Forbes’s Rescue Story
Poor Forbes is from a litter of 6 puppies. Their canine mother, Fontana, is a wonderful mom. Fontana is a friendly girl and must be abandoned and found her way to a factory where she thought it was safe to give birth to her puppies. The people at the factory were nice to her but couldn’t let her stay. Fontana took very good care of Forbes and his puppies and kept them healthy and cleaned. Fontana must have suffered and starved for quite some time. The factory workers make sure she has enough food to keep her going. However, they really need to let her go asap. Luckily, through some help, they found Fontana an experienced foster home that was willing to take in Fontana and all her 6 puppies. Their foster mom is an experienced dog rescuer who had found over a thousand dogs loving forever homes around the world. Her home is full of rescued dogs waiting for a chance in life but she didn’t have the heart to turn her back on them. She knew it was urgent to bring them home and promised them a good life.
Fontana and her puppies were very happy the moment they arrived at her home. Their foster mom gave them a comfortable clean room for Fontana so she can nurse her puppies until they are ready to be separated from her. Forbes is doing very well and is ready for his own forever home. He enjoys the company of all her rescued dogs. They have plenty of play time and rest time.
Forbes had a complete health checkup. Forbes is a healthy puppy. He is neutered, had all his puppy’s shots, chipped and de-wormed. He passed negative on his blood tests. Please give Forbes a loving home so we can save more dogs in desperate need.
