JUNE 2016: Sparky is an energetic, playful, affectionate but independent 6-yr-old boy weighing 12#. Good leash & harness walking companion. He can be overly inquisitive around infants, doesn't care for disrespectful young children and would be best in a household with older children. He is OK sharing space with other dogs, but would love being the only one. he has a Top Dog personality--prefers to occupy the top of the couch or chair, etc. Greatly appreciates at-will access to a secure back yard via a dog door.
PLEASE READ HOW TO ADOPT THIS DOG: ADOPTION and FOSTER forms can be printed from our website: wrenyorkierescue.org PLEASE SUBMIT APPLICATION FORM before emailing. Soon after we receive your completed paperwork, we will chat and help you determine which dog[s] you and your family members want to interview at your home. We will schedule a convenient visit time [about an hour, sometimes longer] so the potential new family member[s] and you can relax and get to know each other. If all goes well, you can expect to begin your 'honeymoon' period. We will consider you a FOSTER during this period. After a few weeks, you will know if your routine and expectations match the dog's needs and requirements. If so, we will draw up an adoption contract for your new family member.
