My story

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

*I'm located in Georgia but can be transported*

Name: Weebles

Breed: Vizsla Mix

Sex/Age/Weight: Male/estimate 10 months old/50lbs at the moment but still growing

Vetting: Up-to-date on vaccines, neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative and on preventatives

House trained/Crate Trained: No training yet, but I have had to stay in a big crate since I was found because of my medical needs. I do pretty good at not going to the bathroom inside of the cage, with a few little accidents.

Dogs/Cats/Children: Has not been tested with cats or children, but can be tested upon request. Weebles has had very controlled interactions with other dogs mostly because of his injuries, so I don’t want to mess up his current PT progress. He seems very interested in playing with other dogs though.

Energy Level: Very high- I am a super-active dog who needs a high-energy owner

Before FAR/My History: I was found 5/25/2024 on the side of a road next to an orchard lying beside a laundry basket with a tarp. My humans don’t know if someone dumped me but it looks that way. I had been hit by a car some months earlier and my legs didn’t work right. I was very skinny and hungry. I had femoral head and neck ostectomy (FHO surgery) on 6/20/2024 on my back right leg to fix all the problems caused by the accident and the subsequent medical neglect. I am in rehab right now for my hip. Things are going well, but on 8/11/2024 I re-broke my elbow. Apparently I had broken it in the original incident but it had healed over before I was found and had surgery. With this minor setback, I will have to stay on cage rest for a bit longer while my leg and elbow recover, but I am looking forward to running injury-free soon.

Training Status/Commands I know: Sit and Touch the open hand to get a treat/food instead of leaping for the food

Working on: Everything- I am trying to learn a lot while I do rehab, but some exercises will have to wait until after treatment. I have puppy energy, but I am working on channeling it into being a good dog.

Things I like: Playtime! Any interaction is playtime to me. I am always ready to run and explore which I can’t do much of because of my leg, but once I am healed – lookout! I definitely still have puppy energy, but I am an active breed. I love chew toys and treats and if I can sit still long enough, I love belly scratches.

Things I don’t like: I don’t like to be left out. It is hard to watch the other dogs run when you’re on the injured list, but I really like going on walks with others. If you are doing something, I want to be right there doing it with you. I need constant interaction and stimulation so that I don’t get bored.

Things that make my humans happy: My happiness even though I’ve been through so much. I go to my doctor appointments with the same attitude that I go to get a pup cup, just happy to see everyone and everything. My name is Weebles because I wobble but I don’t fall down, physically or figuratively. I am always a happy pup.

Ideal Family/Home: Right now I am still a mystery. I haven’t gotten to play with other dogs or people other than my humans because of my surgery restrictions, but soon I will start interacting with the other fosters and we will see my true personality shine.

If you are interested in giving Weebles a forever home, please visit the link below to fill out an application! http://fureverafterrescue.org/adoption-application.html It is best to submit an application through a computer. We have experienced some problems when applications have been submitted using a mobile device. *When you submit the application, you are not obligated to adopt however it does reserve for you the opportunity to adopt that particular animal. We review them on a first come first served basis. If your application is approved, we will contact you and allow you the opportunity to adopt. If you choose not to adopt, we will contact the next approved applicant. If you have any questions or difficulties, please contact us and we will be glad to help!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process starts with the potential adopter filling out an adoption application. In the application, you can specify a particular dog in which you are interested, or let us know what type of pet in which you are looking, so we can find the perfect animal to fit your family and your needs. Once the application is received, a board member will review the application, and make contact with the potential adopter within 48 hours. This initial contact may include further questions/more information, or may include scheduling a meet and greet for you to meet the animal in which you are interested! Once the application is approved or the meet and greet goes well, then the adoption can be finalized. To finalize the adoption, an adoption agreement must be completed, the adoption fee paid (we accept cash, paypal, or credit/debit card), and then the potential adopter can take their new family member home with them or schedule pick up of their furry family member! The adoption fee varies based on the dog or puppy you are interested in. Some of the adoption fees have been listed on the individual dog's description but if you do not see one then please reach out and we would be happy to talk to you about it! If you are interested in any of our animals, please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have!!

Go meet their pets

We hold adoption events some Saturdays at various locations around middle GA from 11 am-3 pm. Check our Facebook page for updates on Events! We are also able to arrange meet and greets for local adopters!

More about this rescue

Furever After Rescue, a 501(c)(3) organization, is a no-kill, foster-based rescue devoted to finding homes for animals needing a loving home. Most of our animals come from local, high-kill shelters with some occasionally coming from bad situations and owner surrender. Our animals are immediately placed in foster homes where they learn love and are taught how to live in a home environment. All of our animals are up-to-date on their age-appropriate vetting needs and are tested for personality traits as best as possible. We have many wonderful pets looking for forever homes!
