Tiny, Playful, and Ready to Grow With You Bean may be small, but his personality is already larger than life. Approximately 5 weeks old, Bean is a Rat Terrier mix who embodies everything people adore about puppies — curiosity, playfulness, and that joyful, bouncy energy that makes every day feel a little brighter. He’s still very young and just beginning to explore the world, but it’s already clear that he’s confident, affectionate, and full of fun. Bean loves to play, wiggle, and investigate everything around him. He’s social, interactive, and happiest when he’s engaged with people or romping around like the typical puppy he is. After playtime, he’s perfectly content to settle in and soak up affection — the best of both worlds. Because of his age, Bean will need a committed adopter who understands what raising a puppy truly involves. He’s still learning the basics and will require patience, consistency, training, and lots of love as he grows. In return, you’ll get to shape him into an incredible companion and watch him blossom every step of the way. Bean will be ready for his forever home soon, and we are accepting applications now for adopters who are prepared for the joys (and responsibilities!) of puppyhood. If you’re looking for a happy, playful pup to grow alongside your family — Bean is ready to steal your heart. +++++++ ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://petsave.formstack.com/forms/petsave_adoption_application +++++++ Bean is currently being fostered in Texas and will be transported to his forever home by our rescue. We have transports departing each week. +++++++ The Truth About Rescue: Every rescue pup is a work in progress — and that’s the beauty of it. None of them come wrapped in a bow, ready-made or mistake-free. They come with stories, quirks, and hearts that have seen a lot but still choose to trust again. Adoption isn’t about perfection; it’s about presence. Showing up for them, every day, until they know they’re finally home. That’s when you’ll see them bloom — playful, confident, and loved. And somewhere along the way, you’ll realize they were never the only one being rescued. +++++++ Once we have received your application, we will review it and reach out to set up an interview with one of our volunteers. If you have additional questions, please email us at SaintMuttsInquiries@gmail.com . Note: As with all of our rescues, we recommend homes with children 10 years and over to ensure the best fit for both the pets and families involved.
