Story
*********Please read bio fully before responding. We appreciate your interest in one of our dogs and it would be very helpful when you respond if you share information about yourself(home/yard, work hours, other pets, kids, dog experience..) Also, we do have an application at sparrowdogs.com that we will need in order to proceed with the adoption. THANK YOU!! We recently took in four dogs from an overcrowding situation, a home that just had way to many dogs! We are totally guessing at the breed(s) that may be involved in this crew, lol. I can see Maltese, perhaps some sort of terrier, maybe even a little bit of Chihuahua? Who knows, but we do know they are just adorable. The little family had been at a shelter for a time and were just not settling in, they were terrified. Yes, they were safe and warm, and cared for. But, despite that, it was not home, whatever that may have been. We are happy to say they are doing great on their foster home, they settled in very well being back in a home situation. That happened quicker than expected, within the first day they were anxious to be picked up and snuggled on a warm lap. They all love their toys, snuggly beds and quick trips out in this bitter cold. They are doing well with their house training. We do use potty pads and they will use them in between outdoor breaks. They are also shy meeting new people, it is a big new world out here and they need a little patience. So, we are looking for very loving, patient people that understand these guys need a little extra TLC, as far as settling in and continued reinforcement on the potty training. Their coats are in the process of healing as well, very common in such situations. Some of the had a bit of thinner hair that should soon fill in nicely in a more healthy situation. Lil Jelly Roll is a sweet, loving, active and snuggly guy. You would never know that he had ever had a rough day in his life. Of the four dogs that came from the crowded situation, he is the most outgoing and social. If there is a lap to be had in the house, Jelly will gladly warm it for you!! He is terrific with the other dogs and is a very gentle boy, he wants a family to love and appreciate all that he has to offer. We think he is pretty fantastic!! He is doing well with his potty training, and loves being outside running and playing. He will do well in a home that has tons of time to spend with him, another dog or two would be great! Jelly's adoption fee is $400. Please email Kristine at joysparrows@gmail.com.

Their coats are in the process of healing as well, very common in such situations. Some of the had a bit of thinner hair that should soon fill in nicely in a more healthy situation. We all hate to play favorites with our kids...or our dogs...but...I have to say that Lil Lainey just stole my heart. She had a rough past where apparently she did not get a lot of attention. She is shy, her hair is thin right now, and her face was a little scruffy. But, what a heart and personality she has, you just want to hold her and help her forget anything bad. And, when you do, she just relaxes, closes those sweet eyes and just absorbs it all. She loves to fall alsleep in our arms, Lainey is just too stinking cute. When she is not just loving up on us she is bringing us toys. We have some fuzzy cheeto's. She is forever carrying one around and wanting to snuggle in a lap with a cheeto, now doesn't that sound like your special girl!!?? I am not sure which she loves more, her toys or her snuggles? She will be shy meeting new people, and she has the cutest little raspy bark when she does, but she will settle in quickly with a loving and patient family. Lainey is a tiny girl, maybe 9 pounds, and is thought to be around 2 years old(maybe younger?). Her adoption fee is $400, please email Kristine at joysparrows@gmail.com.

Story
Small dog, big personality… and a real contender for the Energizer Pup award! Shooter McGavin is a spunky little white dog who’s always ready for the next round of play, especially with other dogs. He may start off a little shy—after all, it’s a big world for such a little guy—but once you earn his trust, he’ll be zooming circles around your heart. Just like his movie namesake, Shooter knows how to make an entrance… only he prefers tennis balls over golf balls!

Story
Hi, I’m Marshmallow! I’m a very sweet boy. Going for walks outside is one of my favorite things, especially when I get to explore the world with my person by my side. I’m looking for an adult-only home where I can feel calm, safe, and understood. I also need to be your one and only pet so I can enjoy all the love just for me. In a peaceful, quiet home, I know I’ll thrive and be the most loyal companion you could ask for!

Story
Casper is a young Maltese mix who was found as a stray, but you'd never know it by his cheerful spirit. This little guy is as sweet as they come - friendly, playful, and always ready to snuggle up with his favorite people. He loves to play fetch and is looking for someone to play with him! Being young, Casper still has a bit of that puppy energy and can get a little mouthy when he's excited. For that reason, we think he'll do best in a home with children 5 years and up, until he fully learns that little fingers aren't chew toys. He would thrive in a home with another dog due to his high energy and desire for a playful canine companion. Casper is full of love and joy, and he's ready to bring endless cuddles and fun into his forever home. Could you be the one to give this playful boy the loving family he deserves? Note: We cannot guarantee that any of our dogs are hypoallergenic.
