My story

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

Available for Adoption: Now- Applications need to be approved before a meet and greet will be set up for any Fetching Hearts Rescue dogs.

Here is a hopeful, heartwarming, and playful bio for Bear, the adoptable young male dog: Bear is a funny, cute, and loyal pup looking for his forever home. He is smart and playful, and will make a great companion for those looking for an affectionate and fun-loving best friend. He is good with other dogs, which makes him an easy fit for families who already have pets. He loves to run around in a fenced yard and explore, but also knows how to take a break and snuggle up with his human friends. He can be a bit curious and will sniff around new things, but he is gentle and not at all aggressive. He's young, so he has energy and is always up for an adventure - just ask him to join you on your next walk or playdate! He's excited to meet his forever family and begin his new life with them, full of love, cuddles, and fun. Oh one last thing, please make sure to have lots of toys/bones for Bingo. He absolutely loves them!!! Fetching Hearts Rescue requires proof of training when you adopt a pup from us. Puppies are lots of work and need socializing, and training to become amazing family members.

Don't miss out on this handsome hunk!!! Bear wants to build memories with his forever family. If you want to love Bear forever, he's ready for you.

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.*
