SPARKY HAS A NEW HOME AND FAMILY owner rehomed to family member Sparky, like his sister Midnight, have been turned into us for rehoming. The owner who has had them both since they were 10 weeks has decided to change her life and move on into a place that cannot accept them. Like many people who rehome their pets, these dogs were loved but remained untrained during their entire lives.

Sparky is a stunning Belgium long haired Shepherd weighing in at about 85 pounds, most of which is hair. He is an 8 year old calm and sweet dog whose led a sheltered life in his home. He is of course housebroken but untrained. He would have to go into class to learn to sit, down and stay on command where he only seems to do that at home. He is affectionate and seeks attention after a few minutes time. He like people and attention but isn't that keen on brushing, but tolerates it. He does pull on a lead and hasn't had many life experiences. He is not phased by thunder and was here with me during a storm with only a limited reaction. He would be perfect for an older couple with lots of time on their hands as he would have to be trained. He has lived with other smaller dogs, his sister Midnight and 6 cats so he is easy to put with other animals.
Sparky is neutered and has all shots and is HW negative. He is a sweet dog who craves attention and is a couch potato for lack of a better description. He has good hips and likes to run free and play. He has never been abused and always cared for. He is not destructive and crate trained. He was never taught to swim and did grow up around kids.
If Sparky or Midnight are dogs that could make your life compete, please call for an appointment to see them... they can also be fostered before adopting to see if they fit your lifestyle.
