Meet Sprite!
Hi, my name is Sprite and I’m an adorable little terrier mix with a big heart. I was found out in the countryside, and it took my foster mom about three weeks to finally catch me because I was on a mission to explore! The cars out there were scary, but now I’m safe and loving my new life.
I’m the sweetest girl who absolutely LOVES belly rubs. I get along great with kids and other dogs, and I’m having so much fun discovering toys—now that I know what they are, I think they’re the best thing ever! When I’m done playing, I’m also an excellent cuddler who loves to snuggle on the couch.
I’m still learning a few new things, but with patience and love, I’ll keep blossoming into the perfect companion.

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
