Story
Meet Echo! Your Sweet, Playful Little Lovebug!At just 7–8 months old and 26 pounds, Echo is a beautiful Collie mix with a heart as sweet as they come! This spayed young lady has so much love to give and is the perfect combination of playful puppy and gentle companion. She is house-trained, crate-trained, walks nicely on a leash, and sleeps peacefully in her crate all night long. What a good girl!Echo loves toys and bones of all kinds, and she's happy to play fetch in the backyard—at least until one of her canine friends comes along to join the fun! She currently lives with three other dogs and enjoys playing with them. She's still learning her doggy manners and that not every pup wants to share their favorite toys, but she's eager to learn and ready to keep growing. A friendly canine companion could be a wonderful match for this affectionate girl!Of course, Echo knows that life isn't all about playing. She loves curling up in her favorite dog bed and enjoying some downtime throughout the day. She's gentle with both adults and children and is famous for giving the very best wet kisses! Echo has an adorable underbite that adds to her unique charm, but it doesn't slow her down one bit. She eats, drinks, plays, and happily enjoys her nightly treat like any other pup.Echo would make a wonderful addition to a family with another friendly dog looking for a sweet, playful companion. She could also thrive as an only dog with a family ready to give her plenty of love, attention, and opportunities to play.If you're looking for a loving young dog who will make you laugh, keep you company, shower you with kisses, and fill your days with puppy fun, Echo is ready to steal your heart! Could you be the one to give this adorable girl the forever home she's dreaming of?  Adoption fee includes: first 2 DAPP, bordetella, deworming, flea preventative, sterilized, heartworm test, microchip Adoption fee: $525.00   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have. The adoption policies and applications can be found at the following links: https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-cat and https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-dog.

Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters.

Story
https://foha.org/pet/nelson2021/ Nelson here! My new adoptive family will need to be ready to provide a lot of training which my friends at FOHA will help to coordinate at time of adoption. I can be unpredictable so I am looking for a family with no kids 15 and under. Look deep into my different colored eyes - then get me a ball! I LOVE to play fetch! The second I see a ball or hear you say the word, I'm ready to play. I know how to fetch and I'll bring the ball right back to you and drop it at your feet. I also love water and getting sprayed with a hose! I've been lucky to join doggy social here at FOHA and I have enjoyed playing with other dogs. I love going for walks as I get to know the volunteers and they get to know me. As much as I like new dogs I am not comfortable around a lot of new people. So I would not do well in a dog park or doggie daycare. I'll go ahead and say it, I'm extremely smart. I'm looking for an active family that will put my intelligence to good use. I would love to have a huge fenced in backyard to chase my ball until my heart is content. Apartments and condos will not be a good fit for me. If you would like to come meet me, submit an application and we can set up a time to get to know each other. See you soon!! I am looking for a home with no kids, no cats, house with a large backyard, and an experienced owner willing to work on training. Check out all of the dogs available at Friends of Homeless Animals! https://foha.org/pet-adoption/find-a-dog/

Story
https://foha.org/pet/pelican2022/ Hey there, I'm Pelican, and while I may be a dog, my dreams take flight! I'm a spirited and cheerful fellow, always ready for some fun and games. Among all the activities, soccer is my absolute favorite, and I can't resist a thrilling match with my volunteer friends at FOHA. I've had a taste of home life before, where I shared the space with another dog. Things started off well, but I quickly realized that I might be at my best as the only four-legged companion in the house. If you're looking for an only-dog scenario, count me in! I'm a people-loving pup and have the boundless energy that's typical of a border collie mix. Bonus: I'm super soft to the touch, making cuddle time even better. If you're considering bringing me into your life, I have a special request. I'd thrive in a home with a very experienced owner who's up for working with me on a few behavioral challenges. I'd also do best in a home without children. I'm eager to shower you with love and am more than willing to learn and grow. So, what do you say? Will you be the one to come and meet me and embark on this incredible journey together? I'm waiting to spread my wings and soar with you!
