My story

FOSTER/FOSTER-TO-ADOPT:
Meet Denver! This beautiful Aussie/Border Collie mix has been through a lot in his life including living on the streets. He will need a confident owner who has experience with working breeds and rescue dogs. He came to us very shut down and did not trust. He is starting to come out of his shell but can be anxious, very protective and is only beginning to trust.

He is potty trained, and crate trained and loves to go on walks. He does resource guard (with food, toys, etc), which is no surprise as he is used to competing for his food and resources living on the streets. He requires an adult only home with no other animals or children. He will need a free standing home in suburban or rural neighborhood with a fully fenced yard. He would benefit from being in a foster/foster-to-adopt home where someone could work with him and teach him to trust again.

He is currently intact and will need to be altered prior to adoption. He is up to date on his vaccinations and microchipped. His adoption fee is $200.

More about this rescue

Forever Home Dog Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We receive dogs from owner surrenders and overcrowded shelters. All of the dogs are housed in private, loving foster homes or a kennel in the greater Seattle area. We assess their behaviors and health and help them relax during their transition to a forever home. The dogs remain in foster care or in our kenneling facility until they are adopted. All of the dogs visit our vet for a health screening, are spayed or neutered, microchipped and are current on routine vaccinations.

Forever home dog rescue is not a shelter and thus you cannot see the dogs without an appointment.

We need foster homes! Thinking about adopting a dog, but not sure yet about which breed or if you're ready for the long-term commitment? Consider becoming a foster parent. A foster dog placement can be anywhere from two weeks to several months. We provide any dog supplies you may need and cover all necessary medical costs for your foster dog. You provide the love and attention and bring the dogs to adoption events at least twice per month.

Interested? Send us an email at fhdrwa@gmail.com and we'll send you a foster application. It's lots of fun and you will meet lots of dogs and other people who love dogs.
