My story

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

FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED:
Hey y'all, meet Buddy! He is a roughly 2-year-old, ~75 lb, Lab-Shar Pei mix with a high degree of intelligence, a desire to please, a love of play, and an insatiable appetite for love and affection.

This dog is a true love bug. Buddy will follow you around everywhere if you let him. He's highly trainable. He knows all the basic commands, plus "shake" and "high-five." He's really good at sitting and waiting for his treats and takes them so gently from your hand it's really quite remarkable.

As for his history, we don't know much... Buddy was found on the side of the road by a true good Samaritan, underfed and covered in scrapes and cuts. Nobody claimed him. So, under the care of his foster family, he has absolutely flourished. He currently lives with a family of four, including two grade school-aged boys. Due to how strong and ready-to-play he is, he'd likely do better with adults-only, or a household with bigger kids. This recommendation has more to do with his size and energy level; he has shown nothing but extreme patience with the kids!

Buddy requires a fully fenced yard, along with daily walks (he's currently being walked in the morning and at night; plus, lots of ball-chasing in the backyard). He loves to keep busy with a bone or toy and will cuddle up right next to you almost the moment you lay down. He is house trained and will also curl up in a crate (prefers the door open) or on a dog bed. As mentioned previously, he's also very trainable and listens immediately when told to get off a piece of furniture. He will need a home without cats or other small animals.

In a nutshell: This dog is quick to roll on his back for belly rubs and will no doubt provide his forever-home with constant reminders of what unconditional love feels like.

Buddy is up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and neutered. His adoption fee is $450.

More about this rescue

Forever Home Dog Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We receive dogs from owner surrenders and overcrowded shelters. All of the dogs are housed in private, loving foster homes or a kennel in the greater Seattle area. We assess their behaviors and health and help them relax during their transition to a forever home. The dogs remain in foster care or in our kenneling facility until they are adopted. All of the dogs are/or will be spayed or neutered, microchipped and are current on routine vaccinations.

Forever home dog rescue is not a shelter and thus you cannot see the dogs without an appointment.

We need foster homes! Thinking about adopting a dog, but not sure yet about which breed or if you're ready for the long-term commitment? Consider becoming a foster parent. A foster dog placement can be anywhere from two weeks to several months. We provide any dog supplies you may need and cover all necessary medical costs for your foster dog. You provide the love and attention and bring the dogs to adoption events at least twice per month.

Interested? Send us an email at fhdrwa@gmail.com and we'll send you a foster application. It's lots of fun and you will meet lots of dogs and other people who love dogs.
