Fozzie

Foster Home Notes: Fozzie is a sweet little boy who just loves to play and be loved of course! He loves playing in the yard, snuggling, and being the center of attention (who doesn't). Fozzie was born under a old house and lived there with his mother until we saved him a month ago. His mother and other puppies had already been captured but they couldn't get him so they left him behind. He was just scared to death of people chasing him. Because of his start in life, he is still a little weary of humans and can still tinkle a little when approached or picked up but we hope he will overcome this with lots of love.

Fozzie needs a home with parents that are extra special gentle, who won't yell at him, and don't have a lot of chaos around. He is good with small kids but afraid of them when they get loud so a home without kids would be best. He needs a home with a tall fenced yard b/c he he can climb and laughs in the face of a baby gate! He also needs another dog to follow around. We find that dogs that are timid of people and have tough starts like Fozzie, do best in a home with another dog.

Lola

Foster Home Notes: Lola is a smart, happy go lucky, playful girl. She is only 4 years old, has a little gray running through her face too but she has the spirit of a puppy! I took her to a friends house today and she was in heaven. So much to see, do and WOW a creek, which she jumped them ran though! LOL At home, Lola is a doll baby. She spends most of her time laying on her bed in her crate (door open). She likes the security of her crate and she can chew on her toys or eat her food in peace away from my other dogs too. I call her my little hoarder b/c she will take every toys she can find and hide it in her crate under her blanket. It is like a treasure chest for the dogs when you pull her blanket out. LOL When I sit down, she comes up and puts her head in my lap and looks at me with her golden eyes. You can certainly see her soul through those eyes. She loves to go for walks and hikes in the woods. She also loves to go to the lake and explore. Lola would make a great family pet or a companion for someone who just wants to spoil her.

Lola needs a very secure fenced yard. Electric fences are NOT acceptable. She would do best in a home with another dog.

Abigail

Foster Home Notes: Abigail sits, shakes and loves belly rubs. She loves to go for walks but is strong when she decides to go her own way. She is great with all my dogs and my many cats and just wants to be near me most of the time. She is a love bug but not in a bothersome way. She is smart and sweet and loves to lay her head on my lap. When we go for car rides, she wants to be in the passenger seat but I just tell her to get back and she jumps in the back. She will let out a small little bark when she needs something like to go outside or water or food. She would make a great dog for a family or just the single person who wants someone to spoil. Abigail needs a tall fence or leash walking. She will find a way out of a short fence.

URGENT FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED - Abigail's mother is losing her home in a month and has to find placement for many of her animals so she can find somewhere to rent.

Delilah

Foster Home Notes: Delilah is a great girl who spends most of her day snoozing in her bed but if she hears her squeaky toys or a treat bag, she is at your side before you know it. She will come running from a mile away if she hears that toy squeak! She loves to bask in the sun but only if she can get back in the house. So if I close the door or the dog door, she is not happy and wants back in. If I leave it open, she is happy. She doesn't like to be outside for long and prefers to be indoors where she is comfortable and spoiled. If you leave her outside for long periods, she will dig out. Delilah loves to go for walks and has never met a stranger. She is great at the dog park but just prefers to sniff around and not be bothered by the other dogs. At home, I have a tough time keeping Delilah off the sofa where she prefers to lounge and await her belly rubs but she is a smart girl and listens well. . She needs a home alone or with another large dog which she does great with. Please don't let her age deter you...she is a playful love bug who really needs a place to live. At her current foster home, she is very overwhelmed and stays in her open crate allot hiding from the youngsters.

Patrick

Foster Home Notes: Patrick is a very sweet boy with a funny personality. He is all quiet and shy alot of the time but if I sit on the floor, he will come roll around very happy, smiling and rubbing against me. He loves going on his walks or lounging around the house. He is very smart but nervous about learning new things. It just takes him a few days to get adjusted. He currently lives with several cats and is gine with them. He has one other dog which he loves to buddy around with. Patrick is more interested in his person. He loves his foster dad but that took a few weeks. He would snuggle up with him but still bark at him when he walked in the door. That is over now. He adores his foster mom, followed her around and stared at her for the first few weeks too. I think he was just unsure of what was happening or who they were! I expect him to settle into a new home fairly quickly. I would like him to have a fenced yard but leash walking is fine as well. No Children under 12. He has not been around them and he scares easily.

Sadie

Foster Home Notes: Sadie is a sweet girl. She is a little happy to see me when I get home but I give her a treat and pet on the head and off she bounces to go outside. She is still young at heard and has never had anyone spend time with her. She can sit and come on command. She is crate trained and housebroken but I have a dog door. Sadie will sit and stare at me when I am watching television. She just wants met to acknowledge her and pet her then she will lay down. She is a great dog and loves to go for walks and we are working on her leash manners as well. Sadie needs a home with a secure fenced yard or an active person. She needs to lose weight. She will chase a ball but loses interest if it stops moving or you throw it too far. She is NOT the most active lab on earth LOL I only have this one photo of Sadie b/c she knows what the camera looks like and is terrified of it.

Cookie

Foster Home Notes: Cookie is a very smart and sweet girl. She can sit, shake, come and walks wonderfully on the leash. She is very aware of her surroundings when out on leash and listens perfectly. At home, Cookie plays her heart out with her foster siblings. They play chase, fetch and wrestle but her favorite time is love time and nap time. She comes up and lays her head gently on my lap for attention. On hot days I find her passed out in front of the air vents sleeping like a baby. She loves toys and chew bones of course. We have a tall fenced yard that Cookie loves to play in but she would prefer to be inside with us. We no longer crate her b/c she is over it and can get out of anything. Cookie needs a home with an active person or a tall fenced yard. She doesn't want to run away but she can clear a short fence without a second thought. She would a great dog to take on hikes or camping as well as just to hang around the house. She really doesn't care as long as she gets lots of love and treats. Special Needs: Cookie is very shy of strangers and will need someone with dog experience and lots of patience to allow her to settle in and come to you in her own time. She has gone to two new homes and each time she is scared and refuses to come to anyone. She has never stayed more then a few days in these homes and needs someone to give her time and also spend time with her before I leave her with you so she knows who you are. She is so awesome, loving and loyal, I hope that special person is out there. We have been looking for them for 2 years.

Katie

Foster Home Notes: Katie is a very sweet dog who just wants to be loved.  Her goofy grin and silly ears (I call them angel wings, I swear one day she’s going to flap them hard enough and become airborne!) will capture your heart. She has the playfulness of a puppy but the smarts of an adult dog. 

She knows all of her commands and has never chewed on anything except her toys.  She loves to be outside when the weather is nice but is perfectly content to stay inside and lay in her bed or on the floor near me.  She is truly a people-oriented dog and absolutely thrives on attention.  She loves carpet, she just rolls around with her feet in the air like she's the happiest dog alive.  She also loves to have her back scratched and starts dancing around under my hand whenever she gets a good scratch. She walks pretty well on a leash but she does get excited. She likes to make sure she knows where you (her walker) are at all times and she likes to sniff, she would benefit from being able to go on more long walks.  One of her favorite “toys” is the vacuum cleaner.  Whenever I bring out the vacuum she tries to play with it by bowing and barking in front of it.  Her playfulness makes house cleaning fun.  Katie would be happiest in a home where she was either an only dog or was one of two pets. She is a busybody and gets a little anxious if there are too many other animals to keep tabs on. If you want a dog who wants to be near you, has a big, goofy grin and a sweet disposition this is the dog for you.

Buster

Foster Home Notes: Buster is a very youthful loving boy who loves hugs and kisses. He has never met a stranger he didn't love, even though most people back away from him, he just wiggle and wiggles not understanding why they would not love him too! He loves to go for walks on leash but needs training b/c he is very strong and powerful if she see's someplace he wants to go, he will take you with him. He sits and comes on command. Buster loves other dogs and really likes the dog park. When all the dogs rush him though, he lays down submissively. He gets his feelings hurt easily. The funniest thing about Buster is that when you try to get him to play fetch, he watches the ball, then gets bored when it stops moving and looks at me again to see what else I am going to throw. Busters best friend is a 30 lbs beagle who keeps him on his toes. If you want a love bug who will snuggle and be loyal to you for the rest of your life, this is him.

Corey

Foster Home Notes: Corey is a wonderfully smart sweet boy and he listens well. He can be aloof when he is too busy to be bothered but most of the time he comes immediately when called and just looks at you with his silly look. He sits on command, comes, and goes in his bed when told. When he plays he loves to keep his butt in the air and elbows on the ground and pounce around like a gigantic cat. He acts like a puppy when he does this and he is so big, he looks goofy. Corey spends his days just hanging out and lounging around on his dog bed or sometimes I will catch him on the love seat if his bed is taken. He is on Joint supplements for arthritis in his hips so he doesn't like to lay on the cold hardwood floor. Corey loves to go for walks but he still walks to walk you. He doesn't really pull hard, he just pulls you in the direction he wants to go. Corey is good with most people but gets nervous if they rush up on him. I don't know why anyone would rush on a dog anyway! He likes to sniff your hand, ignore you for a while then he will come to you and make you his best friend. . He is a very loyal boy and just needs someone to let him lay around and retire. He needs a home without kids coming and going and a fenced yard. He just wants some peace and quiet. Please open your heart to love this boy - he deserves it!

SandyBoy

Foster Home Notes: Sandy is a sweet, happy boy who just want to be loved. He loves to play ball but he won't bring it back. He wants to be chased. When Sandy was a pup, he lived in the house and was housebroken. Once he grew up though, they put him outside. He currently lives with a lady in her 80's who can no longer care for him since her husbands death. I took Sandy to get shaved down for the summer and deflead. He was enimic from all the fleas on him! He now feels good but it breaks myheart that I h ad to put him back on that runner for now until we can find him a home. On our way back from the groomwe, I took him to the dog park and all he did was sniff around but he really enjoyed his leash walk and running around the park. However, he didn't want to leave and when I tried to get him, he would run. LOL This needs work. :)

Sandy is very loyal and very smart. Even when she lets him off the runner, he never leaves his yard but does love to run laps. He would really love to have a big yard to run in and someone to throw the ball for him or someone who can just spend time with him and take him for walks. If you can adopt or foster Sandy to get him out of the heat, please let us know. Adoption fee still applies for adoption because we have to get his veterinary work up to date and I just spend $70 to groom him.

Honey URGENT!!! Foster home needed

Foster Home Notes: Honey is a wonderfully sweet, loyal little angel who has had a tough start in life. It is so obvious that she was abused and with pit bulls being so sensitive to begin with, now everything in life concerns her. When I met Honey, she trembled in fear but I sat on the floor and she eventually gave me kisses. However when I started taking her photo, I got that terrified look again. Honey is afraid of strangers, especially men but once she gets to know you, she is yours forever. In her current foster home, she tries to climb up in bed to snuggle with her mom and dad at night and she gets so sad when they make her get down. She lives with several other dogs who are all less then 20 lbs and she is submissive to them. She walks on a leash but you can't let her off leash b/c she will chase cars down the road or bicycles. If you put her on a chain, she barks at everyone. A nice fenced yard or leash walking is what she needs. Someone with lots of patience and love to give to this special girl.

Hailey

Foster Home Notes: Hailey is a very sweet girl who love to go for walks and put that nose to the ground. She has the stubborn hound streak in her that hound lovers love but she is very smart and I think in the right home she would be perfect. At this point, Hailey just lays around b/c she is 40 lbs overwieght. She has a thyroid condition which requires one pill a day and I also have her on a green bean diet where 40% of her daily food intake are green beans. She loves it and has lost a few lbs in the last couple of weeks. She is an awesome dog and just needs someone to love her.

Max

Foster Home Notes: FEMALE ONLY HOME NEEDED- Max is a wonderful boy but he is fearful of men. Something in his past has made him afraid. On a great note, Max is a love bug to the ladies. He loves to go for walk and play ball. He runs like a deer and is amazingly fast. He is great with other dogs and runs, wrestles and rolls with the best of them. When hanging out in the house, Max loves to lay on his dog bed, look out the sliding glass door and chew on his bones. He listens well and is very smart.

Notes: We have tried to place Max in a new home with a husband. While initially Max was fine, after getting more settled, he started to get nervous and fearful of the husband. Max was adopted to be a buddy to the husband so this was not an ideal situation for either one. A new home would have to understand that he is a special case. He has never bitten anyone nor do I think he will but I would not want him put in a situation where his fears turned to aggression. EXPERIENCED DOG OWNERS NEED ONLY APPLY - thanks for understanding.

JD

Foster Home Notes: JD is a big teddy bear! He is very very shy of new things but usually just lays down submissively or shows his belly. He is good on leash but if cars start to go by, he will stop and lay down. He is good with everyone he meets but again, he lays down. He lives with 4 cats who he tries his best to avoid at all times. :)

JD is a dog who need a fenced in yard and a big dog bed in the house. He is a lumbering lug who is mst content when he is at home in the comfort of familiar surroundings. He has a giant teddy bear that he lays with and carries around the house. If you move his bear, he will go get it and put it back where he left it and look at you funny. LOL

Roxy

Foster Home Notes: Roxy is a big goofy baby. She is scared of new people but warms up quickly. Once she knows you she just wants to be loved. She is very smart as well and listens great. Roxy loves other dogs and has been fostered by a man who works at a doggie day care. So at night, she is at his house but all day she plays her heart out with lots of other dogs big and small. She is a very gentle girl but has no idea how big she is.

Roxy has a bad start in live. She lived down the street from me and I watch as the kids rode their bikes around her hitting her with plastic bats. She acted like she liked it but in the end, it made her terrified of kids. At a yong age, Roxy had some sort of trauma happen to the side of her face so her face is a little crooked as well. She had entrophia surgery on her eye and the cost is how I convinced the niehgbor to give her to me. Due to her past, she is scared of small kids and she happy/submissive pee's. She needs a home who can come home and ignore her and make her go outside before she gets any attention. She needs home that doesn't care that she is not a guard dog and just wants to be loved. Someone to look past her crooked face and be able to see that huge heart inside. Did I mention that she likes to spoon! :)
