Doggie Protective Services

We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) animal rescue organization based in So. CA who has established chapters outside of the area to attempt to place more of the dogs that are dying in the shelters in So. CA. Many areas do not have small breed dogs and we transport and meet with potential adopters because So. CA is deluged in small breed dogs.

Meet Mean Girls: Karen

This dog will be at a meet and greet event on Saturday, April 6th at the Palo Alto Pet Food Express from 12-3pm, unless he/she is set up and adopted prior to the event. Those interested in meeting the dog can come out to our meet and greet event. We no longer do application approval onsite. Anyone adopting has been previously approved and set up to meet prior to the event. Adoption Fee: $700   The Mean Girl puppies are a litter of 9 week old puppies ready for a lifetime of wearing pink! This litter is 4 girls and 1 boy. Mom is a mixed breed and we get to guess what those breeds are! These puppies are currently in the 5-6 pound range so we suspect they’ll end up around 12-15 pounds when fully grown. For those who love the terrier breed, you truly won’t find a better companion than one of these cuties! They are so fetch!   Cady: Cady is the epitome of calm and collected in the form of a cuddly and loving puppy! Unlike her brother and sister, she prefers to hang back and watch the action before hopping in on playtime. Cady prefers the quieter play options and is happy to play with a toy and her people. Cady is a total people person and just wants to get cuddles and belly rubs! This adorable girl would never let a Queen B stop her from loving on her people!  Gretchen: Gretchen is sorry people are so jealous of her but she can’t help that she is so adorable! Gretchen is laid back like her sister Cady and prefers a long nap in a lap than a rambunctious play session. She loves toys of all kinds and will drag around a toy twice as big as her if you try to tell her she is small. This girl is mighty! Well, when she’s awake that is. Gretchen’s ideal day? A movie marathon on the couch with her people (with both versions of Mean Girls, of course)!   Karen: What is Karen supposed to be? The world’s cutest puppy, duh! Karen is the Mama’s girl of the bunch and loves being anywhere her people are. Karen is the biggest cuddler of the group and loves sitting on your lap, on your chest, or just about anywhere that you will let her. Karen has an amazing ability to fall asleep anywhere, even when her siblings cause chaos around her. It’s like she has ESPN or something… as long as ESPEN means cuddles forever!  Regina: Her name is Regina George and she is a massive deal! Our Regina is nothing like her fictional counterpart, no Burn Book in her closet! Regina loves to play and is happy to follow around the leader of the group. Though if you mess with her, she will pounce back! Of course, a tiny puppy pouncing is just about the cutest thing in the world so we all let her think she is very fierce! Regina loves to snuggle and would be so happy to end her days with a “cool mom” who will let her snore the evening away!  Aaron: As the solo boy with four sisters, Aaron quickly learned how to turn on the charm! Aaron is a confident and playful boy who adores showing off his skills and tricks. Aaron loves wrestling with his foster siblings, but he also always wants to keep his people in his sights, scampering after them if they take their eyes off him. What can we say? When you’ve got a showstopper you’ve gotta keep your eyes on the prize! Aaron would love a sibling to spend his days playing with, but either way you’ll be getting the cutest boy in school!    The puppies start their day at 6 AM with breakfast as their pen is cleaned up from the night. During the day, they alternate between eating, playing, and napping on top of each other. They have attended several play sessions with humans and love zooming around with their toys as prizes. In the evening, the puppies have dinner before getting their snuggles and cuddles in. They end the day curled up together in their pen as they dream of the days ahead!  The Mean Girl puppies have been socialized with dogs of all ages and sizes and currently live with several dogs. They have interacted with the resident cat and were respectful. We expect interested homes to provide a plan for continued training and socialization to ensure the litter grows up into well-rounded adults! Don’t delay, make fetch happen today with a Mean Girls puppy!   The puppies are only an option for homes who have owned a dog in the last 5 years. We will be seeking individual homes for each puppy as we do not place siblings together. Kids in the home should be over the age of 7.

Adoption Process
We require an application from anyone who is interested in adopting. Then we require a phone interview, followed by a meeting in person. Then if the animal is a match, we have a contract and our adoption fee which is $400.

Look for other dogs for adoption!
