Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Fiddle initially came to Home Fur Good from the county shelter back in May. Fiddle is an amazing mutt! He is a two-year-old, 49-pound mystery. County had him listed as a Griffon Vendeen mix. A Home Fur Good volunteer did some Google searching and suggests that he might be a Basset Fauve de Bretagne; how is that for a mouthful? Fiddle has not had the best of luck finding a forever home. He has been adopted twice and they were not successful. His first adopters decided they would prefer a smaller dog. Fiddle might have shortie legs, but he’s not the kind that can be carried around in a purse. His second adopters ended up getting an additional job and then ended up not having enough time to spend with Fiddle. Fiddle has big feet, he is a scruffy, he is bow-legged, and he is a low-rider. Yes, he is adorable but completely awkward; grace is not his middle name. Fiddle absolutely loves water; he is a huge fan of the play pools in the yards. He rolls and splashes and has the time of his life in there. Fiddle is a very happy boy, and he is up for any adventure you have planned. He loves to socialize, explore, and play with a good squeaky toy. Come on down and meet this unique boy. The adoption fee for Fiddle is $300, which is higher than it would be under our normal fee schedule. That is because he is one of our Guardian Angel dogs. Guardian Angel dogs are highly desirable adoptees, and their increased fees are used expressly to help defray costs for our rescues with special needs such as advanced medical treatment or training for behavioral issues, or for those who are with us for unusually long periods of time. In this way the Guardian Angels directly help our other rescues! All adoption fees include spaying/neutering, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipping, and a free wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital. Our adoption hours are Thursday-Saturday from 11:00 am-4:00 pm by appointment only.
