About Spencer

Meet Spencer, a lively and affectionate Pug mix who's eager to find his forever home. Born in November 2025, Spencer is still very much a puppy, filled with playful energy and affection. His previous owner had to make the tough decision to rehome him due to rising pet rents, so now he's on the lookout for a loving family. Spencer is fully housetrained and ready to join your household. While he understands the basics, continuing obedience training will help him refine his manners. He loves meeting new friends and gets along well with children, even those as young as two. Due to his excitement, Spencer might jump when greeting little ones, so a home willing to guide him in practicing polite interactions would be ideal. His adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccines, and microchip. Ready to give Spencer the home he deserves? Click apply to start the adoption process.
