Story
Rich is a super friendly, easy-going guy who we believe to be about 3 years old. He loves all types of toys, but chew toys are definitely his favorite! Rich enjoys sunbathing and to his foster mom's dismay, rolling in dirt. He's out of the destructive puppy phase and great on walks - no pulling or tugging! Rich is crate trained and doesnt have accidents in the house. Rich is currently fostered with one other male dog and has done well with most other dogs at events and meets. He can easily be tested with cats, upon request. Additionally, we know Rich does well with kids. Rich has started professional dog training while in foster care, and his adopters will have the opportunity to continue his training to set him up for success. Rich has completed his vet care and is ready to go to his forever home as soon as he finds his humans! His adoption fee is FULLY SPONSORED ($0). If you're interested in adopting, please submit an application at savedbyfate.org and we'll be in touch ASAP! A meet with any approved applicant's current pets and entire family will be required prior to starting the 2-week adoption trial period.   Please visit our website savedbyfate.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story
"Hi there, Im Leo! I live up to my name by being super loyal to my people. I enjoy just about everything, but I sometimes get scared of new things Im not familiar with. I also am a little shy when it comes to meeting new people. But I warm up within minutes and can easily be won over if you let me approach you first. Treats help of course. Thanks to my awesome foster mom/ professional dog trainer, Im thriving at meeting new people and going all over the place to get the right exposure to become more confident. My foster mom describes me as goofy and sweet. I love to let loose around the backyard to do some zoomies. But I equally enjoy sleeping a lot inside on a dog bed. My foster mom has taught me all kinds of commands and basic obedience. I went through extensive training and I come fully on and off leash trained. I know: heel, sit, sit-stay, down, down-stay, come (from 50 feet away), spot command, and boundaries. Boundaries include in and out of a kennel, in and out of the door with auto sit on both sides and how to ride nicely in the car and when its appropriate to jump out of the car. I dont pull on the leash and can be walked by ANYONE! Im crate trained and potty trained too. On top of that, I get along with most dogs with proper introductions. I only get nervous if the other dog growls or barks at me first. But Id love a good playmate around my size. The only thing that my mom has to be aware of is I dont like to share my bones or food with other dogs. So its really important at I eat in my crate and am left alone to chew on my own bone. I have never showed any aggression towards humans over food or toys. I first was rescued by SBF in July of 2023. I was around 6 months old at the time and was found as a stray with my sister. We both had severe mange, which left us both bald and itchy. We started to get better and heal. My sister quickly got adopted. I now have all my hair back and Im super healthy. Im just looking for a family to call my own. If you think you are the right person/people for me, I hope you apply to adopt me before I get any older. I look forward to spending the rest of my life being your best friend!" Leo has completed his vet care and is ready to go to his forever home. His adoption fee has been fully sponsored ($0)!

Story
Billie is a sweet girl on the hunt for a forever family. She has a GORGEOUS blue/brindle coat and STUNNING yellow/green eyes - photos dont do her justice! You just need to meet her in person. What weve learned about Billie so far is that shes fairly independent, a fast learner, sleeps comfortably on car rides, and never goes anywhere without her favorite rainbow unicorn stuffie! In her current foster home, shes proven to be crate trained and housebroken. Currently, shes working diligently on leash manners. Billie seems to do well with all other dogs (big and small), cats, and humans as young as 4 years old. Billie has completed her vet care and can join her forever family as soon as they find her. Her adoption fee has been waived ($0)! If you're interested in adopting, please submit an application at savedbyfate.org and we'll be in touch ASAP.

Story
If you are looking for the ultimate best friend, Mac is your boy! His life was pretty rough until he joined Saved By Fate Dog Rescue. He came in as shy guy not knowing where else his life would lead him. Since being in SBF care, he has gained weight, grown fur back after coming to us nearly hairless due to severe skin issues, and can now see the world clearly through his big beautiful eyes after recently having eye surgery. He runs, plays, and is learning to be a dog, a pack/family member, and best friend. Once he feels comfortable and learns he can trust, he will follow you from room to room to be with you at all times. Outside during walks and playtime, he doesn't go far without stopping and looking for you and if you fall behind, he trots back to you to keep up! Mac loves schedules and consistency. He flourishes on structure. He is crate trained and house broken. He loves snuggle time on the couch and when its bedtime, he curls up on his bed and will sleep all night. When he wakes, he quietly walks over to check on you and if youre still asleep, he goes back to bed. Mackie is truly the perfect walking, snuggling, chilling out kind of guy! Mac does well around other dogs, indoor and outdoor cats, chickens, and horses. We think hed best in a home with at least one other playful dog. Mac has completed his vet care, and his adoption fee is $250. If you're interested in adopting, please submit an application at savedbyfate.org and we'll be in touch ASAP! A meet with any approved applicant's current pets and entire family will be required prior to starting the 2-week adoption trial period.

Bruno is a good boy who is looking for a forever home. This pittie/boxer mix is great with his foster fur siblings but has a soft spot for the human kiddos!

Story
Winter is about 2 years old and a pittie mix. She was pulled from KRRAS with her litter of pups. She’s did her momma job beautifully but now she’s focused on herself. She’s already been vaccinated and spayed, so no more mommin’ for Winter. She is very loving and playful. She loves running around the yard playing with toys and just being silly. Winter loves to have people petting her and love to give kisses. She is house trained, knows sit and shake. Winter is indifferent to cats and has done well with submissive males. We, of course, do intros with potential adopter family pets to make sure everyone gets along, so don’t let that stop you from being interested in this girl. Her adoption fee is $200.

Story
I got Flo from a shelter in Garrard county in 2017, she is about 6 or 7 years old spayed with NO medical conditions. She is a sweetheart and LOVES cuddling and being around people. She is house trained, loves going for walks, and doesn't chew or mess in the house (unless she's sick of course or left alone too long) Unfortunately, she is highly dog aggressive and has been involved in numerous fights with my other two dogs. She needs to be in a single-dog home, and should not be around other dogs. Her new owner should be experienced in handling bully breeds or the like. If you are interested in adopting Flo, please reach out and lets talk more. She would be a great addition to anyones home, just no other doggos!! :)

Story
Canyon is the perfect companion. This guy has been an absolute joy while in foster. He has been easy going and has thrived on consistency and routine. Canyon has been working on basic commands like “Sit, stay, down, and get in your crate”. Like all puppies, Canyon would do well with a family who would help him to continue the development of these commands daily. Canyon does amazing in his crate. He sleeps through the night in his crate and if he whines it’s only for a minute or two. Canyon is still working on potty training due to being a puppy and will need continued consistency in mastering that but staying in a routine has helped him with going outside. Canyon has been in a household without cats and children. So proper introduction is needed. He has been in foster with 2 older dogs but seems a bit timid around the large dogs next door. The sweetest part about Canyon is how he loves to snuggle before bedtime or nap time. When he gets tired he wants to crawl up in your lap to cuddle before going into his crate. Once you snuggle him you’ll be smitten by him! Interested in adopting? Here is the link to the application. https://pdf.ac/5tf0Fq
