My story

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

ABOUT ME: Looking for a sweet treat for your home? I'm S'mores the sweetest girl around! I can be shy at first but give me a week or two and we will be cozied up like two marshmallows on a graham cracker!

FOSTER TYPE: Healing and Comfort

FOSTER REASON: I am being treated for heartworms, so I will need a calm home to relax in due to being under exercise restriction while undergoing treatment. This means I will need to be a couch potato and go for leash walks only! My foster parent should be comfortable bringing me to the shelter periodically for scheduled vet appointments.

DREAM HOME: I am still learning leash walking so I would do best in a home with a securely fenced yard where I can practice my skills.

SPECIAL NOTE: While I am not available for adoption yet, I am available for foster-to-adopt!

APPOINTMENT TYPE: Fill out an application or email FOSTERMED@SPCA.ORG to meet me!
