My story

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


WE CANNOT ANSWER EMAILS ASKING ABOUT A DOG'S AVAILABILITY. IF IT IS LISTED WITHOUT THE WORD "PENDING" IT MEANS IT IS AVAILABLE.

There's always gotta be one Drama Queen in the bunch and when parts were given out, Spike raised his paw real high for that one!! With a "tough guy" name like Spike, you'd expect that he'd roll up his sleeves and ride Harley's but this boy is more like the Cowardly Lion -- all roar until you say "Boo"!! For example, at the vet's office, he was calm and confident in his foster mom's arms until the vet went to take him . . . and then he screamed like she was killing him!! So his foster mom set him on the ground and he was fine; the little Primadonna wanted the exam on his terms. Spike is very loving with the other puppies and dogs at his foster home, and he's a really great snuggler with the school aged children. He gets a little nervous in new settings but he responds to, well . . . babying!! Spike is about 3 months old and he's a healthy boy. He was one of 9 pups born to a Lab/Rhodesian Ridgeback mom and a Lab/Basset dad and he was the only one lucky enough to inherit his mom's Ridge, making his hair look spiked down his neck, thus his name Spike. If you've always appreciated a flair for the dramatic please visit www.pinkshelter.com for more information about the adoption process or click here for our online application. Full vetting, microchip AND neuter included in his $400 adoption fee. Spike is in Arkansas and transport fee is additional $140.
