Karma is approximately 5-5-1/2 yo, spayed, up to date on shots, heartworm negative & ~65 lbs.  Karma is super fun, loving, athletic and loves the water. She would love to be adventurous with you or just snuggle on the couch & binge watch some tv. Spayed, utd on vaccines, heartworm negative & microchipped. She keeps a clean kennel, not a fan of cats & with proper introduction would probably be OK living with another (male) dog.

Story
SPOT is looking for a foster or adopter.  Not only is he incredibly handsome, he’s smart & athletic too!  He would excel at agility or parkour!  Running buddy, you bet! Hiking, let’s go!  He’s also a tug-o-war enthusiast.  Spot is approximately 1.5yo, up to date on shots, neutered & microchipped.   He would be best as your only four legged companion or could possibly live with other dogs after decompression & SLOW introductions.   The shelter & other dogs stress him out, so after he has a walk/potty break the volunteers love to let him hang out with them while they clean.  He loves to just grab a bone or rope toy & entertains himself, that’s his version of helping.   If Interested in meeting Spot, please complete an application at sapamo-rescue.org. December 8, 2025, 9:28 pm
