My story

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

FOREVER HOME NEEDED (currently in foster care)
Say hello to this sweet girl, Darby! Darby is a 1.5-year-old, 38 LB Aussie mix who is the sweetest little gal, looking for her forever home. She thrives being around her foster sisters and brother, playing ball in the yard, wrestling, and chewing on toys.

Darby is a shy girl at first and will take a patient adopter to help her warm up. She is curious and loves to explore new places and smells in the house and out in the yard. While she isn’t super treat motivated, she goes wild at mealtime with a hilarious dance. She is a great eater, gobbles up all her kibble, and does well eating around the other pups. She enjoys bones and jerky chews too! She has zero aggression and all the love to give other dogs and her forever humans.

Darby is good on leash and has quickly learned basic commands like sit and paw! She responds to “let’s go!” to come back in from outside playtime in the yard and is house broken. She loves other dogs and they give her confidence. She will need a home with at least one other friendly and playful dog. She will be the absolute sweetest companion. Darby loves laying on the couch and getting comfy, and sleeps in bed with us each night. She will go in her crate if needed but is perfect to stay out when her humans aren’t home. She is seen snoozing on camera the whole time!

Darby will be a great fit for an adult only home who is willing to spend as much time with her as possible. If you sit on the couch, she will be there touching you. If you go to bed, she will want to cozy up with you too. She can be shy and skittish on walks and we are looking for a standalone home with a fully fenced yard for her in a quiet neighborhood. No apartment or city life for her.

Someone would be lucky to have her as an addition to their furry family. Adopt this little angel Darby girl!

Darby is up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and spayed. Her adoption fee is $500.

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 are/or will be 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.
