Whimsy

My story

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: $800 Meet Whimsy – a delightfully silly and sweet 10–12 month old Poodle mix who weighs in at a dainty 15 lbs and has enough charm to fill the whole room.   True to her name, Whimsy is full of playful spirit and cuddly affection. She starts her day promptly (breakfast must be served by 7am, thank you very much), followed by a walk and a burst of joyful toy time. Once she’s gotten her wiggles out, she’s perfectly content to nap beside you while you work or lounge with her head on your lap—whatever makes her feel close to her person.   Whimsy came to her foster home a little unsure but has shown she’s a quick study. She plays independently, entertains herself with her toys, and even takes time to “remind” the birds on the fence that she’s in charge of backyard security. She’s also a world-class collector: socks, napkins, shoes— if it’s left unattended, it just might end up in Whimsy’s bed like a tiny, fluffy dragon hoard.   She’s a great balance of energy and relaxation. Whether it’s a walk, a game of fetch, or some quality snuggle time, Whimsy’s ready for it all. She's not overly barky, but will chat with her reflection in the mirror or glass (she’s still figuring out that that other poodle is… her). She enjoys playing with her older Shih Tzu foster sibling and would do well with another friendly dog in the home. She hasn’t met cats or young kids, but older, respectful children would likely be a great match—just maybe not toddlers, as she still gets excited and might jump.   Whimsy is almost fully house trained and is crate trained for bedtime.   In short, Whimsy is a fun, affectionate, funny little pup who’s ready to be your shadow, your playmate, your cuddle buddy—and maybe your sock thief, too. If you're looking for a companion who brings joy, energy, and a whole lot of personality, Whimsy might just be your perfect match.                  July 21, 2025, 1:49 pm
