Spackle Jim is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

He was stray.

Spackle Jim is a 10-year-old, 15-pound, male, Terrier mix.

Spackle Jim was found as a stray and taken to a shelter by a good Samaritan. He stayed there for a few weeks. When nobody claimed him, Spackle Jim was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS).

He's a handsome pup who can fill the cracks of your heart and make your house a home. He’s reserved when meeting new friends. He will do well with a patient family that will give him the time and space to get comfortable.
