When we saw a scared, timid pup in the corner of the kennel at Devore on her last day, we knew we had to save her. For the first few days in her foster home, she was shutdown and didn't make a single sound, nor a bark, nor a woof, nor a whimper, she would stay out in the yard and try to hide as much as possible - she seemed like a baby bird so she was named Sparrow.
In the 30 days that her foster mom has been working with her, Sparrow has transformed into a wonderful loving pup gaining confidence and who loves to play with dogs, enjoys being with people, play fetch and dog parks. In her foster home, she has quickly learned the household routine with the help of her foster dog siblings, who she learned to joyfully play with as part of the pack. Sparrow walks easy on leash, has been a terrific hiking buddy, and true to her spaniel breed, her favorite place is at Fiesta Island running as fast as she can to chase the birds. At the dog park, she loves to play fetch, chase and socialize with the other dogs.
Sparrow is a beautiful smart little pup who will quickly settle into a loving home, she is learning basic commands and is completely house trained. At 24 pounds, and almost a year old Sparrow is fully grown and the perfect medium size pup; she rarely barks, does not chew or destroy things, is non aggressive and loves to snuggle up with her humans. She is still a little shy with new people but warms up with time and she has done well around children with her calm energy level, she will thrive on daily activities such as dog park, long walk, hike or Fiesta Island. She does great with other dogs big or small but might do best in a home without a cat.
Sparrow is absolutely beautiful, has a joyful happy spirit, and is a delightful pup in every way - if you are interested in meeting her, please visit www.TheRescuedDog.org and complete an application to set up a playdate.
