Story
Ella the hippo! This chonky girl knows no strangers, she loves everyone she meets! Ella has spent the past few months in foster care after ending up in an overcrowded shelter where she was almost euthanized for space. Ella is middle aged, gets along well with other dogs, and is super sweet with every person she meets. Ella would benefit from a family that takes her for walks, and has a good amount of chill time at home. She's a go-with-the-flow type girl. Ella is with our rescue partner in Laredo, Texas, and will be transported to Idaho, Washington, Oregon, or Montana when she has a home waiting. There are no extra fees added. You can see an adorable video of Ella on her Petfinder profile. Spay, microchip, and current vaccines all included in her adoption fee.

Story
Sweet Fabiola! This girl is happy now, but she has lived a horrible, horrible life up until recently. According to locals, Fabiola lived outside of an abandoned store next to the highway on a border town in South Texas. She had litter after litter, sadly only very few survived due to being close to the road, and getting sick. Fabiola kept a positive attitude and always welcomed other street dogs, as well as people that would come to feed her and her remaining babies. Since moving to foster care Fabiola is LOVING life. She loves her girly harness, going for car rides, and especially loves the kids and other dogs in the home. She loves being the spoiled baby now. Fabiola really enjoys toys as well and gladly shares them with her doggy friends. Fabiola is going through heartworm treatment, which is covered by the rescue. It isn't contagious and is overall an easy treatment. She is still with her foster family in South Texas, but can come to Boise when she has adoption interest. Spay, microchip, heartworm treatment, current vaccines, and transport to Idaho all included in her adoption fee. Please start with the adoption application: freedomboundhounds.com/adopt

Story
Adoptable within one hour of Boise. Meet Max! Max is the definition of gentle giant. At 110 lbs, he may take up a lot of space, but he’ll always leave plenty of room in your heart. A suspected mix of Leonberger and St. Bernard, he has the perfect balance of laid-back vibes and youthful energy. While he’s big in size, he’s got a heart that's even bigger. Max is extremely friendly with other dogs and is more likely to give you a big, happy tail wag than anything else. He’s a chill boy who enjoys lounging around, but he’s also ready for adventures when you are. Whether it’s a leisurely walk or playtime with a furry friend, Max is up for it all! Max is looking for a family who will appreciate his calm demeanor, gentle nature, and willingness to be a great companion. He’ll make a wonderful addition to any home, especially one with other dogs or active individuals who want a loyal buddy to hang out with. Neuter, current vaccines, and microchip all included in his adoption fee: freedomboundhounds.com/adopt
