Adoption fee: $650 Meet the Grocery Store Puppies! Most people bring home groceries in a Grocery Outlet bag. These puppies somehow arrived at a shelter in one. Yes, really. The Grocery Store Puppies got their adorable market-themed names after being dropped off at a shelter inside a Grocery Outlet bag. Thankfully, their story gets much better from there. DPS scooped them up, and now these five lucky puppies are safe, thriving, and searching for forever homes of their own. At 9-10 weeks old, these Dachshund mixes (maybe some Beagle in there? Pug?) are as cute as they come. Four of the puppies sport gorgeous light brindle coats that make them look like tiny designer dogs. Then there's Mollie Stone, who appears to have missed the family memo entirely and instead looks like a teeny-tiny pocket Chihuahua (and as the smallest of the group, she's also the spunkiest!). Their parents' identities may remain one of life's great mysteries, but one thing is certain: every single one of them is ridiculously adorable. Aisle One: Food Lovers The Grocery Puppies start their mornings between 8:00 and 9:00 AM ready to tackle the important business of being puppies. The moment they wake up, the wrestling matches begin. Followed by zoomies. Followed by toy theft. Followed by more wrestling. Breakfast is served around 9:00 AM, lunch between 1:00 and 2:00 PM, and dinner around 7:00 to 8:00 PM. Every puppy comes running the instant food appears because this litter firmly believes that every meal could be the greatest meal of all time. Between meals, they squeeze in plenty of naps, usually piled together in an adorable puppy heap before waking up refreshed and ready for their next adventure. Mollie Stone: The Chaos Coordinator If there's trouble to be found, Mollie Stone has probably already discovered it. This spirited pint sized little girl is fearless, adventurous, and always looking for something exciting to do. She's often the first puppy to grab a toy, initiate a wrestling match, or investigate an area that may or may not have been intended for puppy exploration. Mollie has a huge personality packed into a tiny body. She's confident, hilarious, endlessly entertaining, and guaranteed to keep her future family laughing. Life with Mollie Stone will never be boring. Piggly Wiggly: The Sweetheart Special Piggly Wiggly is the gentle soul of the family. She's the most thoughtful and cautious of the bunch, preferring to watch new situations unfold before deciding to join in. Once she's comfortable, however, her affectionate side shines brightly. This sweet little girl loves cuddling with her people and siblings and has the kind of soft, loving personality that makes you want to scoop her up and carry her everywhere. Piggly Wiggly is the perfect puppy for someone who wants to build a close bond with a tender-hearted companion. Publix: The Explorer Publix is confident, curious, and adventurous. He's usually the first puppy to investigate a new toy, explore a new room, or figure out what's happening on the other side of a gate. He approaches life with enthusiasm and confidence and seems convinced that every day should contain at least one exciting discovery. His playful, outgoing personality makes him the kind of puppy who's always ready for the next adventure. 99 Ranch: Professional Cuddle Consultant 99 Ranch has two great loves in life: food and affection. This sweet boy absolutely melts when someone rubs his belly or showers him with attention. While he enjoys wrestling and playing with his siblings, his true talent is convincing humans to stop what they're doing and snuggle him. He's affectionate, loving, and impossible not to adore. Add in his enthusiasm for mealtime and you've got a puppy who has all the ingredients for becoming someone's very best friend. Nob Hill: The Total Package Nob Hill somehow manages to combine playful puppy antics with expert-level snuggling. He's always happy to join a game of chase, wrestle with his siblings, or carry toys around proudly. But the moment someone sits down, he's equally happy to abandon his important puppy business in favor of belly rubs and cuddles. His goofy, affectionate personality makes him instantly lovable. As long as he has people, toys, and snacks nearby, Nob Hill considers life pretty much perfect. Freshly Stocked and Ready for Adoption Like all puppies, the Grocery Store Puppies are still learning about the world. They are playful, social, food-motivated, affectionate, and wonderfully adaptable. They love people, adore toys, and spend their days alternating between full-speed puppy chaos and heart-melting cuddle sessions. While they currently enjoy the company of their siblings, each puppy is looking for their own forever family where they can continue growing into a confident, well-adjusted adult dog. Whether you're looking for an adventurous explorer, a professional cuddler, a fearless comedian, or a gentle sweetheart, there's a Grocery Store Puppy ready to fill your cart. And unlike most impulse purchases at the checkout line, this is one decision you'll never regret.
