My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

**ADOPTION FEE FULLY SPONSORED

~Wolfie Fun Facts~

1) Joined FFAA all the way back at the beginning of August in 2023! He quickly found a home as a puppy, but due to unexpected lifestyle changes, he no longer fit in with his family and had to come back. Since then, we've watched him grow up and mature. He's now a tall, dark, grownup boy with the sweetest nature ever.

2) Currently the biggest dog at FFAA and has been for months (he's fast approaching 90 lbs). He's now 1 year and a few months old -- more than 3/4 of his life spent at the shelter.

3) FANTASTIC with other dogs; has had many playmates during his stay of all ages, sizes, breeds, and genders. He is tolerant yet playful, jumping in with all 4 paws but not interested in conflicts.

4) Has great manners on a leash and off. He's not needy but he likes to be by your side.

5) Low-medium energy -- as he reaches full maturity and outgrows his puppy-ish-ness, we see him excelling as a professional couch potato.

6) Wolfie has a ton of fun during playgroup (playing with other shelter dogs). He loves fetch, chewing on bones and sticks, and LOVES trick training for treats. He knows sit and down, has nice leash manners, and picks up other tricks super duper fast.

7) Not a vocal dog EXCEPT for when he's excited - then he starts "gargling."

8) Dog friendly, not great with cats, does well with children who are respectful and dog savvy.

9) Traits: Chill, easy-going, matches energy level, great to join you on an adventure or to laze the day away at home in bed.

10) Information we have gathered about Wolfie from his previous placement:
a) Good on a leash
b) Loves to work for treats
c) Picks up new tricks lightning fast
d) Incredible eye contact
e) Lover boy always ready for belly rubs.
f) Easily trainable and already has the basic skills down
g) Obedient and receptive even in new and uncomfortable situations
h) In only a few days, Wolfie learned:
-A solid recall (coming when called)
-Sitting and waiting for his food & other impulse control exercises
-Understood and responded to just verbal corrections reminding him to calm down

After reading all of these facts about him, the only logical conclusion that we can come to is that no one is more deserving of a forever home than our gentle giant Wolfie.

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in one of our adoptable pets, you can visit the the Adoption Center and fill out a paper application, fill out our application online from our website, or submit a request to receive one by email. Once your application has been reviewed and approved, you are welcome to come by the center during our open hours for a meet-and-greet! We also ask that our dog applicants who have dogs of their own bring their current dog/s for a meet-and-greet with the potential new family member as well.

If the animal you are interested in has no other applications in and FFAA staff feel that you are a good fit, approved applicants may finalize the adoption the same day!

Email adopt.ffaa@gmail.com for any questions!

All animals are spayed or neutered before adoption, are up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, and are microchipped.

Our website: https://www.ffaaneosho.org/

If you choose to fill out an application online, click on the link to our website, hover over "Adopt," and then select either "Cat" or "Dog" to fill out the application that matches the species of the animal you are interested in - our dog and cat applications have different questions!

More about this shelter

Faithful Friends Animal Advocates, Inc is a non-profit organization committed to helping our community become a place where animals are treated with kindness and respect. Further, we want to be a voice for the welfare of animals in our community through various avenues.

We fulfill these goals by taking in homeless and vulnerable animals, rehabilitating, vetting, and preparing them for their future home, and ensuring that they are a good fit for those interested. Our goal is longevity - we are thorough when approving applications because we want their next home to be forever.

Our pledge to the animals under our charge knows no time limits. Our no-kill mission means that as long as it takes, we will keep searching for their perfect home. And if during that search, they need to rejoin our care, we welcome them with open arms no matter how long it has been.

People
From our paid staff to volunteers that support us at events and throughout the week, the dedicated and passionate community members that are involved in FFAA's mission are what keep us going. We always welcome new faces! If you are interested or know someone who would like to support our efforts, please contact us. We could not do it without our foster families, dog walkers, kennel cleaners, puppy and kitten socializers, event organizers, artists, chefs - everything we do is a group effort and thanks to the time and effort given freely and faithfully year after year.
