Meet Starbucks: Caramel Macchiato

This dog will be at the Palo Alto Pet Food Express on Saturday, October 3rd from 12PM – 3PM (unless adopted prior to the event). 3910 Middlefield Road All DPS Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, flea/tick treated, and microchipped prior to adoption. Adoption fee: $650 Pink Drink and her sister Caramel Macchiato are fostered separately from their siblings and while the others have more of a hound look, these two have Shepherd colorings, though they are much smaller than your average Shepherd puppy. We like to call puppies like this Heinz 57s - they've got a splash of a whole bunch of breeds thrown in there! Whatever their mystery formula is, it's 100% cuteness. Caramel Macchiato may be the smallest of the five Starbucks puppies, but at 10 weeks old, this Shepherd mix has enough personality to fill the whole coffee shop. She’s mischievous, adventurous, and surprisingly good at finding a way out of her enclosures. She loves playing with her much bigger foster brother and approaches the world with fearless, goofy enthusiasm. Her expressive ears make every little thought look like a big announcement. When she’s ready for a break, Caramel is happy to be carried around. She also loves snuggling with her sister and never misses a chance to eat. She’s a tiny cup of trouble with plenty of sweetness mixed in. Growing Up Starbucks All of the Starbucks puppies are playful, loving, and wonderful with children. They enjoy attention, activity, and being part of whatever their people are doing. Like most puppies their age, they are teething and love to chew. Rope toys and durable puppy-safe chews help soothe their gums and keep them appropriately entertained. They have not shown much interest in digging and are generally not especially vocal. Their adopters should be prepared to continue working on potty training, crate or pen training, leash skills, appropriate chewing, socialization, and all the other lessons that come with raising a young puppy. With consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement, these eager-to-please puppies should make wonderful students. The Perfect Order The ideal homes for the Starbucks puppies will provide plenty of affection, playtime, exercise, training, and opportunities to remain closely connected with their people. They would be delighted to join families with children who understand how to interact gently with a growing puppy. No matter your order, this Starbucks menu has something irresistible for every puppy lover.
