Meet Spanky, The Two-Month-Old Puppy Who Embodies Hope and a Fresh Start

This young mixed breed is looking for a forever home, a reminder of the joy and responsibility that comes with adopting a puppy.

There's a bundle of pure, unadulterated puppy energy waiting for a new beginning in theBangor Humane Society puppy room.

 

His name is Spanky, and at just two months old, he is the picture of curiosity and affection.

 

Weighing a mere six pounds, this medium mixed-breed pup represents both the incredible promise of a lifelong companion and a serious commitment.

 

Adopting a puppy like Spanky is a journey that requires patience, training, and constant socialization to help him grow into a well-mannered member of the family.

 

It's a decision that will reshape a household with love, laughter, and a few chewed-up slippers along the way.

 

Local shelter officials are emphasizing the importance of responsible ownership, especially in the wake of recent health concerns in the area.

 

A recent parvovirus scare has put local veterinarians and shelters on high alert.

 

For this reason, any family with a resident dog must provide proof of up-to-date distemper vaccinations before any meet-and-greet can be scheduled.

 

This is a non-negotiable step to protect Spanky, other dogs at the shelter, and the pets in our community.

 

It's a stark reminder of how vulnerable these young animals are.

 

If you're ready to open your heart and home to this sweet, playful puppy, the team at the shelter is eager to introduce you.

 

Are you ready to adopt a puppy?

 

Bringing a two-month-old puppy home is a significant life change. They require frequent potty breaks, consistent training, and lots of attention. It is a rewarding experience, but one that requires a family ready for the challenge and joy of raising a young dog.

 

What are the requirements for adoption?

 

Beyond the vaccination proof for existing dogs, potential adopters should be prepared for a conversation about their home environment and lifestyle. The shelter's goal is to ensure every adoption is a permanent, successful match for both the puppy and the family.
