Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Spur is a sweet, playful boy who has gone through professional training and is ready to show his skills off to the rest of the world with his forever family! Spur in his "big boy" body but is still a playful puppy at heart. Spur got to fly on a plane with his mom Ruby when he was 6 months old to go from Texas to Minnesota where he will have a much better chance in life. It was the first time spur had ever been out of a shelter and he had a lot to learn about life on the outside. He has made so much progress!
He went to professional board and train at liberty K9 where he graduated his obedience class. He is a favorite of his trainers! He is super food motivated and eager to please and learn.
Although he has come so far he can still have his skittish tendencies in certain circumstances, there is still so much experience. Spur hasn't been around many children and is little afraid of them, so he would be best in a home with older calmer children or no kids at all. He has been venturing out into the world a lot and experiencing parks and trails where he has done an amazing job exploring and learning about everything around him. Spur has a great nose and loves to sniff everything.
Spur is a happy playful puppy and loves to play with people or dogs. Although he is still learning boundaries and may need some guidance while he continues to work through what is and is not appropriate. Luckily for any adopter Spur comes with the tools and training plan to work through his teenage phase (thanks Liberty!). He knows Sit, down, place, leave it and he walks well on a leash. Spur loves his people and enjoys following them around the house throughout the day and getting in some cuddles on the couch! Do you have a spot on your couch?

More about this rescue
Our Vision is to be a voice for those who are voiceless. We hear them with our hearts and give them a voice. Looking into the eyes of a rescued animal will speak volumes; watching those eyes light up will have an everlasting impact on you and the rescued animals.
We aren’t a typical rescue as we don’t take in dogs and put them in kennels until they’re adopted. All dogs we rescue are placed in loving foster homes that teach them to be the best dog they can be.
Our journey doesn’t end with adoption, either. We are here for you to support you in integrating your new member into your home, cheer new triumphs, and help with struggles.
