Meet Genie — a 5-month-old, 20-pound Shepherd mix with a heart as big as her adorable ears! This super sweet and loving girl is full of puppy charm and happiness. She loves everyone she meets and is always ready to make new friends, whether they have two legs or four.

Genie’s favorite activity? Zoomies, of course! She can turn any backyard or living room into her own personal racetrack, then happily settle down for cuddles when playtime is over. She’s the perfect mix of playful fun and affectionate snuggles.

Like any smart young pup, Genie is working on her house training and learning how to use the dog door. With a little patience and consistency, she’ll have it mastered in no time.

Genie is already spayed and current on all vaccinations, so she’s ready to pack her bags and head to her forever home. If you’re looking for a sweet, happy, loving puppy to bring laughter and joy into your life, Genie may be your perfect match!

Pleas understand you are committing to providing a good home for her entire life (up to 15+ years or more) - not just until her puppy cuteness wears off.

You must be committed to housebreaking, age-appropriate enrichment and exercise, leash training, grooming needs, and positive socialization. Like most puppies, she may chew on anything within her reach to include but not limited to baseboards, shoes, socks, children's toys, electrical cords, plants, etc.

Her adoption fee is $200. This includes her spay surgery, rabies vaccination, Nobivac® Canine 1-DAPP vaccinations, Bravecto®, Drontal® Plus, Tri-Heart® Plus Chewable Tablet, 24PetWatch® microchip, and leash and collar.

Please be aware that puppies and small breed dogs do get adopted quickly so interested parties are encouraged to apply online at www.saspca.org.

Please ensure your application is complete before submitting. We do verify property ownership, landlord references, apartment/HOA restrictions, veterinary references.

Our adoption events are held every other Saturday at Petco located in the Northwoods Shopping Center at 18138 San Pedro Ave, San Antonio TX 78232. Event hours are 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
