Story
At first glance, Jax may seem a little nervous and even a bit shy, but spend a little time with this handsome guy, and you'll discover a loyal companion who will stick by your side through thick and thin. Jax is a smart boy who knows his surroundings and the people around him. He needs time and space to feel comfortable and confident in a new environment, but once he feels safe, his affectionate side emerges, and he'll be your best friend. He absolutely loves other dogs and would do amazing in a house with another furry friend. Watching other dogs teaches him so much, which will help the desensitization process of the home environment immensely. He will be dragging a leash until you can interact with him comfortably and will need a crate to keep a structured schedule. Once he settles in, though, he loves to lounge in the sun and cuddle at your feet! With his smarts, loyalty, and adorable nervousness, Jax will melt your heart and fill your home with love. If you can give Jax the love and care he needs, please meet him today! Give him a chance, and you will not regret it!

Story
Meet Henri! 12-year-old Henri was with his mom for over 11 years, and together, they went through a lot of changes. He first lived with his mom in a house with a yard, then in an assisted living apartment, and lastly, in a memory care facility. After Henri's mom became unable to care for him, he was entrusted to us through the Final Wish Program on July 25th. Fortunately, shortly after Henri arrived at FFF, he was chosen for a Frosted Fling that turned into a Foster home. We have learned so much about him and what he is like in a home environment! His Foster Mom reports: "Henri is a loving and gentle dog who adores attention. He approaches people with ease and is always eager to be petted. He loves cuddle time! Henri is in great health and moves well, whether walking or running. He knows basic commands like "sit" and "stay," and he's accustomed to sleeping in his own fenced area as part of his bedtime routine. He has a good appetite, with a particular fondness for apples and watermelon. Henri is house-trained and uses our doggie door with ease. Henri enjoys about two walks a day and loves playing catch, though he doesn't always fetch the toys or balls. Henri gets a burst of energy (zoomies) at least once a day, usually in the morning. He would thrive in a family with children who can match his energy, but he's also content in a quieter home where he can nap peacefully. Henri doesn't seem to suffer from separation anxiety but would be happiest in a home with someone who works from home or is retired. Henri's only goal is to shower you with love, stay close by, and enjoy plenty of naps!!" If sweet Henri sounds like a fit for your family, please email adopt@frostedfacesfoundation.org to schedule a time to meet him.

Story
Meet Wetzels Pretzels! Wetzels Pretzels entered the San Diego Humane Society as a stray. When she wasn't claimed, we scooped her up on October 29th to become a Frosted Face. She is about 12 years old, weighs 12 lbs., and is a sweet little granny. While at the shelter, Wetzels Pretzels had hernia repair surgery and a dental that included the extraction of 9 teeth. She is feeling so much better after having those medical issues addressed and is ready for her new life! Wetzels Pretzels went on a two-week Frosted Fling, so we could learn what she is like in a home. Her Fling Mom shares: "Wetzels Pretzels (or Zelly as I call her) is super sweet, very mellow, and doesn't bark much. She loves attention, gets cold easily but enjoys having a sweater on and will burrow under a blanket at night. Zelly enjoys laying in the sun and loves to eat. She walks well on a leash, and she also enjoys wandering the yard. Zelly does fine when I leave the house. She's been easy to care for, and is ready to find her forever family." Please stop by any day of the week between 10AM and 3PM to meet this special girl. We look forward to your visit!
