My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


I don’t remember much about my early life except that Mom was always worried about taking care of us puppies. She would leave us sometimes to roam the streets looking for food and better shelter for her family. One day, Mom didn’t come back. I was really scared. Would I ever see her again? What would I do without her? I didn’t know at that time that a very nice lady found Mom and rescued her from the streets. About a week later, the same nice lady found me on the street and brought me home to her house. I couldn’t believe it — my Mom was already there! I remember I had 4 brothers and sisters, but now it’s only me and Mom. I might be a big girl but I am sweet and gentle like a baby lamb. I LOVE people and I especially love to go for rides in the car or for a walk with a leash (so I don’t get lost again). I would love a family to love and cuddle, and that would be my best wish.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All potential adopters are carefully screened through our adoption process:

- If you're interested in an animal, we'll ask that you fill out a questionnaire, which we will review to ensure you and the dog you are interested in adopting are a good match.

- You will be asked to submit to a "home safety check" to determine the level of safety and adequacy of the area for the dog.

- An adoption fee is required and you must sign the adoption agreement, which ensures that if, for any reason, you are unable to keep the dog, he/she to be returned to Forte Animal Rescue only.

- Finally, we personally deliver your new family member to your home.

- Any additional donation would be greatly appreciated, and this portion will be tax-deductible. The donation goes to pay for all of the other animals in our care, many of which come to us with injuries or medical conditions that require treatment. Forte Animal Rescue survives solely on donations and it is for this reason that the adoption fee is nonnegotiable.

- Forte Animal Rescue reserves the right to cancel the adoption process at any time if the home situation or adoptive family has been misrepresented, if certain information was withheld, or if the dog is determined to be a better match with another family.
