of puppy kisses and love! Escargot was rescued from the shelter as a matted lump of hair. This puppy needed a makeover and well… we simply had to take over, to quote Glinda! After several baths and two sessions at the groomer, Escargot’s gorgeous face emerged from behind his mask of matted hair. Now, he’s ready to rock and roll his way into your forever home! Escargot weighs 5 pounds and will stay under 10 pounds when fully grown. He’s a little guy with a big personality! Ready for the cutest little buddy? Order up some Escargot! 

 

  

Escargot is a petite, charming little gentleman with a coat of soft, curly hair. His bright eyes are alight with curiosity about the world around him as he zooms around with his collection of toys. Escargot is full of the perfect combination of spunk and sweetness. He loves snuggling up in laps or curling up on a blanket, but once you’re ready to play he’s up with a wagging tail! If you look up “cuddler” in the dictionary, you’ll find Escargot! He makes himself comfortable wherever he goes, whether that’s a lap, a dog bed, or your bed! He trots after his humans as they go about their daily routines and loves being part of the action. He’d be an amazing companion for a remote worker as he’s the best buddy for anyone seeking a cuddler. Escargot is very adaptable to the energy of his humans. His legs may be short but he can zoom with the best of them! Escargot would love a home ready to show him all the best in life, as he deserves all the love and affection! We can’t wait to see this fluffy prince thrive as he grows up!  

Escargot is an early riser because he knows the early bird gets the treats! He enjoys a brisk morning walk followed by breakfast and cuddles. He kicks off his afternoon with a midday nap in preparation for a walk around the neighborhood. Dinner is served in the early evening and then he gets one last potty walk before bed. During the day, he alternates between sleeping on his plush dog bed and his foster mom’s lap. He loves getting his daily nap punch card filled! He sleeps soundly through the night in his puppy pen where he dreams of all the yummy snacks in his future! 

Escargot loves dogs and cats alike and would love a playmate in his forever home. He loves saying hello to the neighborhood dogs and humans on his regular walks. He walks well on a leash and is mostly potty trained. Escargot is such a sweetheart and he charms even the most dog-hesitant people. You won’t regret ordering up this adorable little delicacy, so adopt Escargot for a culinary adventure.

 

 

Escargot is only an option for homes who have owned a dog in the last 5 years. Due to his small size, kids should be over the age of 10.

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.
