More Info: I have been at the shelter since May 01, 2026.
I am currently in a foster home.
Spencer (A567284) has been here for about a week now and we are genuinely surprised he has not been reclaimed.
He arrived in great condition, has solid manners and appears to be housetrained. This boy seems like someone’s dog. Yet, no one has come for him.
He walks well on a leash, loves treats and even points at birds and squirrels like a proper hunting dawg. It is charming and hilarious every time he freezes and focuses like he has a mission only he understands. Spencer is a good boy, but he does have one small quirk. He gets a little weird about things happening near his neck area. This can include clipping a leash on, fastening a collar or anything that feels unfamiliar to him in that spot.
To keep him comfortable, we ask adopters to let a kennel attendant help with leashing if needed. In a quieter home with routine and predictability, he may relax about it completely, but here in a noisy shelter it clearly stresses him out. Once the leash is on though, he is all sweetness and curiosity.
Spencer is a wonderful dog for someone willing to give him a little patience and a gentle introduction to the world again.
Spencer is estimated to be around 6 years old and weighs 47 pounds. All animals adopted from Huntsville Animal Services are microchipped, appropriately vaccinated, spayed/neutered and given a 30 day flea/tick preventative.
Ready to meet Spencer? Stop by 4950 Triana Blvd SW in Huntsville, Alabama. No appointment is necessary to meet our available animals. All adopters must be 19 years or older and be able to provide a valid ID.
