Meet Sprout

Sweet Sprout is 6 weeks old. He is just learning the dos and don'ts of puppy hood and he has to learn a different way than his sisters. He was born without a fully developed vertabrae and therefore the spinal cord does not go all the way down like it should. He does have control of his bladder and bowels, and he is learning to walk (more like a cute hop) in his own way. The vet said he will live a completely normal life, just will get around differently. We aren't 100% sure of his breed. He is a sweet mutt! His mom was taken in by a good Samaritan before they even knew she had babies! Mom, Junie, is about 25 lbs so we think the Sprout will be between 25 and 40 lbs, our best guess. Sprout  will need a committed family that is active, patient and willing to make at least a 15 year commitmen. If you would like to make Sprout a part of your family, fill out an application at www.barktownrescue.org.  Sprout's adoption fee is $200

Adoption Process
First, we do ask that an application be filled out on the animal the person is interested in. Once approved, we can set up to meet the animal, which will already be vetted (spayed or neutered, vaccinated, heart worm tested, etc.). The fee for adoption starts at $125. There is a contract that also needs signed at the time of adoption.
