Thankfully, DPS stepped in and gave them the chance they deserved. And while Stovepipe may have arrived scared of the world, he's quickly discovering that being a puppy is actually pretty wonderful. A Day in the Life of Stovepipe Stovepipe starts his mornings around 7:00 AM with a trip outside for a potty break. After that, he's ready to greet the day with enthusiasm, curiosity, and a healthy appreciation for breakfast. Meals are still a bit of a work in progress. Stovepipe isn't a huge foodie yet, but he's slowly discovering the finer things in life. So far, watermelon and green beans have earned glowing reviews. The rest of the day consists of a delightful rotation of naps, toys, puppy adventures, backyard time, and carefully supervising his foster family.

Dinner is around 5:00 PM, followed by an evening of snuggles and playtime before a final potty break and bedtime around 10:00 PM. And where does he sleep?
