Story
I`m Daya, I came to HSMC as a stray. I was really scared and unsure of things, I didn`t understand why I was coming here and not going back home. Staff assured me it was okay and they would try to find my home. A lot of time went by, I kept waiting and my family never showed up. In the meantime, staff kept trying to make friends with me and I began to trust them. I`ve realized my family isn`t coming for me, so here I am, ready to find a new family to love me. I am an energetic and happy girl. I love my people once I get comfortable with them. I think I would prefer to be the only dog in the home. I might take some time to warm up, but I think in time we can become the best of friends.

Story
Junie here, where are my lab lovers? I will make sure to bathe you in my affection. If you don't like being licked, I'm not the dog for you. I will be the best snuggling, walking, and retrieving girl a person can have. My foster mom has told me about having my very own family that will adore me and love me as much as I love them. Can that dream really come true? You may have already heard my story about being found with Johnny and how it is believed that we were dumped. We waited in the same area for a week for our people to return, but that didn't happen. We were getting thin and really scared. We needed to be trapped so we could get the help we needed. After being trapped, things really started to look up.  I don't let my foster mom out of my sight for very long. She gives the best hugs and she scratches, feeds me, plays with me, and gives me those yummy treats.  I love being next to her.  All she has to do is call my name and I come running. She has found I'm a little shy around kids so older respectful kids would be best for me.   I really want to learn to live inside a home and a few basic obedience commands will be helpful.  Are you willing to help me with that? I am kennel trained and will go in when told.  It would be ideal for me to have a kennel in my new home so I can go chill when needed.   I'm a pretty easy going gal that is up for new adventures and I'm excited to see what the future holds. With that said, I really love Johnny, but I'm ready for us to go our separate ways and start fresh.   Are you ready to love me and see what an amazing dog I am? You can apply for me at: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt Name: Junie D.O.B: Unsure, but vet will give an estimate at upcoming appointment  Breed: Lab mix Sex: Female  Weight: 61 lbs Altered: Yes Adoption: 400 Good with Cats: I'm not sure yet.  Good with Dogs: Yes, I enjoy other dogs. I did growl while I had a high value treat, but corrected easily.  Good with Kids: Probably older, respectful kids. Special Requirements: None.  *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member. It can also help set up a relationship with greater odds of success integrating your new pet into your family. Anyone who provides proof of completed positive reinforcement training will receive a 100 dollar refund from Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc!

Story
Johnny here and ready to find a home where I can learn to be the bestest boy ever. I'm almost there, but I need some obedience training and work on my indoor manners.   I was found with Junie and it is believed that we were dumped. We waited in the same spot for a week for our people to return, but that didn't happen. We were getting thin and were really scared. We needed to be trapped so we could get the help we needed. After being trapped, things really started to look up.   Our Foster Mom is learning a little more about us each day. She said she has learned that I like other dogs and that I love to play.  I really enjoy finding things to fetch even if they are not my toys and exploring the yard.  That's where the training and patience comes in.  I do love to be by my people, butt scratches and walks.  A large yard for me to gallop around would be fantastic along with a lot of stuffed and chew toys.  Once I'm familiar with my boundaries, I'm good off leash. Typically, I come running when called.   My Foster Mom said I'm kennel trained and I just walk in when told to " kennel up".  She is also saying that when I'm adopted, you should plan to use a kennel for me until I can be trusted. I guess I like to chew things up and make a mess. Apparently, I'm a big boy, but act like a puppy.   I know Junie and I were found together, but I'm cool if we don't live together forever. I think my time with her has been great, but I feel it's time to find a home where they will give me a lot of love and attention.   Are you the family I'll spend the rest of my life with? You can apply for me at: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt Name: Johnny D.O.B: Unsure, but vet will give an estimate at upcoming appointment  Breed: Lab mix Sex: Male Weight: 73 lbs Altered: Yes Adoption: 400 Good with Cats: I'm not sure yet.  Good with Dogs: Yes, I enjoy other dogs.  Good with Kids: Probably older, respectful kids.

Story
Heyyyya! My name is Reginald, but my friends call me Reggie for short. I’m a cute lil puppy, and I need lots of love and attention!  My favorite thing to practice is my hump move, but my foster home is showing me that’s not polite for pups, only defensive lines. Soooo now I’m changing focus and working hard at potty training, leash walking, and socializing. But I’m still a little shy, as many puppies can be. I’m great in my kennel. Even if I’m awake in there and you’re still sleeping, I happily chomp on my toys until you wake up or I need to go out.  Because I’m still a youngster, I need an exceptionally responsible forever home that is willing to give me lots of patience, love, positive training, and socialization to help me continue to develop into the best grown dog I can be!!!  If you’ll provide all that and if you’re looking for a puppy like me to grow up with you/your family, apply for me (Reginald) now! I can’t wait to meet you!  You can apply for me at: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt Name: Reginald D.O.B: 6/1/24 Breed: Lab/Heeler mix Sex: Male Weight: 17 lbs Altered: No *Neuter contract Adoption: 450 + 100 contract Good with Cats: I'm just a puppy, so could probably get used to them Good with Dogs: Yes, I love other dogs! Good with Kids: I'm just a puppy, so most likely! Special Requirements: None.  *Due to their age, each puppy will be adopted with a Spay/Neuter contract. Puppies will require a $100 deposit that will be returned upon proof of Spay/Neuter. *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member. It can also help set up a relationship with greater odds of success integrating your new pet into your family. Anyone who provides proof of completed positive reinforcement training will receive a 100 dollar refund from Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc! If you have questions or are wondering if the class you want to take qualifies please reach out! ♥ **This dog was rescued from a breeding situation. Every dog is different, but here is some information on what bringing a breeder dog into your home can be like and some supports they may need to transition into their new life! While it can be challenging at first, it is incredibly rewarding to see these dogs grow and come out of their shells.

T-T-T-T-TUNDRAAAAAAA here! I’m still pretty new to the world, and even newer to having a house and a (foster) family of my own — and let me tell ya, it’s pretty great so far! I get SO much attention, snuggles and love along with lots of treats   I got to go for my first walk, which was so much fun, even with that weird rope attached to me that my mama holds!! I’m still a little shy around new places, things and people but I am super curious so I usually warm up pretty quickly. My foster mama says my curiosity gets the best of me sometimes, but with a little re-direction I do pretty well! If you’re looking for a buddy to watch the football game or go on adventures with, I’ll hop right along with ya You can apply for me at: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt Name: Tundra D.O.B: 6/1/24 Breed: Lab/Heeler mix Sex: Male Weight: 15 lbs Altered: No *Neuter contract Adoption: 450 + 100 contract Good with Cats: I'm just a puppy, so could probably get used to them Good with Dogs: Yes, I love other dogs!

Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org Wrangler - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! Hello everyone, my name is Wrangler and I'm here looking for a family, a home...one I can say is all mine... again!! You see, I had a happy loving home but my Daddy had to go live at another home, just like me now. But no worries, I'm a pretty darn happy boy that has a special talent of wrangling myself right in the heart, YOUR heart?!! I'm around 2 years old and just a happy go lucky pup that is all about having fun with whatever we're doing! I am an active fella that would do great with an active family. You want to go for a long walk, I'll go get my leash. You want to go for an action packed adventure, look out, I'm already in the car waiting... for you!! I Know some basic commands like - sit, leave it and no. I also love playing fetch for as long as you're willing (oh those 'chuck it' sticks are just the cats meow, oops, the dogs bark!). And anything that has to do with water, I'm all in (literally)!! Swimming in the river, splashing in a creek or chasing the water from the garden hose, I love it all, your typical lab at its finest!! I come in at about 93lbs, but that's 93lbs of pure loving bliss, 93lbs of these adoring puppy dog eyes that will turn you to a pile of goo and 93lbs of a heartbeat at your feet!! I do great with people and other pups although it's unsure if I have ever met any of those creatures y'all call a cat yet. I would probably do better in a home without small kiddos just purely cuz of my size. With my sweet happy go lucky attitude on life, I'd make a pawsome family addition, could that be with YOUR family?!! Hurry and fill out my adoption application, it can be found at haydudeequine.org

Story
My name is Abe but with a smirk like this you just might want to call me Elvis. I was out on my own and trying to find my place in this world when a nice lady found me and brought me to the shelter. Sometimes I guess you don`t really realize you`re lost until you`re found. Turns out coming to the shelter was the best thing that`s ever happened to me! I have a roof over my head, food in my tummy and belly rubs on the daily. I`ve learned about this thing called adoption where a human takes you to their house and makes you a part of the family, like forever. When you`re adopted you don`t have to wonder where you`ll sleep at night or when your next meal will be. It`s almost too good to be true- but I`m certain I want to get adopted!
