More About Me:Hello all, I am Specky. I am a loving and charming boy. I am good with people, dogs, cats, and even kids. I enjoy my friends and companions – both human and dog. I get along with cats, but if they run I will chase – I just can’t help myself. I also enjoy outings, meeting new people, and most of all being loved. I enjoy playing fetch and also like to play chase games. I love my people and enjoy their companionship. I have gone to my foster parents cabin and I always stay close to them. I am really good about hanging around my people, but I do like a good squirrel chase. My best friend is my Cocker foster brother – I just love him and give him tons of kisses and pal around with him everywhere, but they do feed us separate as I do not share my food well with him. I am quite the charmer. I am a really good boy with a great demeanor. I am even crate trained and house trained. I am looking forward to finding a home of my very own. The rescue had my knee and my hip fixed from a prior old injury so I am all good and fixed up. Please fill out an application to meet me because I would love to meet you!

FOSTER UPDATE
Specky is a delightful little dog. He is very social and outgoing. He loves to stay with you and does not wander off. He gets along well with all he meets. He enjoys his people and other dogs. He adapts quickly and enjoys everything that comes his way. He is very charming and personable. He was an only dog in his prior home and also has enjoyed the canine playmates in his foster home so either setting suits him well. He is a great little guy that would make a wonderful family member.

History: Specky has arrived from his home of two years due to the child in the house being unable to gently handle a dog. NWIPR was asked to bring Specky into rescue and find him a great home. We are so glad to have him join us in rescue.

NWIPR IS AN ALL VOLUNTEER REGISTERED NON-PROFIT 501c3 PUBLIC CHARITY
Your adoption donation is used to care for and vet the many dogs that enter into rescue from overcrowded shelters where their time is running out-ultimately they are on death row. Your adoption donation goes directly to the care of the many dogs that enter into rescue. All dogs leave rescue vaccinated, sterilized, microchipped, wormed, flea treated, and medically checked out. In some cases they receive dentals, ear flush, surgeries, and so on to ensure that they are healthy and ready to be adopted. Your adoption donation is very much appreciated and needed to help care for the many needy dogs that enter into rescue. New adopters receive a FREE exam coupon at a local veterinary clinic in Lynnwood OR a $30 care voucher to a veterinary chain (so be sure to ask about these coupons if you are interested).

NOTE: Please do not email for more dog info. This is all the info available until approved application is received and then you can talk directly to that dog's foster home for further info. Thank you!

NWIPR's adoption process includes completion of an adoption application, a vet check, screening, in person meeting, a home visit and a lifetime adoption contract. NWIPR is the pet's advocate and will select the most suitably matched home for the dog's general and unique needs, therefore adoptions are not done on a first come first serve basis. We reserve the right to refuse service and adoption for any reason.

PLEASE NOTE: The information contained within this pet’s biography is based on observations from the current foster home. NWIPR is very honest about the pet’s behavior and needs (and provides up to date information), we cannot guarantee they will behave in the same manner in a different environment with new owners as individual household dynamics vary greatly.

CONSIDER FOSTERING A DOG
***Do you or someone you know have the desire to help a rescue dog? If you have a loving heart, dog experience, a safe and secure yard and the notion to make a difference, please consider fostering a rescue dog. There are MANY dogs that we just do not have room for and just one person can make a world of difference to a dog that needs a safe place to rest his or her weary paws.....***
