Spice wandered through the cold desert until she came upon a house on the outskirts of Elko. She followed the warm lights to the porch and whined and scratched on the door. The people opened it to find a shivering, bloated dog stranded in the cold in the middle of no where. As they brought her in and warmed her up, she started giving birth to the puppies that she had kept from being born in the freezing desolate high desert.

After the 9th puppy came out, the couple realized they may be in over their heads. They transported mom and her 9 pups to the Elko shelter. The shelter knew that their environment was not the best to house puppies and sent out a please to rescues. Boxers and Buddies took the then 3 week old pups and mom into a foster home. Spice was very skinny – giving all of her nutrients to keep her growing puppies alive. She quickly pup on weight and she and her puppies thrived.

In her foster home she has proven to be housebroken, good when left alone, and a total food hound! She is sweet with dogs of all sizes and genders, good with kids and great at sounding an alarm for strangers. There isn’t an aggressive bone in her body.

Now Spice’s puppies are old enough to find homes of their own. She did her job – all 9 puppies survived thanks to her determination. Now we’re determined to find Spice the perfect home. She did her job, now it’s time for us to do ours. Everyone needs to Spice up their lives!
