The world can be a bit of a nerve wracking experience when you have spent your entire life in one house and not met any new people or seen any new things These babies are very nervous, soft words of encouragement are definitely needed, nobody tries to bite they are all just very nervous, a quiet house with no children would be best, and plenty of love and patience, they are not going to be the kind of babies that are wanting to go for walks, that may come in time but it will probably take a while to achieve that level of confidence, do you sound like a good fit?

Story
This sweet little pint of sunshine will brighten your darkest day! Meet Harley, she was an owner surrender to no fault of her own. The owner simply could not care for her any longer due to her health. So Harley came into our program and since has been fully vetted: spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and is heart worm negative.   Due to her small size, she would make a perfect pet for apartment or condo living. She is potty trained on pee pads. Loves to cuddle and snuggle to her heart's delight. She gives kisses freely and often. She is a very low shedder, easy to maintain her hygiene.   Currently, she is in Arkansas, but headed to New England to be fostered. This girl is so sweet that we feel she will be adopted soon. Will you be the lucky one?  ##2313818##

Please contact Sandra (sandralamb@comcast.net) for more information about this pet. Adoption Donation   $   699     Located:         MS     (Transportation costs included to the Northeast , plz ask for more details ) Age: Puppy 11-12 weeks as of 3/5/2025    *** As part of the adoption donation this pup will participate in FOA's spay/neuter program or other programs available through FOHA. All puppies will have age appropriate vaccinations.  All small Pups need to be adopted by by children old enough to understand how to be respectful and gentle in handling a small young pup. ***         If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application on our website   www.fohari.org and email my foster parent for more information:   friendsoha@yahoo.com Please verify the location and readiness of this dog with us.  Because we save lives from various locations through out the United States, some dogs may not be in New England yet, nor ready for immediate adoption.       Our adoption application can be found here: https://fohari.org/application/  Our Adoption Process:   Go to our website and select the animal you are interested in. ALL animals are in foster homes as we do NOT have a  shelter where you can visit. Some animals are in foster care in New England, and some are located in other states. If the initials following the animals name are a state, then that is the state where the animal is located. If initials are not a state, then those are the initials of the foster home outside of New England and you will not be able to meet the animal ahead of time. Complete our online application You will be contacted by phone or email by the foster parent  or a member of our adoption team and will have the opportunity to find out more about the animal, and ask any questions that you have to ensure the animal is a good fit for your household. If the animal is local, you can meet the animal, but you would not be able to take the dog home until you are approved to adopt.  From our end, we will check references and schedule a home visit.  If you live in an apartment, or a condo, we will need to verify permission to own the animal from your landlord or condo board. Please let your vet’s office and references know we will be contacting them. If your  references are positive, we will schedule a home visit by a volunteer. Please try to accommodate the home visit volunteer as most  have busy schedules. Delays in the visit will result in a delay in the adoption. Once you are approved, you will receive an e-mail with your  adoption contract attached. This e-mail will have details about pick up, the balance of the adoption fee that is owed, etc. Please email your signed & witnessed contract and pay your adoption fee in full, and for any animals located out of state, you will be contacted for details about transport to New England. Once you have paid your adoption fee in full and sent back your contract, you can make arrangement to pick up your animal from the foster home or from transport depending on where the animal is located. Please bring a harness, collar, ID tag and leash when you are picking up the dog unless otherwise instructed by the foster parent. Our extensive approval process is intended to ensure the best fit between our animals and adopters. Friends of Homeless Animals (FOHA) reserves the right to deny any adoption application with or without disclosure of cause. Your adoption fee helps to cover the cost of all age appropriate vetting and transportation. FOHARI.ORG makes no explicit or implicit guarantees in reference to the health, temperament and/or the breed of the animal. The animal is adopted ‘as is’, and the adopter assumes all responsibility for treatment of any and all existing conditions or any other conditions of physical or temperament changes that may occur. FOHARI.ORG will provide the animal with the basic vaccines, heart worm test and sterilization of dogs and cats before adoption if the age and current health of the animal permits. While FOHARI.ORG makes every effort to place only healthy animals, FOHARI.ORG cannot guarantee the health of any animal, and shall not be held responsible for any medical expenses that may be incurred. Rescuer will provide information received from the veterinarian exam, observations on the temperament of the animal and a best guess of the breed. Friends of Homeless Animals Inc.

Meet Prince Aladdin, a young, playful, and friendly dog. He's full of energy and has a zest for life that is contagious. His favorite activities include playing and exploring his surroundings. He's also crate trained, which means he's already accustomed to a structured routine. He's curious about cats, so he might be a great fit for a home that already has feline friends. Prince Aladdin is a smart boy and basic group training classes is recommended to help him learn commands, socialize with other humans and dogs, as well as build that fur-ever bond with you! He's not just a pet, he's a companion who will bring joy, laughter, and unconditional love to his new home. Adopting Prince Aladdin means gaining a loyal friend who will be by your side through thick and thin. An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see   HERE   for more information about this. To apply for this dog, fill out an adoption application on our website:   Adoption Application - SOS Animal Rescue League in Rhode Island (sosarl.org)   **Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 8, 2025, 10:51 am
