Story
Hank has been through a lot, so he has some 'special needs' - he needs a nice comfy bed in the sun where he loves to take a nap, he needs a human who will give him lots of cuddles and attention, he needs a good walk because he loves to go exploring and most of all, he is a sweet and gentle little guy who needs a forever family ☺️. Little Hank is mostly blind, but clearly he didn't read that memo because this little man hasn't let a little thing like that stop him from loving life! ** Ark Rescue dogs are available for adoption to homes in the Alabama and Tennessee Valley area only. We do require a secure fenced-in yard to adopt our larger dogs.

Story
Sparky is an 8 year old Chi-Wienie that weighs 12 pounds.  He lost his home thru no fault of his own.  Sparky needs time to warm up to new people.  He is friendly and sweet with people he knows, but might hide from those he doesn't know yet.  He is potty pad trained and crate trained.  Sparky loves to sleep covered up in a blanket and rolled up like a burrito.  This boy is a silly, funny little clown, that needs a quiet home without a lot of noise.  An older person would be preferred.  He is neutered, fully vaccinated, heartworm negative and on monthly heartworm and flea preventives.  Sparky's adoption fee is a donation to the rescue in the amount of $300.October 26, 2026, 12:09 pm
