    Meet Sprout!

    Oh sweet Sprout. This little dude has had such a journey and he is only one year old. Sprout was rescued from an abandoned property in rural WA in the freezing winter months. He was clearly very unsocialized and we spent months rehabilitating him and getting him used to being around humans. During this time, Sprout, who is only 5 lbs and soooo tiny, broke his leg and ended up needing surgery and a cast for 8 weeks. We also learned he occasionally has a seizure so we took him to a neurologist for an MRI,  spinal tap and full work up to make sure he was okay. He has had two seizures that we know of in the months he has been with us, but none since his neurology appointment. It is possible he will need seizure medication at some point, but it is not recommended at this time. His MRI and spinal tap were normal. 

    Sprout has come so far and has learned that laps are meant for sitting on and that humans make the best snuggle companions. He is still shy and skittish and still has a ways to go but he is ready now to be loved on by his forever person. We would like to see him with someone who recognizes the struggle this sweet boy has been through and who is willing to support him as he continues to blossom. His precious face captures so many hearts and we know the right home is out there for him. 

    Due to his tiny size, Sprout is too fragile to live with young children. 

    Sprout is vaccinated, neutered and chipped. His adoption fee is $395.


    We cover the medical to prepare the pet for adoption and the adopt donations go directly to cover those costs and range from $295-$495.  Thank you for stepping up to save a life!
