Mitch Kirby sent this story about his Sparky: "I really can't say much about him as I do not know that much about his background or where he came from, but one day I raised my hand trying to teach him the hand signal for sit and he cowered almost instantly - abused!

In just two weeks he has mastered sit, stay, heel, lay down and we still are working "come here" but this little guy is really coming along. Sparky craves my attention and I give him all I can.

I also give him two other playmates, in Max, my 3-year-old Golden, and Murphy, my 8-yr-old Cocker Spaniel. They all get along great and spend many hours playing together down in our River Valley! Welcome home Sparky!"


November 2007 Update
Here is an updated photo of a senior Sparky boy, still sweet as ever.
