Here's what the humans have to say about me:
To help us make a great fit for you, and any of our dogs as well, please include information about yourself(Home, family, yard/fence, work hours, other pets...) and/or use our application at sparrowdogs.com.
Look out world, Miss Lainey is ready to begin the next(and BEST) chapter of her life!! This precious girl was given up by her previous family to a large shelter. It did not take long for Lainey to become overwhelmed with all the noise and excitement and her behavior soon deteriorated. It is actually very common for dogs to become fearful and defensive in those setting, I think I would as well.
But-good news-Lainey recovered very nicely in her foster home. She was a little guarded the first few hours, but after that, the gloves were off and she was in full play mode. She LOVES to run and play with the other dogs and is quite athletic.
Lainey also is a pro at snuggling, one of her favorite past times. If there is a lap available, well, Lainey is your girl. She is the silliest little thing, she actually smiles. When you are talking to her she will wiggle, sit down and give the goofiest toothy grin, cutest thing ever!! Lainey has been wonderful with the people she has met in her foster home, but we think she will do better in a home with older kids, we have not had her around little ones.
We are totally guessing at her breed. We do believe she is a purebred Rat Terrier, but certainly cannot guarantee that. We do know she is adorable, super smart, well mannered and housebroken, sweet, silly and pretty darn awesome. She is looking for a loving and fairly active home where she will not be left alone for long hours. Another dog in the home that is equally as playful would be great, a fenced yard is a huge plus. We adore this spunky little girl and she will go home with plenty of supplies to help her settle into her new home.
Her adoption fee is $325. Lainey is 1 year old and about 12 pounds. Please email Kristine at joysparrows@gmail.com.
