My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Hey everyone, my name is Spruce! Are you looking for a gentle, cuddle bug that follows you around? Then I’m your guy! I am crate trained, although I sometimes do get a little sad when you shut the door and walk away, but that’s because I love my people and want to hang out with them. After a few minutes of expressing my sadness, I settle in and take a nap. Speaking of my crate, I like to keep it clean day and night and will wait about 8 hours at night before I need to potty. I’m working on helping keep the house clean too and only had one accident when my foster mom didn’t realize I needed to pee. She says I’m a smart guy and have already made a lot of progress towards learning basic commands like sit and down. I’m still not sure about walking on a leash but that’s only because I haven’t gone on many walks yet. Like my sister, Blossom, I get along extremely well with male and female dogs and kids. In general, I avoid cats as they are strange creatures, if you ask me. If you want a lovable companion that loves to give kisses, please consider me!
 

Spruce is a great pup!   She gets along well with other dogs and kids.  She is one of a littler of 9 puppies found under a shed.  They are  adventurous and curious about their surroundings.  The pups listen well and are progressing well with crate training. They are incredibly well behaved for puppies their age.  They play well and snuggle well.  If you need a buddy complete an application at  https://www.saveastray.org/forms/form?formid=3635

More about this rescue

Save a Stray strives to enrich the lives of pets in Mobile County through spay/neuter programs, providing vet care to shelter pets, and including shelter pets a risk youth groups.

Spay/neutering pets help to decrease the number of pets entering our shelter. By providing vet care to shelter pets healthier pets can be adopted by individuals or pulled by rescue groups. This program will also help decrease vetting expenses of rescue groups. Training programs with shelter pets and at risk youth increase the self esteem of the youth and make the pet more adoptable. A pet that knows a few basic commands is more likely to be adopted, become a family member, and remain in the home.
