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: $750

 

Dunkin Donut is a 2 year old Shih Tzu x Lhasa Apso mix ready to order up a pup cup and a donut with his new family! Dunkin was rescued from the shelter with some of his frosted friends. We don’t know what his story was before rescue but we know his future is bright and full of snacks! Dunkin weighs 14 pounds and has a gorgeous non-shedding coat. He will require regular grooming and is an option for homes with allergies. Come pick up your mobile order and bring home some Dunkin Donuts today!

 

 

Dunkin is a snuggly and loving gentleman who has a heart as big as a Venti cup! Dunkin is the perfect pup for a family hoping for a snugglebug who can also keep himself occupied as needed. He is a friendly and easygoing gentleman who makes besties wherever he goes. He has journeyed to many local coffee shops and loves people watching from his foster mom’s lap. Dunkin is also an amazing host, dazzling newcomers with his temperament, wagging tail, and cuddly demeanor. Dunkin is also super smart and very food motivated, which makes teaching him new things a blast for everyone involved. He would love a playmate in his forever home as he has a ton of playful energy to spend. Dunkin may be small, but he knows how to tackle any adventure you throw his way, as long as he can end each day cuddled in your lap as you watch TV! His foster says he is one of the best fosters she has ever had the pleasure of hosting. He is a true gem who is ready to make his lucky new people so happy for years and adventures to come! 

Dunkin starts his morning between 7:30 and 8:30 AM with some cuddles and a treat. He eats his breakfast and then heads out on his morning stroll. He trots along for 30 minutes and then comes home for a well-deserved nap. During the morning, he alternates between cuddling on the couch and playing with his toys. He goes on another short walk around 2 PM before he plays with a puzzle toy. He has dinner at 6 PM and then settles onto the couch for some serious snuggles and love. After one last potty walk at 8 PM, he heads into his crate for the night around 10 PM. 

Dunkin gets along very well with other dogs, especially those who like to play. He loves meeting new humans. He is working on his leash walking skills and performs for cookies! He is house trained and crate trained. He is basically the perfect pup who knows what a gem he is. If you’re ready for your fix of caffeine, adopt Mr. Dunkin Donuts! 

 

 

Dunkin Donuts is an option for just about any home, regardless of experience. Kids should be over the age of 7.

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.
