PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.

About Spright

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Species: Dog
  • Housetrained: Yes

Spright is a 1-year Chihuahua/Maltese mix surrendered by her owner in the midst of a family crisis.  Spright was relegated to living outdoors for 4 months during that time.  The neglect, stress, poor diet and a severe flea infestation caused her to go bald.  After being rescued, she is doing much better.  Her hair has begun to grow (although she still looks somewhat like a Chinese Crested).  Her hair will grow to about 4 inches in length, so she will require regular grooming.  Spright has been spayed and is current on vaccinations, as well as flea/tick and heartworm preventives.  This little dog is absolutely charming -- highly intelligent, lively and affectionate.  She is house-trained, leash-trained and enjoys riding in the car.  She currently lives in a foster home with 11 other dogs and 5 cats.   She likes the other dogs, but she really likes the cats, who are closer in size.  Spright would not do well with small, screaming, fast-moving children who would frighten her and be too rough (she’s fully-grown at 8 lb.)  However, she loves people in general and would like older, gentler children, especially if they’ll throw the tennis ball for her.  She retrieves like a lab.  If you can see past her temporary cosmetic challenge and look into her eyes, you’ll know that this little dog is very special.  For more information, please email kelley.aasr@gmail.com Spright is located in Arkansas but will be transported to the northeast once adopted.
