Spanky - Pekingese Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Hi there! I'm Spanky a tiny little 6-pound bundle of puppy love, and at just two months old, I'm still discovering the world around me!

I'm a small breed mix who is adorable, curious, and still learning all about being a puppy. Since I'm a rescue, my personality is still coming out, so my foster family will get to watch me grow, learn, and blossom into the wonderful dog I'm meant to be.

Right now, I'm looking for a special foster-to-adopt family who will give me patience, love, guidance, and plenty of care while I learn all my puppy lessons. Once I'm old enough and medically ready to be fixed, my foster family can make it official and become my forever family!

I may be tiny, but I have a whole lot of growing-and loving-to do. Could you be the family I've been dreaming of?
