My personality

My story

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

SPUNKY is such a sweetheart! He is a Chihuahua mix (with a micro pig, perhaps? ) approx 8 yrs old and 13 lb who is unique and amazing. Spunky loves all people. He does not meet a stranger! He is good with small dogs and cats. He is also good with calm bigger dogs. He is very housebroken and does not mark in the house.

Spunky is happy to sleep in the bed with people or on his bed on the floor. He snores a little during his total bliss being cozied up next to a person. He loves his blanket and will cover himself up.... and carry it with him if he is in a rush for dinner or to greet his people at the door He is unable to jump up onto furniture, but does fine with doggie stairs or being given a boost. He is a little shadow around the house and follows his people wherever they go. Once someone sits down, he requests to be picked up to lay beside them. He will happily stay there as long as he’s allowed to. He crates quietly with his blanket, if needed, and he rides well in the car.

Spunky is diabetic and requires insulin once a day and two small meals, but it is well managed and causes him no issues. He does just fine being given his medication and seems unphased by his condition.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

An application is required to meet foster dogs outside of adoption events.

2.

Interview

Typically there is a phone interview and a vet reference check.

3.

Meet the Pet

We have an in person meet and greet with the pet to ensure it is a good fit for both the dog and the family

4.

Approve Application

Approve the application, pay the fee and take the dog home can occur at the meet and greet if foster and family feel it is a match

Additional adoption info

We look to match the dogs personality, energy, and size to the potential adoptive family lifestyle and dynamics. A family looking for a calm snuggle buddy is not a good match for a working dog that needs to be walked several miles a day to be content and successful in the home.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

APAC has bi-monthly in person adoption events at the Temple, Texas Petsmart, typically on the first and third Saturday of the month. There is no need to wait for an adoption event, with an approved application we will schedule private meet and greets at a time convenient for the foster home and the potential adopter.

More about this rescue

The Association for a Pet Adoption Center (APAC) is a 501(c)3 not-for profit foster home based rescue seeking to alleviate over crowding in our local shelters and help match families with really great dogs. Adoption fees include vaccines, spay/neuter, microchip and heartgard to get started in the new family. We rescue to make a difference in our community, in the lives of homeless pets, and in the lives of families seeking a companion animal.
