Story
I’m Tamale! I’m about two years old. My rescue thinks I’m a chihuahua mix. Since I’ve arrived at foster care in May 2022, I’ve learned so much! I know how to sit, “touch,” lie down, and come when called. I’m very curious and loving. I love to play fetch and tug. My favorite thing to do is chew on a toy until I fall asleep on my foster’s lap. I love cuddling! I'm living and thriving in my foster home with another female dog! We play and even cuddle on the couch. In my previous foster home, I was pretty stressed by the resident cats. I would do best in a home with no cats and no children. I’d love a home where I can go on long walks in the woods and play ball. I also enjoy car rides. I love hiking with all my dog friends in a big group! I have a ton of love to give, I just need a family of my own. Please apply if you want to be my family. Neutered, up to date on vaccines, house trained, crate trained, and healthy! Currently being fostered in Trumbull, CT.

Cricket being 5 yrs old and weighing 7 lbs is such a precious soul. Not a mean bone in his tiny body, no nipping, no growling. Takes life changes with grace and carries his head high. Loves to just sit on your lap and be with you where ever you are. Gets along with his 4 legged buddies and plays tag & catch me games. Would do great with older kids or an older person just to be able to relax and take life easy. Cricket is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. This dog has tested neg for heartworms. The adoption fee is $450 if your adoption is prepaid and final prior to your dog's arrival.

Story
Meet Aurora, the Roman Goddess of the Dawn. She is affectionate and sweet 8lb puppy who embraces life enthusiastically. She starts each day with eyes wide open ready to explore any new adventure. She loves all dogs, especially those of similar size. She requests her future home to have another dog and be willing and able to enroll her in a training class as she is very smart. She would be safest in a securely fenced yard as she is very resourceful and could easily escape. Aurora is pee pad trained but is adapting well to house-training. Her new home would need to continue encouraging this transition. To be considered to adopt Aurora please complete an application on our website www.spottydogrescue.org. ##1865559##

After you submit your application, please allow a few days for a volunteer to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We match up the best home for the animal, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not mean he/she will be adopted to that home. Once your application has been approved a volunteer with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the animal you are interested in.
