My story

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

Name: GENEVA

SAPA-A-72425

What am I? A SUSPECTED MIX OF LABRADOR AND TERRIER MAYBE? (this is only based off of the foster’s experience, her exact breed is unknown).

How Big Will I Get? It’s not known, however Geneva doesn’t show the signs of becoming a huge dog. Maybe she will grow up to border medium/large.

How much do I currently weigh? 5.87 lbs at approx. 8 weeks of age.

Favorite toys: I love toys, toys that crinkle, toys that roll, toys that I can play tug of war with.

House trained: I’m age-appropriately litter box trained.

Dog-friendly: Yes.

Cat-friendly: Yes.

Child-friendly: Yes.

Leash Trained – Not yet, not until the puppy can be outside.

Crate trained: No, Geneva and her siblings sleep in a pen. Should crating her be desired by her potential hooman’s, that is something they would have to commit to train her to do with all the bells and whistles that come with crate training!

What does Geneva’s ideal living situation look like? This always begins with an individual and/or family that understands that adopting a puppy is a lifetime commitment. We aren’t looking for a perfection, we are looking for an adopter that don’t give up and are ok with making mistakes. A breed such as the Labrador mix is intelligent and requires a role and job within a family. So, that would need to be taken into consideration when adopting her. The next quality of an ideal minded adopter is someone who understands great relationships are developed, over time with structure, consistency, limits, boundaries and authority. The antithesis of this is an individual who believes it is simply up to “luck”. Geneva is a puppy, with puppy energy and her fur-ever home must have a plan to contain her when they or Geneva require a break. While she is in foster care, she is doted on and loved. There are areas of his development that her fur-ever home will have to develop themselves, such as walking on a leash. If they don’t know how to train an animal, they need to be willing to seek one-on-one help from a paid professional or look into dog training websites and follow the complimentary advice given there. Again, a puppy and/or dog is a wonderful addition to any family and it’s a decision we commit to when the animal is cute and when the animal is not-so-cute.

Health – Geneva is fully vetted to date on vaccines and prevents. Her spay is scheduled on 11 December 2024 and she is free to go home as soon as that evening.

More about this rescue

Our mission is to provide the programs and services needed to eliminate the killing of at-risk animals due to lack of space, adopter or foster.

San Antonio Pets Alive! is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Due to alarming euthanasia rates, San Antonio Pets Alive! (SAPA!) was founded in 2012. SAPA! is unique—it is the only high paced, high-volume rescue in San Antonio, saving 6,000 at-risk cats and dogs annually.

Since its inception, SAPA! has saved more than 47,000 dogs and cats. SAPA! provides safety nets for the dogs and cats that fall through the cracks of all other lifesaving options and end up on the euthanasia lists, often with just hours to be saved. SAPA! promotes the availability of these dogs and cats to other rescues, adopters and fosters.
