My story

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

*Adoption Fee Partially Sponsored

Meet newcomer Jack!

This sweet senior mixed breed was brought to Faithful Friends under less than ideal circumstances. His owner passed away, and he was stranded for several days inside his home before being rescued.

Now acclimating to kennel life, Jack is surprising us with his goofy antics and high energy level. We'd love to find this active old gentleman a new permanent residence ASAP.

Jack has just joined our playgroups and is receiving a gold star. He's happy to make new friends and engage in zoomies with them, but he's equally content to bounce around the yard and do is own thing. He has decent leash manners - he's not a heavy puller even if doesn't walk in a perfect heel.

Jack has a party trick - his legs are made of springs! He doesn't jump ON you, just straight up in the air, and he achieves unbelieveable heights! He loves booty scratches, and he DEMANDS attention. His tale wags in windmilling circles as he anticipates his meals or some free time outside of the kennel.

Jack is an exemplary office dog. Not only does he remain accident free, he's incredibly well-behaved, sticking to dozing on the couch or zooming around playing with toys. He does not counter surf nor does he act destructively. It is very rare to encounter a dog who is simultaneously mannerly yet SO passionate about play! He is a hilarious and entertaining companion and keeps us laughing throughout the day. Jack has a wide array of funny noises he use to "talk back" to us. He squirms and worms around, contorting his body to get optimum pets. He's a fan of squeaky and crinkly toys.

Overall, this spunky senior sweetheart with a heart of gold and legs made of springs is always so fun to spend time with. We envision his ideal forever home as someone with a heart for senior dogs but who is still able to keep up with active, able-bodied, and enthusiastically physical players. Whether you would join him in tug, wrestling, or zoomies, Jack would spend his not-quite-endless energy with you forever.

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in one of our adoptable pets, you can visit the the Adoption Center and fill out a paper application, fill out our application online from our website, or submit a request to receive one by email. Once your application has been reviewed and approved, you are welcome to come by the center during our open hours for a meet-and-greet! We also ask that our dog applicants who have dogs of their own bring their current dog/s for a meet-and-greet with the potential new family member as well.

If the animal you are interested in has no other applications in and FFAA staff feel that you are a good fit, approved applicants may finalize the adoption the same day!

Email adopt.ffaa@gmail.com for any questions!

All animals are spayed or neutered before adoption, are up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, and are microchipped.

Our website: https://www.ffaaneosho.org/

If you choose to fill out an application online, click on the link to our website, hover over "Adopt," and then select either "Cat" or "Dog" to fill out the application that matches the species of the animal you are interested in - our dog and cat applications have different questions!

More about this shelter

Faithful Friends Animal Advocates, Inc is a non-profit organization committed to helping our community become a place where animals are treated with kindness and respect. Further, we want to be a voice for the welfare of animals in our community through various avenues.

We fulfill these goals by taking in homeless and vulnerable animals, rehabilitating, vetting, and preparing them for their future home, and ensuring that they are a good fit for those interested. Our goal is longevity - we are thorough when approving applications because we want their next home to be forever.

Our pledge to the animals under our charge knows no time limits. Our no-kill mission means that as long as it takes, we will keep searching for their perfect home. And if during that search, they need to rejoin our care, we welcome them with open arms no matter how long it has been.

People
From our paid staff to volunteers that support us at events and throughout the week, the dedicated and passionate community members that are involved in FFAA's mission are what keep us going. We always welcome new faces! If you are interested or know someone who would like to support our efforts, please contact us. We could not do it without our foster families, dog walkers, kennel cleaners, puppy and kitten socializers, event organizers, artists, chefs - everything we do is a group effort and thanks to the time and effort given freely and faithfully year after year.
