Meet Epic!

Red Doberman | Female | 4 weeks old

Chaos Level: Pending Upgrade

WARNING: Contains excessive cuteness and potential for future world domination.

Hi, I’m Epic – a 4-week-old, wiggly red Doberman noodle with legs that are technically working (depending on which direction I fall today). I just discovered walking, eating this delightful mush humans call “gruel,” and expressing my opinions in squeaks and tiny barks that sound like a malfunctioning kazoo.

Right now, I’m small. Adorably small. But I have big plans. And I’m looking for a human (or entire village) who’s ready to raise a future majestic queen.

Why adopt a Doberman puppy like me?

Oh, I don’t know… do you enjoy:

• Potty training? Great! I will absolutely teach YOU how to sprint across the house in your pajamas at 3am. (You're welcome.)

• Chewing? I have 28 razor-sharp baby teeth and a deep desire to taste-test everything in your house – furniture, socks, feelings.

• Obedience training? Ever wanted to bribe someone with snacks for eye contact? Welcome to the wonderful world of Doberman psychology.

In return, I offer:

• Daily doses of zoomies so intense they could generate wind power.

• Ears that may or may not stand up like satellite dishes (we’ll see – genetics are mysterious).

• Snuggles so pure, your heart will explode into glitter.

• Lifelong loyalty, and a personal security guard who’s currently 6 lbs but thinks she’s a T. rex.

Adopting me means:
✔ You love a challenge.
✔ You own shoes you’re willing to sacrifice.
✔ You believe napping together counts as a team-building activity.

I’ll be ready for my forever home soon – once I’ve mastered this whole “walking like a land animal” thing and start learning my ABCs (Always Bite Chew-toys).

So if you’re ready to laugh, cry, lose a few socks, and fall madly in love with the most dramatic, spicy, snuggly little Doberman tornado in training – Epic is your girl.
