Poet

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 Mama Poet is a 3 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel mix ready to jot down her life story with her forever family! Poet came to our rescue with her babies when they were only a few days old. She has been an incredible Mama to her babies and is now ready to find a forever home of her very own. Every puppy eventually has to write their own story! We don't know what Poet's life was like before she was abandoned at the shelter with her babies, but we know that her future is looking bright! Poet is a petite gal with a fabulously fluffy coat matched only by her amazing temperament. Poet has a coat that sheds but may be an option for those with fur allergies, as her coat is a hair type. She will not require regular grooming but does love being brushed! If you're ready to write a love haiku, Poet is ready to go home with you! Poet is a loving and cuddly gal who wants to live her life to the fullest, as long as her people are next to her for the ride! Her tail never stops wagging when she is awake, and when she is asleep she wants to be as close to you as possible. She loves giving out kisses and her ideal home is one where her people are around to give her non-stop love and adoration. Poet is super smart and food-motivated and taught herself how to use her puppy dog eyes to get whatever she wanted from the moment she stepped foot in her foster home. She has a goofy cross-eyed stare that is hilarious for selfies and with a face as cute as hers, you will want to fill up your camera roll with her, we promise you! As long as you are willing to show Poet that you are ready to provide her with non-stop love, treats, cuddles, and kisses, Poet will be the most faithful companion you could ever ask for. She is very perceptive and would be a fabulous emotional support companion, as she can provide affection when she knows her people need it. What more could you want from an adorable furry family member? Poet also has a fabulous temperament that makes her an ideal companion for either a day at the beach or a day on the couch watching movies. While our gal doesn't have the opposable thumbs needed to craft her own written words, she will sit faithfully by your side as you construct a masterpiece! Poet has been an absolute delight in her foster neighborhood and we know that she will continue to charm the world as she inhabits it! Poet starts her morning at 8 AM with a trip outside for potty before she trots inside for her morning treat. She hangs out on the couch as her foster family gets ready for the workday and then tucks into her breakfast around 8:30 AM. Before everyone heads to work, she gets a walk around the neighborhood where she happily greets her canine neighbors. During the day, Poet spends her time snoozing in the sunlight, playing with her toys, investigating the nature in her yard, and ensuring the house is kept in order for her people. She gets another walk in the later afternoon once her foster people return from work and then she spends some time getting her zoomies out in the yard while dinner is prepared. After Poet eats her dinner at 7 PM, she gets another walk around the neighborhood as the weather cools down. She unwinds from the day on the couch where she soaks up snuggles as she watches TV. After one last potty trip, Poet heads into her pen for the night and drifts off into dreamland! Poet gets along well with the resident dogs in her foster home and would be a fabulous companion to a resident family dog but she would also be just fine riding solo. While Poet is happy to walk around the neighborhood and walks well on a leash, she does have a bit of a lazy streak and often convinces her foster family to carry her home once she decides she is done walking. Poet is working on her house training and obedience skills and would love a home ready to continue that training. She loves people of all ages and adores the kids in her foster home, especially when they slip her extra treats! Poet will have you composing verses for the ages with the love you have for her, so what are you waiting for? Poet is an option for any home with prior dog owning experience, even if that experience is less recent. Kids in the home should be over the age of 10.
