Story
WEIGHT: 55lbs Meet Sprinkles— She has had a tough go of it lately. Sprinkles came to us from a partner shelter where she was dropped off at their front gate in a wire crate. It`s terrible, we know. But honestly, to meet her, you wouldn`t know it. She is so outgoing, spunky, and playful. She is friendly with all people and has a really beautiful and unique look. She`s had mixed reviews of other dogs, so a home with other animals might work providing it was a good match. She`s high energy and would make a great adventure buddy for an active couple or young family. It doesn`t look like she has much experience doing normal dog things, so potential adopters should be prepared to take on some basic positive reinforcement training. Sprinkles recently spent some time in a foster home. Here is what they had to say about her:`Sprinkles is the most loving, cuddly and up for anything dog you can meet. She loves people and walks! She is well behaved, but consider puppy age, she can be a bit mischievous (shoe stealing and counter inspecting especially). She is super smart and eager to learn/please (I taught her enchanté - hand down and she gives you a paw like a high five but then she gives your hand a kiss), very treat/food motivated. A little bit of separation anxiety but I think if she were in a place long enough, she`d be okay, when she knows she`s home. Does well on lead, pulls when she sees something she wants or something that scares her. She`s a little timid about random things, the donkey statue in my backyard freaked her out and a kayak in the Harbor scared her, but she is easily comforted and not aggressive at all. We spent a lot of time outside so I can`t say 100% that she`s potty trained but that would be a very easy training. She`s extremely cuddly and wants to be with you. You can tell she`s been through a lot, but she doesn`t show it at all. She`s still got that mischievous puppy nature about her, and she would definitely make a great adventure companion for someone.`If you’d like to meet her, feel free to call our adoptions desk or stop by during Browsing Hours: Wed-Sun 11-5.
