Eclair's Story

All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.<br/>* 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.

She's definitely curious about people and responds best to calm energy. She can be startled easily but is becoming braver by the day. Her foster dad has become her favorite human and seeing her approach him for pets or attention is adorable.<br/><br/>Daily Life<br/><br/>Eclair is making so much progress! She now recognizes that the leash = walks (she may hesitate, but she’s learning and curious!) and enjoys slow, calm walks as she is still gaining confidence outside. She loves lounging near her people (and watching TV!) and uses potty pads reliably and is working on outdoor potty skills (when on leash, as she does not have yard access.) She currently lives with another calm dog and appreciates the companionship. Another dog in her forever home isn't a must, but would be a plus.<br/><br/>Why Eclair?<br/><br/>She may not run up to you right away— but when she chooses you, it’s everything.<br/><br/>Eclair is the kind of dog who forms deep, meaningful bonds. Watching her grow in confidence, trust, and love is incredibly special— and her future family will get to be part of that journey.
