SPRUCE's Story

Meet Spruce – A Resilient Girl Ready to Bloom <br/><br/>Spruce arrived at the shelter on July 3rd after a kind citizen found her wandering into their yard. When she came in, she was underweight, her nails were painfully overgrown, and she was missing patches of fur. Despite everything she’d been through, Spruce greeted everyone with a gentle spirit and a wagging tail.<br/><br/> Our vet team immediately started treatment for her skin and ear issues, and she’s been improving day by day with proper care and love. She’s shown that her heart is just as strong as her will to heal. <br/><br/>Spruce is a smart and friendly girl who already knows several commands—sit, shake, lay down, and even roll over! She walks nicely on leash, only pulling a bit when she’s excited to explore. Out on walks, she’s food-motivated, enjoys meeting new people, and loves belly rubs. <br/><br/>In playgroups, Spruce has been polite with other dogs—she tends to do her own thing, following handlers around and soaking up attention—but she’s started to show more of a playful side as she gains confidence. <br/><br/>Spruce would thrive in a calm, loving home or foster environment where she can continue healing, both inside and out. She’s an affectionate, energetic companion who’s ready to trade her kennel for cozy naps, gentle care, and a family to love her for the beautiful soul she is. <br/><br/>If you’re ready to help Spruce blossom into her best self, she’s waiting for you.
