My story

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

Available for Adoption: 10/12/2024 Applications need to be approved before a meet and greet will be set up for any Fetching Hearts Rescue dogs.

Meet Fozzie!!!

Fozzie is one sweet boy who came in to the rescue along with all his siblings. We named them after the Muppets. They are all just amazing, big, and loving.

Fozzie loves to hang out with his siblings and friends in the play yard. He sometimes will stay back and watch everybody play, he always is very social with them. They all love love chewing on bones and running after tennis balls. During the day they will take naps together in a group and then wake up and start all over again. Fozzie is one of the biggest boys in the group. He is super gentle but a big galute. We would recommend doing training with pups as this is the perfect time to train them with commands and how to be awesome!!! Fozzie is super smart and food driven. We take pups seriously as they cannot be left alone for longer periods of time during the day. We require socializing, fun time, napping, training and attention.

Apply for Fozzie today or one of his siblings. You will make many memories with this boy. He cannot wait to have a forever family to call his. Fozzie also would love a doggie friend too, but not required.

Unless otherwise indicated, all dogs adopted through Fetching Hearts have received the following before being available for adoption:

Thorough veterinary examination

All routine annual vaccinations, including Rabies, DHLPP, Bordatella (Kennel Cough), Heartworm Test, Fecal Test, Deworming, Microchip, Flea and Tick Prevention and Heartworm Prevention.

Spay/Neuter
All dogs are quarantined for two weeks outside of the shelter (puppies four weeks) to ensure they don't break with disease.

VETTING NOTE: Fetching Hearts Rescue completely vets our dogs thoroughly to the best of our knowledge based on communication with our Southern Vets. If anything is brought to our attention, we treat the dog. After adopting the dog, you will be responsible for following up with all vetting going forward.

HEARTWORM NOTE: Dogs who were treated for Heartworm can test positive up to 4-6 months after last treatment. All dogs are immediately put on Heartguard/Ivermectin following the treatment to kill the Heartworm larvae. All dogs should be re-tested after 5-6 months from the last Heartworm treatment.

More about this rescue

Fetching Hearts Rescue is a non-profit 501(c)(3), volunteer run rescue that is dedicated to saving dogs who have been abused, neglected or abandoned and finding loving, caring homes for them.

We rely on a network of foster families so that each dog that we pull into the safety of our rescue is placed in a foster home and is no longer confined to a life in a kennel.

We are committed to helping dogs of all ages, breeds and sizes by partnering with shelters and animal control services right here in Connecticut as well as with several high kill shelters in the South.

We do a full assessment of each dog's temperament and health to ensure that we are able to find the most suitable home for them. Every dog is fully vetted - meaning they are up to date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered, heartworm negative and micro chipped - before being adopted.

The ASPCA estimates that approximately 3.3 million dogs in the United States enter shelters each year, of which approximately 670,000 are euthanized*. Our goal is to advocate for and provide education about the need for spaying and neutering to eliminate what has become an epidemic of unwanted dogs.*
