🐾 Hi there, I’m Speckle! 🐾

You might have seen me on social media when I was in the spotlight, not exactly the glamorous kind, though. I was affectionately known as the "momma dog" who spent my days lying too close to the road on Hwy 365, right beside Speck Cabinets in Maumelle. And that's where my name came from, Mr. Jake at Speck Cabinets was always so kind to me. Every once in a while I would go in the big garage doors of his cabinet company and hang out and he never chased me away and would give me yummy treats. He is a very kind man and I am so thankful to him for giving me space to feel safe so I could be near humans after being abandoned by others. It's pretty lonely living under an abandoned house taking care of my babies who were just a couple of weeks old and it always made me feel some comfort to be near someone so nice. I used to be loved and Jake reminded me of what all people should be like, kind.

I am so blessed because on top of Jake, there were some incredible humans that came together to help me and my babies. A heartfelt thank you to Debbie Nash, Preston Nolan, and all the amazing neighbors like Jake, Miss Doreen, Mr. Vernon and Miss Sarah who worked tirelessly to rescue us, even tearing up the floorboards of an abandoned house where I was keeping my puppies hidden.

The rescue people now call me and my babies the "Speckle Squad" because Jake at Speck Cabinets was so important in all of this. I might seem reserved at first, but trust me, my tail is always ready to wag at the thought of new friends. I’ve been in rescue for about a week now, adjusting to my new surroundings while being a caring mom to my pups.

I’ve had a tough past, being abandoned and living under that old house, but I’m a good mom and I have a tender heart and I am ready to love again and be loved. As I decompress and come out of my shell, the nice rescue people will update you all! Also, if you know of anyone wanting to adopt any of my cute babies, please tell them to ask about Chip, Dottie, Bon Bon and Dollop! I hope you will ask to meet me or one of my babies!
