Sallie - Cocker Spaniel Dog for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Meet adorable & adoptable Sallie, a 6-month-old pint-sized force of nature Cocker Spaniel, with strong suspicions of some Cavalier magic mixed in.
Named after the famously witchy sister from Practical Magic, Sallie has apparently taken her name very seriously. She is tiny, spirited, energetic, and completely convinced she is invincible--which is impressive, considering she is approximately the size of a throw pillow.
Sallie is working hard on her housetraining and making progress. She absolutely loves playing with other dogs and has enough energy to keep a whole household entertained. She's sweet, silly, fearless, and just a little bit magical. If you're looking for a tiny dog with a giant personality, Sallie may just cast a spell on you.
Sallie would do best in a home without shared walls, and with a securely fenced yard where she can burn off some of that puppy energy. Because she is an active, busy little little girl who will inevitably spend plenty of time underfoot, her adopter should be comfortable and steady on their feet, with no mobility limitations that could make navigating puppy antics difficult. Most importantly, Sallie is looking for someone ready to make a lifelong commitment--she has 15+ years of mischief ahead of her, and she deserves a family ready to be there for all of it!
