Hi. I’m Sparky’s mom, Becky. I’ll tell you the story I don’t want Sparky to know. He was terrorized and abused by his previous owner, who threw Sparky against a wall and shattered his left front leg, which had to be amputated. He came to me just after the surgery, a frightened and confused little dog, weighing only half of what he should. Four years later, he has gained weight, settled down considerably, isn’t afraid anymore, and, as he puts it, he really likes peoples. I hope you enjoy reading about his adventures. Thanks for reading.
Sparky,
I would love to meet you! Do you hunt rats? We don’t have any rats but sometimes mice. Maybe you would come for a visit?
Also, you have to learn how to post pictures. We love pictures of cute and cute.
Welcome Sparky! (And Becky!) I have to say that my husband and I would really love to meet your former owner for about 5 minutes in a secluded, sound-proof area.
Okay, now that’s out of my system, so I’ll concentrate on you! Sparky, you sound like a really cool guy! I would love to meet you. Where are you? We’re in So Cal. I can’t wait to read all about your adventures, because I bet you have a lot of them. Tell your Mom to post some photos of you!!!!
well sparky, you are one lucky guy to find a great mom like becky!!! don’t even try to think back about ‘then’, just keep living in the ‘now’. we are excited that you joined our family here, and are very anxious for pictures – pictures, pictures and more pictures…. glad you are doing so well, give your mom a big kiss for rescuing you!!!

Hi Sparky!!! We like doggies so we’re so happy you’re here!!! This place has lots of doggies and peoples. Everyone is very nice. Can you post some pictures so we can see how pretty you are?

My goodness. As we say around here, mean people suck. And it seems like Sparky met some mean people. I wish I could say he is the only dog here who lost a leg through cruelty, but that would be a lie. It is always gratifying to see these dogs find some real love in the world. Thank you for being that person for Sparky.
Dakota did not lose a leg through cruelty, but he was abused and abandoned as a pup and also had a long road to travel before he could act like a happy dog. I understand that part.
Sparky and Becky, welcome and please let us read all about the adventures of a rat terrier tripawd. There is some kind of unwritten rule here that says you have to post a bazillion pictures or we will all cry. So…please don’t make us cry!

Dear Sparky,
I am making the pictures of you and will send them so you can pick the ones you like the best. You were a good boy when I took the pictures tonight, but I think you are sometimes silly and silly. I will show the pictures to Poochie too.
