DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Meet Pup Speckles! Speckles and his sister, Pup Freckles, were picked up as strays with little hope of making it out of a rural Alabama shelter — until K-9 Lifesavers stepped in to save the day! Now that they're safe, these two are ready to find their forever homes.
This handsome fella sports a gorgeous black and white coat and the most soulful dark eyes. But it's not just his good looks that'll win you over — Speckles is extremely sweet, gentle, and absolutely wonderful with other dogs.
At his young age, Speckles is in his prime for training and socialization. He will be a fabulous addition to an active home that can match his enthusiasm for life! It would have been a shame if K-9 Lifesavers hadn't stepped in — and now it's your turn to be his hero. Apply today and change this very deserving dog's life forever.
Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.
Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (at partner vet if not fixed before adoption), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dog also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets.

ABOUT: DALMATIAN DOG BREED
The Dalmatian is a distinctive breed known for its iconic black or liver spotted coat. This medium sized dog possesses a friendly and energetic temperament, making it an excellent family companion. Originally bred as carriage dogs, Dalmatians are athletic and require regular exercise to maintain their physical and mental well being. With its unique appearance and loyal nature, the Dalmatian is a popular choice for those seeking an active and devoted canine companion.
The Pointer is a versatile and athletic dog breed known for its exceptional hunting skills and high energy levels. With a strong, sleek build and keen sense of smell, Pointers excel in bird hunting, especially in open fields.

Their short coat requires minimal grooming, and their friendly nature and loyal temperament make them beloved members of the family.
