My story

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

Meet Sprite! Sprite is a sweet little dog. He enjoys hanging out with our shelter staff, receiving treats, and going for walks! You can typically find this little guy soaking up the sun outside cuddle up to a staff me member or volunteer. This cutie also enjoys working on his skills. Sprite currently already knows how to sit! He is a very smart boy. To keep himself entertained, Sprite enjoys playing with small plushies. When it comes to other dogs Sprite can be a little dog selective, but isn't completely opposed to the idea of having a furry friend. So if you are looking for a fun and friendly little dog, consider putting in an adoption application for Sprite today!
