Story
***When responding please use application at sparrowdogs.com, or feel free to tell us a little about yourself(dog experience, home, other pets...) Yep, that is him, Scrappy Joe. He actually has a body that can hold up those ears, and since coming to HOPE rescue has put on some weight and also simmered down his scrappy attitude quite a few notches, lol. Poor guy didn't catch a break in the first 5 years of his life it seems. Remember those horrific storms and tornadoes that blew thru the Chicago area last July? They were brutal. Well, this little guy spent a good part of that horrific time in his little crate, dumped in someones yard in the pouring rain!! Luckily it was a kind hearted person that took him into the vet clinic she worked at. They cared for Scrappy and even sheared him down(under anesthesia). He was a little force to be reckoned with, very fearful and defensive. He did not bite anyone, still hasn't, but sure puts on a good show of bravado when he feels the need.(not so much anymore). They contacted us, since we have found our little niche taking in so many dogs that need a little extra patience and understanding. Often, we are their last HOPE! Little Scrappy Joe has come a long way from that fearful little boy. He has been with us for months, and has made himself at home. He ADORES the other dogs, his toys, being outside and exploring the yard. He even snuggles in to his people in the evening for TV and snacking on peanuts. Plus, he is totally housebroken and pretty well mannered. He listens well, and is a smart little guy. But--he still has his triggers. He is sensitive about being touched around his hips or if someone is reaching over to pet him or the dog next to him on occasion. He did well with a Thanksgiving get together with new people. They were instructed to basically ignore him. He did get some pets, and some snacks, and had a nice time. Scrappy Joe, or as we call him now, JoeJoe, will need a very patient and understanding home. We will not be adopting him to a home with children. He needs a dog savvy home, a fenced yard is a plus as well as another playful dog. JoeJoe has so much potential. The way someone else has treated this poor guy in the past should not shape his future, he is truly putting that behind him. He just needs that special person to help him on that journey. He is about 10 pounds, 5 years old and is as cute as can be!! Please email Kristine at joysparrows@gmail.com. His adoption fee is $150, he will go home with plenty of supplies to help him settle into his new home!

Story
Hi, My name is Benny...Ben...Ben...Benny, I'm as fast as a flying squirrel and I can fly (well jump) like one too!!! I also love to make a nest and curl up in your lap and take a nap. I also gather up toys and take them to my little tree. Foster momma says it is a kennel. So, I guess that means I am kennel trained, whatever that means. I go in there when it is time to eat or foster momma leaves. I am potty trained. I learned I needed to go outside and do my business from my foster siblings. I love my foster siblings. We play chase, we wrestle, and we take turns with toys. I like to take all of them out of the basket to find the perfect toy! I am also a little scavenger if there is paper, kleenex, or anything I can tear up, consider it done!!! I would love to have a family that is as active as I am. I am a busy body. Now, about my back story. I was found in a grocery store parking lot. The nice ladies tried to find my family, but were unable. They reached out to God's Dogs and asked them if I could join their family and here I am. That night I met my foster momma, grandmomma, and siblings. I DO NOT LIKE HATS!!! Foster momma had one on and I did not want to go anywhere near her. So, if you think you can handle a little squirrel, adopt me. I am your guy!!! Local adoption fee is $400 out of state adoption fee with transport and fuel surcharge is $650
