Brotherly Love
Sparky and Spooky need to be met together, because they are a bonded pair! These retriever boys were brought in together by animal control way back in August 2009. They have been housed together as they wait for a home, and they get along famously!
Sparky has the longer hair of the pair. Sparky is the one most likely to greet you first - he is full of smiles and wags and enjoys being fussed over.
Sparky has a beautiful longer coat that needs regular grooming. He did great with being groomed and seemed to enjoy the extra attention. He even got a little frisky afterward due to feeling so good, tho these boys are close to adult age (at least 2 probably 3 years old) and pretty calm.
Spooky gets his name from his gorgeous golden eyes. They are so pretty, they give you chills. Spooky is a little more reserved than Sparky, but Sparky has really taught him how great it is to greet people and get attention. He has a general calmness to him, and you can see in their group shot how much Sparky admires his brother Spooky.
Sparky and Spooky show signs of not having had all the love they deserve in the past. Neither one knows how to walk on a leash - they will cling to your legs as if uncertain what you expect of them. They both melt when being stroked, as if they've had very little stroking in the past, and absorb all your sweet-talk. They are emotionally dependent on each other, and we would LOVE for them to find the home they deserve, together.
Sparky and Spooky are offered for a single $90 adoption fee in the hopes that they can find a place together.
Got room for two?
Call (256)236-1581 or email ashelter@bellsouth.net if you can offer these boys "the good life" together.
