Story
I am looking for a good home for my sweet dog Bear. I got him over a year ago with my partner. Unfortunately, this person is no longer in my life and left me with this sweet dog. I am unable to give him the attention he deserves or afford him at this time. He is a good boy and LOVES fetch. He will play fetch for hours. He has a lot of energy so loves to play outside and run around. He is crate trained. Can go long stretches without needing to be let out for those people that work full time. Truly a sweet boy that just needs some love and attention. I can provide the crate I currently have for him, his dog food container, and his chuck-it. He does like to chew things if he has pent up energy so I would definitely advise crating him if you leave him alone for an extended period of time.

Story
Blu is a large 3.5 year old boy thats filled with love. He has loves all people, dogs, and cats. When first meeting another dog he sometimes tries to hump which can lead to a scuffle, however once the initial meeting is done hes best friends. We adopted Blu when he was a puppy and I was still in the Navy. I recently finished up my contract with the Navy and an adult job here in New Jersey, which unfortunately means much longer hours than Blu has been used to. Unfortunately, and it breaks my heart, he just hasnt adjusted well to the new schedule. Id like to rehome him to a new home where his new family can give him all the time and care he needs.

Story
Hello, my name is Barbara Phone number 410-920-3818. Henry is almost 2 years old. He is well cared for very healthy. All of his shots are up current. The only meds he is on is simparica trio. His last rabies shot was January 30, 2024. He is due again January 30, 2027. He is very active and loves to chew everything. He is OK with older children, but aggressive with young children. We now have several younger children. And are expecting another great grandchild. He needs a lot of room to run and play. Please reach out and let me know if you can help with this thank you and have a blessed day.November 5, 2024, 3:21 pm

Please contact Darlene at 302-312-5129 (fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.  This dog is located in Newark, DE. Visit us on the web at https://fur-everpaws.com/fur-ever-paws-adoption-application/ to submit an application. Please contact the foster directly at 302-312-5129 (text or call) or via email at fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com Fur Ever Paws Dog Rescue is a small no kill rescue operating in the Delaware/Maryland area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit that rescues and places homeless, neglected or abused dogs from high-kill shelters in the south into loving, responsible committed and permanent homes. We feel our comprehensive adoption process which includes not only taking the time to match the dog to the prospective new owner but helping to educate that owner in responsible dog care, allows us to find the best homes for our little buddies and the best companions for you! Each week we use USDA certified transports to bring dogs from high-kill shelters in the south to our fosters where they all receive the appropriate medical care and are placed in nurturing loving homes while they await placement in their forever homes. Interested in one of our dogs? Great! Now that you've seen them here you'll need to go to our website where you'll find our list of adoptable dogs (updated every week). Then, it's just a simple process of finding a dog you're interested in and filling out an application on our site. Once we receive your application, whoever is fostering that particular dog will contact you and do a short over the phone interview to complete your application process. If everything works out, they will set an appointment with you so come out and "visit" with the dog you're interested in (we want to make sure that not only are you a good fit for the dog but that the dog will fit with you). If everything works out, you'll be able to take rover (or spot, or jax) home with you that very day. A couple of things you should know: We can't hold dogs over the phone or via email. Adoption fees vary based on breed. All of our dogs have been vet checked and dewormed (if possible due to age, additional treatment may be needed). We provide a spay or neuter voucher to all of our adopters. &#226&#128&#139 December 16, 2024, 6:51 am
