Moose'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. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.This dog will be at the Palo Alto Pet Food Express on Saturday, November 15th from 12-3pm unless adopted prior to the event. To be considered for adoption, pls submit an application in advance.<br/><br/>Adoption fee: $750<br/><br/>Meet Maggie and Moose!<br/><br/>These two 10 week old Labradoodle puppies are as darling as they come. Surrendered to our rescue by their previous owner, we were shown photos of their parents - a Lab and a large Poodle - both in the 50-70 lb range, so we expect Maggie and Moose to grow into medium-to-large dogs with that perfect mix of smarts, sweetness, and goofball charm.<br/><br/>While Maggie and Moose currently live and sleep together in their foster home, they will be adopted separately, as each is ready to bond and thrive in their own forever family. They&#39;re both crate trained and sleep soundly through the night, going to bed around 8 p.m. with a couple of potty breaks until midnight, then snoozing until about 6:45 a.m. They head right outside in the morning to relieve themselves before breakfast - softened puppy food, which they eagerly lap up. Moose, the larger of the two, tends to finish first but politely waits for Maggie before heading back out for a post-meal potty break.<br/><br/>Their days follow a happy, predictable rhythm: eat, play, nap, repeat. After breakfast, they romp around with toys, chase each other, or gnaw on sticks before settling into a cozy nap. They&#39;re still too young for walks, so most of their exploring happens in the backyard, where they love to sniff, sunbathe, and investigate everything. They&#39;re confident outdoors and not skittish, though a loud noise like a train horn will send them scampering behind their foster mom for reassurance.<br/><br/>During the weekdays, they lounge calmly by their foster mom&#39;s feet as she works, entertaining themselves quietly and learning how to be patient. On weekends, they soak up family time, playing and cuddling in equal measure. Both are affectionate, people-oriented pups who love human company - the kind of dogs who make you smile just by being near.<br/><br/>Though they share the same upbringing, their personalities are distinct. Moose is the cuddler - sweet, affectionate, and happiest with his head resting on your lap. He&#39;s eager to please and has a calm, gentle energy that makes him especially lovable. Maggie is the explorer - a bit more independent and curious, though she&#39;ll happily crawl into your lap when she&#39;s in the mood for snuggles. Both puppies are highly food-motivated, smart, and quick to learn - their foster says they&#39;re already working on &#34;sit&#34; and catching on fast.<br/><br/>Maggie and Moose share their foster home with a mellow Sheepadoodle and a 13-year-old boy, and they&#39;ve done wonderfully with both. They&#39;re gentle and playful, though as typical teething puppies, they do like to nibble. They&#39;re not barkers, don&#39;t dig, and only occasionally chew on things they shouldn&#39;t - a quick &#34;no&#34; and a toy swap does the trick.<br/><br/>Maggie and Moose will each thrive in homes that have space to play and people who are ready to raise and train a bright, affectionate puppy. A securely fenced yard would be wonderful, and plenty of love and consistency will help them grow into the incredible dogs they&#39;re meant to be.<br/><br/>Favorite thing about Maggie and Moose: Their joyful enthusiasm for life - whether it&#39;s bounding across the yard, responding to a whistle with tails wagging, or curling up for a cuddle, these puppies are all heart. Adopt one, and you&#39;ll gain a devoted, funny, and loving best friend for life.

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