Some puppies know exactly how to get what they want... and Rabbit has apparently already mastered the art of puppy dog eyes.
Seriously, one look into those big, soulful brown eyes and you'll find yourself wondering if he's had the hardest day imaginable. The truth is, he's perfectly happy. He just naturally wears the sweetest, most tender expression we've ever seen. This chunky little boy is still just a baby discovering the world one tiny paw step at a time, and his gentle nature is enough to melt just about anyone's heart.

Rabbit is approximately 1 month old, currently weighs around 3 lbs, and we believe he may be a Jack Russell Terrier mix or maybe even a Chihuahua mix. He has 4 siblings and if you look at his siblings, you can see they are all unique with their own special characteristics. Perfect timing to enter the reference, ""life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get."" You can also see a picture of mom as well and she's only about 18lbs! So we do know, this litter has some small genetics mixed in there somewhere. As with any rescue animal, breed is always a bit of a mystery, but one thing we know for sure is that Rabbit is 100% adorable.
Like any young puppy, Rabbit's personality is still growing alongside him, but we're already getting a wonderful glimpse of the sweet little soul he's becoming. Out of his siblings, he seems to be a little more thoughtful, often choosing to quietly observe what's happening before deciding he's ready to join the fun. It isn't that he doesn't enjoy playing, because he absolutely does. He just likes to take everything in first, and there's something incredibly endearing about watching him build his confidence one little adventure at a time.
One of our favorite things about Rabbit is how quietly affectionate he is. He isn't the type to demand attention or make a grand entrance. Instead, he'll gently wander over without you even realizing he was there, lean into you for a little love, or quietly ask to be picked up for cuddles. Considering he's still such a tiny baby, it's impossible not to scoop him up the moment he asks. And honestly... we'd be surprised if anyone could resist those eyes anyway.
Of course, he's still a puppy, which means he has plenty of playful moments too. He enjoys wrestling with his siblings, investigating toys, and discovering that just about anything can become entertainment with enough puppy imagination. Right now his days are wonderfully simple: play for a little while, ask for a cuddle, take a nap, and then wake up ready to do it all again.
Because Rabbit is still so young, every day brings new experiences that help shape the dog he'll become. One of the greatest joys of adopting a puppy this young is getting to watch those little pieces of personality continue to unfold. We have a feeling his gentle heart, thoughtful nature, and quiet confidence are only going to become even more special as he grows.
Rabbit is still very young and will need a family that's ready to commit to all the time, patience, training, and socialization that come with raising a puppy. Establishing routines, providing structure, setting healthy boundaries, and introducing him to the world through positive experiences will all help him grow into a confident, well-rounded adult dog. We require our adopters to begin crate training as soon as their new puppy comes home, as it plays an important role in potty training, learning good habits, managing puppy energy, and helping puppies feel safe and secure.
If you've been searching for a puppy with the sweetest heart, the gentlest personality, and a pair of puppy dog eyes that deserve their own fan club, Rabbit is ready to become your newest best friend. Just don't say we didn't warn you... those eyes are nearly impossible to say no to.

We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards.
