We are looking to add committed puppy/welping fosters to our growing nursery community! We have all kinds of needs including pregnant and nursing mamas, bottle babies, puppies 6-12 weeks, etc. Our local shelters and partners in Mexico are bursting at the seams with puppies and pregnant mom dogs. We are in crisis and cannot continue to say YES (which is our favorite thing to say) without more fosters. Please apply today (link in bio) or comment/message us with questions! Fostering saves lives and our community is a special one. Join us in our fight to save the most vulnerable of lives 💚 by @tap_nursery

Meet adoptable Lorelai 💚

“Hey pals! I am Lorelai and I am a 2 years old, spayed female Pug mix. I am a nice 24 lbs in weight. I was rescued from a shelter in Lancaster and I had my litter, fondly known as Gilmore Girls. My puppies are off to homes and it’s mama time to shine!

I am a super sweetheart! I love to cuddle and playing with my foster doggo siblings. I enjoy walks and hikes. I do well by myself alone too. I am just a lover of anything and everything abd everyone! I dont have experience with cats and kids but I think I’ll be good! I am fully bathroom and leash trained and dont even need a crate.

I can play, chill, cuddle and just be adorable. It will always be like a white Christmas in Stars Hollow with me in your lap. Now what are you waiting for? Adopt me!”

ADOPTED 🐾 Meet adoptable Selena 💚

“Hi there! I’m Selena, a gorgeous 4-year-old, 55-pound Lab Mix. I’m in great health, have not yet been spayed, and can’t wait to find my furever home! I came all the way from Tecate in Baja California, where I lived freely on a ranch and raised some sweet puppies.

I’m a gentle, laid-back girl who’s super low-maintenance and well-behaved. I’m not much of a barker, and I absolutely adore being around people. Some of my favorite things are chewing on bones, snuggling up, and going for relaxing walks. My ultimate favorite, though? Cozy cuddles and just hanging out with my humans! I also enjoy sitting calmly at outdoor cafes or restaurants, people-watching under the table while you sip your coffee.

I’m fully potty-trained and crate-trained, and I’ve never had any accidents in the house. I’m also great on a leash and love being out and about. I’m working on some mild separation anxiety, though, but only because I just love being close to my humans.

I’d thrive in a home where I’m either the solo star or with medium-to-larger, mellow dogs like me. I do have a prey drive, so homes with cats or small dogs wouldn’t be the best fit. Since I adore people, I’d likely be great with kiddos, too!”

Meet Selena’s adorable little crew!

These confident, playful, and super-friendly puppies love everyone they meet! They are Lab mix pups born on 11/4/24 and rescued at just two weeks old after being found living outside in Tecate. They’ve been growing, playing, and getting all the love in TAP’s care ever since! We expect them to grow into medium to large sized dogs. Now almost 3 months old, they’re ready to find their forever homes. Could that be with you?

In order of appearance:

The results are in…

➡️Keep Swiping to see what mix the Gilmore Girls litter is. It’s a fun one!

We are currently accepting applications for Mama Lorelei’s pups. They are currently 7 weeks old and ready to go into foster-to-adopt homes in about a week. Mama Lorelei is dealing with some skin issues but will be adoptable soon. Mama and pups were raised in an AMAZING foster home with several other dogs and have gotten so much great training and socialization (shout out to foster superstar @ricekristytreatz for giving these pups the best start). Pups are litter box trained and total love bugs. They will grow to be a perfect shmedium size 🐶
