Sparkle is our 1-year-old shepherd mix. We got him as an 8-week-old puppy from the local shelter. His old owners had to give him away because they were moving to a place that didn't allow pets.
The first time I saw him he had been playing in the rain and was soaked. There was also a big sign on his cage that said "Adopted." You bet I was surprised when I found out my parents had adopted him!! I was a little sad too because I'd been hoping for a very cute Beagle/Sheltie girl at a shelter a day's drive away but we couldn't make the trip.
I've since grown to love Sparkle though more than almost anything else. He's a very good, smart dog though he does get a bit mischeivous sometimes. He's a beautiful boy and has been very healthy, well he used to get sick as a puppy after getting into stuff he shouldn't eat:p Other than that his only problem has been a few worms.
I could go on and on about him but you're probably getting bored so I'll stop:) I'll post pictures later, till then you can visit his gallery page:)
