Sparrow is a darling corgi with the softest soul and the sweetest little heart. As a breeder release, she came into foster care in January feeling unsure of the world—shy, withdrawn, and a bit afraid of people. But with time, patience, and the help of her foster corgi siblings, Sparrow has been quietly blossoming into the lovely companion she was always meant to be. She absolutely adores other dogs and fits in beautifully with dog-friendly pups, often taking her cues from them and gaining confidence along the way. A home with another friendly dog would be such a gift for her. Sparrow has discovered that the outdoors can be a pretty wonderful place and does great in a fenced yard where she can explore safely. Because she can be fearful of new things and may try to slip away when unsure, a secure fence is required for this little lady. True to her breed, Sparrow has a touch of that classic corgi sass and may let out a feisty bark here and there—but overall, she's a quieter girl. She does have mild food guarding (very "corgi" of her), but it's manageable and not over the top. One of the most special things about Sparrow? Her hidden love of being a lap dog. While she may not climb into your lap on her own just yet, if you gently scoop her up, she melts right in—nestling close and often drifting off to sleep. It's truly the sweetest thing and a glimpse into the affectionate girl she's becoming. She sleeps beautifully through the night, does well in her kennel when you're away, and is very close to being fully potty trained on a schedule. She's also learning leash skills and will need a properly fitted harness as she continues to build confidence out in the world. Sparrow is gentle, intelligent, and wonderfully even-tempered. She's still a bit skittish with new people and overwhelming environments, so she's looking for a calm, patient home that will give her the time and reassurance she needs to continue growing. Sparrow may have missed out on some of life's early experiences, but she is catching up more every day—and it's a beautiful thing to witness. With love and understanding, she is sure to blossom into the spunky, loving corgi she was always meant to be. Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter's expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there***
