Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Spartacus is a fast and furious Chihuahua. He had a severely broken hind leg that was not repairable. After his amputation, he had healed nicely and you would never know that his is missing a leg. This boy runs like the wind and get dig a hole in 30 seconds flat. He is expected to be on the smaller size as an adult dog. His mom, Lulu is about 13 pounds. We fondly call him Sparky for short. He is working on his potty training skills as we speak. Sparky takes a moment to warm up to people he isn't familiar with but gets along with all dogs and humans.
Spartacus' adoption fee is $450 and includes neuter, microchip, and current vaccinations.

More about this rescue
SPOT was created to fill the need to save animals who “fall through the cracks” in our sheltering system. Local shelters are overwhelmed—they receive so many strays and owner turn-ins that they run out of space and have to kill thousands of animals each year. The majority of these animals are healthy and simply need to be placed into a home. Others are medical cases which require some work, but do not have life-threatening diseases or injuries. And a few have some moderate behavior issues; we work with specialists to correct these behaviors before finding them their forever home. The bottom line is SPOT can save these lives.
