Story
Meet Sprinkles
Sprinkles is a playful and loving bundle of energy who is ready to find her forever family! This spunky girl has a zest for life and a personality that will brighten any home. While Sprinkles has plenty of love to give, she will thrive in a home that understands her needs and is ready to commit to her ongoing training.
Sprinkles is also incredibly sweet and affectionate, with a special talent for cuddling. She loves to curl up on the couch with her foster family during TV time, often resting her head on a lap. She enjoys being around people and has been wonderful with her foster’s kids, even when they’re loud and goofy.
Quick Facts About Sprinkles:
• Potty Training: Sprinkles is still working on her potty training. She knows to go outside but will need consistency, patience, and reminders as she continues to learn.
• Good with Other Pets: Sprinkles has had mixed experiences with cats. While she lived peacefully with a cat in her Texas foster home, she has not been getting along with her current foster’s cat. Careful introductions and compatibility will be key. She gets along well with certain dogs and loves to play but may not match with every canine personality.
• Kid-Friendly: Sprinkles was exposed daily to kids aged 9–12 in her Texas foster home and did well with them. She has also done well with her current foster’s children, even when they’re being loud and silly. While she has not shown aggression toward people, she will do best in a home with older children who can understand and respect her boundaries.
• Leash Skills: Sprinkles is working on her leash manners. She tends to lunge at cars, bikes, and sometimes people, so she will benefit from ongoing leash training with a committed owner or professional trainer.
• Crate Trained: She does well in her crate and will benefit from being crated when left alone until she matures.
• Energy Level: Sprinkles has high energy and will need plenty of physical and mental stimulation to keep her happy and balanced.
Personality and Charm:
Sprinkles greets the world with boundless excitement! She’s affectionate and occasionally bouncy when meeting new people, but that just adds to her charm and eagerness to make friends. Her playful nature ensures she brings joy and liveliness to any home. She also has a softer side, loving nothing more than to cuddle and spend quality time with her people.
Ideal Home:
Sprinkles needs a home with experience handling high-energy dogs and a commitment to ongoing training. She would do best with active adopters who have a large, secure yard for her to run and play. Apartment living is not ideal for her unless her family is highly dedicated to her exercise and training needs. A home without cats or with slow, careful introductions would be ideal, and adopters should be comfortable continuing her work with other dogs to ensure compatibility.

** PLEASE READ: If a dog/puppy is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. In some cases this dog may be pending an adoption already, and their profile has not been updated yet. Please note, SPR does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated otherwise. All breeds listed are educated best estimates by transferring shelter staff, our volunteers or our vets. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them the All American MUTT. Our dogs are rescued from various situations (kill-shelters, owner surrenders, strays, etc). It is most likely that both their parents were strays and mixes of some sort.
If you are interested in this dog, you MUST submit an application. Sandy Paws Rescue does not a have a public shelter in Mass, so there is no building you can visit without an appointment. Our dogs live in private foster homes or boarding kennels down south until adopted, or in some cases in our very small private kennel facility on Martha's Vineyard and foster care homes through out MV, Cape Cod and other parts of MA. A large majority of our dogs are adopted/spoken for prior to transport and release from state mandated isolation. To learn more about our rescue, adoption fees, and procedures, review the list of FAQ’s on our website at WWW.SANDYPAWSRESCUE.COM.
**The FIRST step in adopting an animal from our rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.
