Meet Sparky, a gentle and loyal companion with a sweet nature and a calm demeanor. Sparky is an American Staffordshire Terrier mix, estimated to be born on February 2, 2022, and weighs 53lbs. He's happiest by your side, whether you're cuddling on the couch or enjoying a peaceful walk. Sparky loves belly rubs, fresh air, and spending time with his people. He's mellow and easygoing at home, happily matching your pace. Sparky enjoys walks and trips to the dog park, where he walks nicely on a leash, though he can get a little excited by squirrels. He does well with other dogs, especially with calm introductions and when new friends take things slow. Sparky would do best in a home that understands his gentle nature and allows him time to settle in and feel safe. In return, he'll offer unwavering loyalty, quiet companionship, and immense love.

Transporation
Sparky is currently located in Houston, TX. Out-of-state transport is available for an additional fee. We coordinate with multiple transport services that operate weekly to Eastern states and bi-weekly or monthly to Western states from Texas to your state or a neighboring state. These are ground transports using third-party vehicles (vans/buses) converted for dog transport. Each adopter has the ability to track the van using the app Life360, and receives updates from transport along the way. Facebook chats are another resource to stay informed on tracking dogs on transport. Please be able to use one of these available services if you wish to follow your adopted dog on transport.
