Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Spenser's adoption fee is $250.
Well, hello there! I’m Spenser. They tell me that I am about 10 years old, but age is really just a number you know! Everyone who meets me thinks I’m about 5 or 6 years old, and they’re very, very surprised when my foster mom tells them my age – I have the good health, energy level and behavior of a much younger fellow! I am a male Shih Tzu mix and I weigh about 14 pounds. I’m neutered, up to date on vaccines and I recently had a dental, so my teeth are nice and clean.
I really am a social butterfly – I love attention and insist on greeting everyone we meet when my foster mom takes me on walks. I am good on leash and love my walks, though I do like to stop and sniff along the way. I’m bubbly and bouncy and love to play and I’ll gladly play fetch or tug of war with you for as long you’re willing to, and then I’ll be just as happy to curl up beside you for a nice snooze. I’m fine with other dogs, but cats are another matter – I’m learning to tolerate the cats in my foster home, but would really rather not share my home with them, thank you very much! I’m house trained and will only bark when someone comes to the door, so I’d be fine in an apartment situation.
My foster mom says that I’m a real character and am great company, and that I would be a wonderful companion for an active senior, or someone who is home most of the time. If you think we’d be a good match, please get in touch with Tiny Paws – it could be the start of a great relationship!
