My story

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

Little Balto was found as a stray with his paw bandaged. even tho attempts were made to find his owner no one came.
He is overweight, friendly, good with other dogs. He is neutered and has had all shots. Walks well on lead. The wounds on his paw have been treated and he is now looking for his forever home. He is currently fostered in Bradenton area. Great with other dogs, he is not fond of overly exuberant dogs in his face and will bark at them. He is great with dogs that keep their space and good with cats too!!! Quiet boy that just wants to be by your side, great for taking short walks with!! His foot has healed but he is down on his pastern so walks very slowly. He has not had much exercise in his past life so needs to start slow and build up. He had been shaved by the shelter and his hair is growing back in. We suspect he is a sheltie and a mini aussie.

Additional adoption info

We require potential adopters to fill out an Adoption Application.When that is approved we can arrange for the prospective adopter to meet the dog they are interested in. We do require an adoption contract to be signed at time of adoption. We have a virtual home-check process (don't forget to submit photos of the exterior of your home!) Adoption fees range depending on the age of the dog. We do have dogs located at qualified fosters throughout the state and also out of state.

Go meet their pets

Since all rescue dogs live in foster homes, there is no single facility to meet pups.

You will need to contact Ewenity Farms HDH to make arrangements to meet the rescue dog after you have an approved app on file. Apps can be filled out at ewenityfarm.org

More about this rescue

We are a small, foster-based rescue organization located in Southwest Florida. Being small helps us give more one-on-one attention to individual dogs and their needs. Rescued dogs are kept in our homes and treated as our own. Herding dogs are unique. They are highly intelligent and require much of the owner’s attention. The dogs are evaluated, when they come into the rescue, for any temperament and health issues. Then they are given basic obedience, socialization and rehabilitation as it is necessary.

It is our sole purpose to find forever homes for these loving, wonderful dogs that have been discarded through no fault of their own. All adopted dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on shots, heartworm negative, micro-chipped, and on flea and heartworm preventative.
