Adoption fee: $650 Meet the Crime Puppies — Felony, Misdemeanor, and Alibi — three 12-14 week old, ~13 lb offenders currently wanted for excessive cuteness, suspicious levels of snuggling, and grand theft of human hearts. Authorities confirm they are repeat offenders… and show no signs of reform.   Rap Sheet: Daily Activities The Crime Puppies begin their day promptly at 0700 hours, reporting to the kitchen for breakfast by 0730. Plates are always cleared of evidence — not a crumb left behind. These suspects are highly motivated by kibble and have demonstrated excellent cooperation during feeding operations.   They serve their overnight sentences in a puppy pen or crate, where they sleep soundly until morning, typically waking only once to file a brief potty report on their designated pads. When weather conditions permit, they are released into the yard for supervised outdoor recreation, including running, exploring, and general mischief.   After breakfast, they engage in several hours of high-intensity play (notably tug-of-rope — a known criminal pastime), followed by a mandatory group nap. Lunch is served around 1200 hours, followed by additional play, another nap, and dinner at approximately 1700 hours. Evening activities include more play, more napping, and the occasional stroller patrol, where they gather intelligence on neighborhood smells. By nightfall, they pile together and sleep like innocent angels… until the next day’s shenanigans begin.   Suspect Profiles   Felony and Misdemeanor are energetic puppies and are always on the go! They are either awake and ready for adventure or passed out from playing so hard. They love playing together and exploring the backyard, wrestling with toys, or engaging in a spirited game of tug with a rope toy or bone. They are not shy at all — even around a big hound dog! Both puppies are very athletic and clever. They're food motivated and eager to please, so training should be a breeze.   Felony Felony is the ringleader — bold, dramatic, and always ready to take center stage. She subscribes to the philosophy of play hard, crash hard, and executes both with impressive enthusiasm. Felony adores hanging with her sister and would happily recruit another playful canine accomplice in her future home.   She is adventurous, athletic, and endlessly entertaining. Her most notable offense? A mysterious distrust of tile floors, which she handles by flattening herself into a full belly crawl like she’s evading capture. It’s a maneuver that keeps her foster family laughing daily.   Misdemeanor Misdemeanor is Felony’s loyal partner-in-crime, but with a slightly calmer approach to her operations. She enjoys wrestling matches and backyard escapades but is also perfectly capable of conducting quiet surveillance — sitting back to observe people or patiently waiting in the pen while others sleep in.   She can entertain herself quietly in the mornings and will often sit and watch the world go by until the action starts. While she loves a good play session with her sister, she is also learning how to slow down and enjoy affection, and she absolutely melts for a good belly rub.   Alibi Alibi is the sensitive investigator of the group — a cuddler at heart with a curious spirit and a thoughtful approach to new situations. He likes to explore his surroundings, but he does so carefully at first, taking time to assess the scene before confidently moving forward once he decides everything is safe.   He has a way of understanding what he should or shouldn’t do when told, but like any young pup, his puppy energy sometimes leads him to test the boundaries just to see what he can get away with. When he encounters something new — a noise, a stumble, or an unfamiliar experience — he may pause to investigate, but he bounces back quickly and keeps going.   Alibi recently had a professional grooming session and behaved like a model citizen, handling the experience beautifully from start to finish. Because he forms strong bonds with his people, he would benefit from continued training to build confidence when left alone. With structure, patience, and reassurance, he is likely to blossom into a very secure and devoted companion.   Final Verdict The Crime Puppies are looking for active homes that are excited about training their new adventure buddy. They're a great option to join another dog in a home or could be your solo BFF.   Sentence: Lifetime companionship, daily laughter, and unconditional love.
