This awesome boy was found running loose in Tennessee. He was brought to the shelter where nobody ever came to claim him. Fetching hard stepped up to help this boy as he is so handsome and deserves his forever home.
Swayze loves to run around in his fenced-in yard at his Foster's house. He will play ball with you and sometimes bring it back to you but not always lol! He's still learning. Swayze also loves to run around with his friends and wrestle. Swayze is one happy boy who loves to meet his friends and to give his humans lots of love. Swayze would love an active family where he could go on hikes and explore with them, but also be able to cuddle up in the evening by the fire. He will ask that you buy him a nice little hoodie so he can stay warm in the cold. Swayze is working on his leash walking but overall does fairly well. He might need some training classes on it when he gets to his forever family. We know that he will accomplish it in time. This guy is very smart and food motivated.
If you want Swayze to join your family forever, apply today! He has been waiting his turn for a little bit of time now and cannot wait. Give you tons of love and happiness each day. Be prepared to be greeted each day with a smile and wiggle butt.

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.*
