About Sprinkles

She's shown good behavior around other dogs, although she hasn’t been playful just yet. Sprinkles would do best in a nurturing home that understands her shy nature. She's not yet spayed, and interested adopters can participate in a Foster-to-Adopt program, which allows fostering until the spay surgery is completed. Note that fostering is available only in and around Nevada County. Her adoption fee is $125, and she comes vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to start a new chapter in life.
