My story

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

Meet Fozzie: A Sweet, Loyal 8-Year-Old Looking for Love
Fozzie is an 8-year-old gentleman with a gentle and kind soul. Calm, friendly, and loyal, he’s the kind of pup who wants nothing more than to be close to his people.
Fozzie came into foster care with his brother after their dad passed away. His brother has since crossed the rainbow bridge, and this sweet boy has found comfort in routine and the companionship of his foster sister. Now, he’s ready for a forever home where he can feel safe and loved again.

Traits
- Loyal, calm, sweet, and attentive
- Gentle and affectionate with people
- Good with respectful kids and not easily startled

A Few of Fozzie's Favorite Things
- Chasing squirrels and bunnies
- Walks and outdoor exploring
- Belly rubs and snuggles
- Snacks
- Cuddling on the couch or sleeping in bed with his person

Ideal Home
Fozzie needs a calm home with someone who is home a good deal of the time because being alone is scary after all he’s been through. Having a high pitched bark we would recommend a private home vs. apartment life. A fenced yard or daily walks are ideal since he loves a good squirrel chase. Fozzie is great with respectful kids and friendly strangers. He can get a little too excited around cats, so a cat-free home is best.
He’s mostly house trained, though he may have an occasional accident and appreciates patience. More than anything, Fozzie just wants a predictable, loving home where he can feel secure and cherished. He would also do well with training classes to build confidence and bond with his person.
If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion and best friend, Fozzie is ready to love you forever.
