This sweet girl was found with her head stuck in a fence and she had multiple wounds. An amazing volunteer took her in and started treatments for her wounds. We estimate Darla was born in late October. We have no idea what happened to her but we know her future is bright. She is sweet, funny and playful. We are only guessing at the breed mix because of her ears. That may change as time goes on. She will be finished with her vetting and ready to go to her forever home in early to mid January. Let’s help her have the best life. If you are interested in adopting please apply at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FFRR/Dog You can also visit our website at funnyfarmpets.org where you can read all about our TN based rescue and how the adoption and transport process works and get all the answers to your questions.

Meet Gage, the resilient pup with a heart as big as his will to wag his tail! Gage hails from Memphis, TN, where he sadly endured a close-range gunshot wound to his back. Despite his past, Gage remains loving towards people, offering tail wags as a sign of his affection. Now in NJ after being discharged from the hospital, Gage is a friendly, energetic fellow in need of a secure, fenced-in yard where he can frolic and play.

Azul's Holiday Wish List Azul was one of those New York City Street kids, just a year-old pup when he was saved by Husky House. Azul is very smart and picks his humans to love. He is a large, handsome boy with a strong personality. He will need an experienced owner who is patient and will provide him with the training he needs to be the best he can be. Azul would do best in an adult home (no children). Previous large dog experience a must to be considered for adoption. Please no homes with cats or small animals. So, if you are that special someone that will be picked by Azul to love, if you think that you understand a guy who had to live out on the streets and is more cautious until he trusts you, then please apply to adopt Azul at www.huskyhouse.orgDecember 10, 2024, 5:28 pm
