My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Looking for a well-mannered, affectionate large dog to share life`s adventures?  Look no further! Sparkle is a doll!  She loves exploring new places, walks easily on a leash, and rides quietly in the car.  She recently returned to the shelter after being in a foster home since mid-September where she was well-mannered and relaxed and liked being near her `person` while working or watching a movie.  She wiggles with joy when she sees her person, is affectionate and enjoys petting and belly rubs.  When Sparkle hits the yard, she runs enthusiastic zoomies in wide circle.  Sparkle has been friendly with all the like-minded dogs on neighborhood walks and in play groups at the shelter, so we believe she might like a canine friend in her new home.  There were cats in her foster home which she saw but choose to ignore. Sparkle is initially shy around new people, so there is an adjustment period to build trust with her.  Once she gets to know and trust you, she becomes your new best friend!  

If you are looking for an attentive, quiet, well-mannered large dog to share life`s adventures, please consider Sparkle.  For more information or to arrange a meeting, please come to the shelter or you may contact her foster at carole_gates@hotmail.com

Sparkle has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in her new home.  She has blossomed into a silly, playful pup and has played with a number of dogs from a miniature poodle to large husky.  Looking for a buddy for your dog?  Bring him/her to the shelter for a meet and greet and see if we`re a match!  Check out her playgroup video here:
