Our Pups
The pups at Potcake Puppy Palace are young and vulnerable, often found in dire situations at an extremely young age. They wouldn’t survive in a typical shelter environment such as a humane society, so our amazing Claire Cash (Mama Claire), founder and puppy caregiver, and our dedicated volunteers in the Bahamas will often bottle feed and nurse our puppies back to health until they are healthy and old enough to be adopted. We make sure that each litter has frequent visits to the Bahamas Humane Society to visit the vet for routine checks and vaccines.
Our pups are raised with the litter in which they are found and have their own isolated area at the shelter to ensure a safe and healthy environment. They receive hands-on medical care at the shelter as well as lots of cuddles and love from many local volunteers. This is unique to other shelter or stray situations because these pups are given the opportunity to be raised with socialization and love which innately gives them a sweet and loving nature towards humans.
As soon as a litter is healthy and old enough, and we have the availability to transport them, we bring them to Canada and match them with fosters while they wait to find their forever home.
Meet some of our pups who are currently living with their foster families & are ready to be adopted.
Roscoe (M) / 11 months / Neutered
-
Neutered: Y // Dogs: Y
-
Roscoe is an 11-month-old pup with a huge heart and an even bigger love for people. Once he’s settled, he’s a confident, well-adjusted boy who feels comfortable in his environment and truly thrives around humans. If you make eye contact with him, congratulations — you’re now his favourite person!
He is incredibly affectionate and loves being close to his people, whether that’s cuddling on the couch, soaking up attention, or simply hanging out nearby. Roscoe is also very playful and goofy — he lives for interactive play with his humans (flirt pole, tug, personal play), loves his toys (especially chew toys ), and has a blast playing with other dogs .
He’s doing great with his training and daily routines:
Crate trained and very comfortable — sleeps quietly through the night and settles well during the day
Walks well on leash and enjoys exploring outside
Very food motivated and eager to learn
Roscoe would be a wonderful match for a family or individual looking for a fun, affectionate, people-oriented companion who’s ready to keep growing and learning alongside them.

Boski (M) / 3.5 months
-
Neutered: N // Dogs: Y // Kids: Y
-
Equal parts cuddle bug, goofy puppy, and growing adventurer — this sweet little guy is really coming into his own!
Boski is doing great on walks and loves romping along the sidewalk. He’s starting to understand the whole “pee outside” concept too and is making awesome progress every day.
At home, he’s a total snuggle pro. Whether it’s hanging out quietly by your feet while you work or sneaking into a cozy chair beside you, Boski just wants to be close to his people.
Here’s what Boski’s been working on lately:
✅ doing well on walks and building outdoor confidence
✅ learning potty skills and understanding outside is the place to go
✅ picking up basic training like "sit" quickly (especially with food motivation!)
Boski has done well around cats too — curious but respectful, and not bothered by them at all.🐱
Overall, Boski is a gentle, sweet boy with a fun-loving spirit and a real desire to please. He’s found a lovely balance between playtime and chill time, and he absolutely thrives on love and connection.
Interested in adopting one of these pups?
If you can’t adopt, foster.
Without our trusted fosters, we have nowhere for our pups to go until they can be matched with their adopter, often forcing us to leave them behind even if they have the opportunity to leave The Bahamas.
