r he's zooming around the house to celebrate your arrival or flopping over for his favorite activity (belly rubs, of course!), Sprite lives life with a smile and a wagging tail. One of the cutest things about Sprite? The second you walk through the door, he acts like you've been gone for years! Expect the happiest welcome committee around, complete with zoomies, tail wags, and enough excitement to make every day feel like a celebration. Sprite is a true social butterfly who loves making new friends—both human and canine. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would be thrilled to have a furry sibling to play and cuddle with. Even better? He's potty trained, making the transition into his forever home even easier! Sadly, Sprite's story didn't start out as happily as his personality. He came from a hoarding situation before arriving at the shelter, and had a cherry eye that had to be surgically corrected. Despite everything he's been through, he has never stopped believing people are worth loving. Now he's hoping someone will finally give him the safe, forever home he's always deserved. With his tiny legs, giant heart, and irresistible face, Sprite is impossible not to fall in love with. He's the perfect size for couch cuddles, neighborhood walks, road trips, camping adventures, or simply supervising your daily activities from the nearest comfy pillow.

Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animals while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the shelter or rescue group who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the group to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome pets. The dogs in our care are fostered in Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. While all dogs are picked up during our scheduled times, sometimes transport dates change due to unforeseen circumstances.
