Meet Fred – Your Future Adventure Buddy with a Side of Goofball!
Looking for a furry sidekick to join you on all your wild adventures? Meet Fred, the one-year-old Bulldog mix who`s ready to tackle life with energy, enthusiasm, and a whole lot of personality! Whether it’s a hike, a run, or just chasing squirrels (don’t worry, he never catches them), Fred is always up for a good time. He’s got more energy than a double shot of espresso and a sense of humor that will keep you smiling every day.
Fred is the ultimate go-getter—a lovable, bouncy ball of energy who’s ready to make every moment an adventure. But, like any great project, Fred’s got a few things to learn before he`s the perfect companion. If you enjoy working on basic training and have the patience to guide him, Fred is your perfect match. With a little structure and consistency, Fred will thrive and reward you with boundless affection and loyalty.
Training Needs & Requirements:
Fred is still young, and while he’s got plenty of heart, he needs a little direction in certain areas to help him become the well-behaved adventurer you’ll love. Here’s what you should know about Fred’s training needs:
Resource Guarding: Fred has a tendency to resource guard, which means he can become protective over food, toys, or certain areas. This is something that can be managed with the right training and management techniques. Positive reinforcement methods and consistent redirection will help Fred learn to share and trust that his possessions are safe. An experienced dog owner would be ideal for guiding him through this behavior and helping him build positive associations.
Basic Obedience Training: Fred is still a work in progress when it comes to basic commands and impulse control. He’s eager to please, but like most Bulldogs, he can be a bit stubborn at times. Regular training sessions using rewards-based methods (treats, praise, play) will help him master commands like sit, stay, come, and leave it. Fred will thrive in a home where training is part of the daily routine.
Exercise Needs: With his energetic personality, Fred needs plenty of physical and mental stimulation. He’s a great companion for hikes, runs, or long walks, and he loves to burn off steam. Regular exercise will keep Fred happy and healthy, and a tired Fred is a well-behaved Fred.
Adult-Only Home: Fred’s lively nature and need for structure mean he’s best suited for an adult-only home or one wi

We require potential adopters to fill out an pre-adoption application. If that application is approved, the dog/cat must be spayed/neutered before it leaves our shelter (if not already done). If it is a puppy under 4 months old, we allow it to go home with the adopters under a foster care agreement until it is old enough to be returned for spay/neuter. Kittens are allowed to leave before spay/neuter is done, but they must be done within a certain time frame.
Fees: Dogs/puppies range from $150-300, depending on if they came in already spayed/neutered or if we paid to have that done.
Cats range from $80 - $140, though we often have deals on older cats or cats that have been there a long time.
Kittens are $60 with $25 refunded once it has been spayed/neutered.
All adoptions include at least the first vaccination, deworming, de-fleaing, microchip ID, and 6 weeks of pet insurance.
