Foster Home Feedback  

10/20/25 Foster Feedback: Jerry has been with us for a kennel break for several days now.   He does extremely well with our dog who can be a bit of a diva. Jerry handles her cues like a champ and doesn't bother her when she wants to left alone.   He has started going to the door when he wants to go out so other than the one accident (middle of the night so I probably slept through him telling us he needed to go) there has been no issues at all.  Jerry has zero reaction to our neighbors dogs on three sides of our fence.   He takes treats very nicely and does not bother you when you are eating.   He will just sit patiently waiting in case you want to share.   He will take a bit to get used to new people as he is pretty scared of them, but with some patience he will learn to trust you and become your shadow.   We are working on that so he can learn that he is brave and doesn't need to be scared of that big scary world out there.   I work remotely so most of the day he is curled up by my feet, keeping me company.  Jerry has not chewed on anything other then the toys we have out for him.   Sometimes he likes to see what's on the counters, but listens right away when he is told no.   He is extremely smart and has picked up on our routine fast. He has been left home alone-not in a crate-a few times for roughly 4 hours.  There were no accidents and he basically just chilled on the couch while we were gone.  We have pet cameras to check in on them. Jerry  likes to play in the back yard and is learning to bring the ball back.   He loves a good squeaky toy, loves to play catch and playing with our dog.   Jerry would do best in a home with another dog to play with and show him how brave he is.  Since he is timid he would best in a home that would be patient and let him get comfortable on his own time.   

10/19/25 Volunteer Feedback:
Jerry is a loyal pup with a heart full of love. He enjoys lounging on the couch and soaking up affection. He’ll play when you toss a toy, but his temperament is more mellow. His beautiful fur patterns make him stand out, and his loyal personality truly shines. Walks can make him a little nervous, but with some treats and gentle encouragement, he’s learning to explore the world with confidence.

9/10/25 Volunteer Feedback: Jerry walked so well on our morning shift today, loose leash most of the time.  He's getting better every day at being brave!  

8/25/25 Volunteer Feedback: I had Jerry over at my house this last weekend for a kennel break, and he was a very good boy! He is a little bit shy but warms up very quickly and is definitely very loving. I find him to be a great walker, and even when he gets a bit surprised by other dogs or sudden noises, he can redirect and keep going. Jerry doesn’t become reactive or bark. 
He is a very sweet boy!

8/25/25 Volunteer Feedback: Jerry is a gentle, affectionate boy who forms deep bonds with the people he trusts. While he may be a little unsure in new environments, a few kind words, a couple of treats, and a reassuring touch goes a long way. He quickly blossoms into the sweetest, most loyal companion. On walks, Jerry is attentive and connected, often glancing back to make sure you're still with him. He thrives on human connection and is happiest when he knows he’s part of your world. If you're looking for a devoted friend who will love you wholeheartedly, Jerry would love to meet you!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

There is a pre-adoption application, reference check, and home visit required prior to adopting an animal. There is an adoption donation/fee applied to all dogs. This fee ranges from $100-150. These fees help cover the veterinary care we have provided for the animals while they wait for homes. The fee also helps pay for the food and other general care we provide for the dogs. You must be 21 yrs or older to adopt a dog and can not live in a an area where there are dog breed bans. We do adopt to homes outside on the area, but there are special requirements for out of state adopters.

Go meet their pets

We regularly have "Meet the Dogs!" events at the West Fargo PetSmart store. These events will give you the opportunity to meet some of the dogs we have available for adoption and to visit with our volunteers. See our website for schedule dates/times.
