******Please note, once completing the initial screen you will be connected with the placement for a video chat. Transports run every few weeks and we will have the dog on the next available transport once approved. If you are not able to accept a dog until a specific time period, please apply at that time************ We are a volunteer run rescue and donate our time to these dogs. IF you are not serious about moving forward in our adoption process, please do not apply. If someone other than yourself is part of the decision making process, please make sure you have spoken with them and they are on board. We really do not want to waste anyone's time if you are not serious about adopting this dog. Teeka, a 1 year 7 month old spayed female, Boxer mix, 42lbs. She is in a foster home in Houston, TX and can transport out of state once an approved adopter is lined up! The amazing Teeka is on the hunt for her forever home. She specializes in best friending with an emphasis on playing! She currently lives with several larger dogs and is learning to respect their boundaries. She LOVES to play with them, but does need some help realizing when her foster siblings are ready to stop. She has not met any cats, so we’re not sure how she’d react to a feline sibling. Her foster mom says she’s done well meeting new human friends and is learning not to jump on them. Because of this and her high energy levels, we do recommend a home with older dog savvy kids. This smartie is house and crate trained! She sleeps quietly in her crate and is kenneled whenever her foster family is out of the house. We don’t recommend leaving her out unsupervised as she may help herself to whatever she finds in the kitchen. Teeka’s love for food is next level and she will try to sneak a bite from you or the other dog’s bowls, but has shown no signs of resource guarding. She is still working on her leash manners, but is getting better every day! She gets a little too excited when she sees other dogs, but is learning to calm down and continue on her walk. This happy girl absolutely loves toys! She knows where the toy basket is and will get one so you can join in the fun. She’s a huge fan of fetch and tug of war! Teeka is learning the joys of relaxing too. She loves to lay on your legs and get some pets and give some kisses. She’s happy just to be near her humans. Teeka is a young pup with boundless energy that will thrive in a home with a yard, daily exercise, training and patience. She’s a goofy, happy, loving girl and with just one look into those pretty doe eyes, your heart will melt! ***Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. *** Interested in applying to adopt her?

Hi! My name is Roo! I'm a 1-year-old Boxer/Bully mix! A little bit about me. I'm A LOT of fun!!! I am still just a puppy and boy do I show it (in the best way possible!) I love to play, and I love other dogs! I do get a bit vocal while playing but that's just me being goofy! I am still a baby so I do need a bit more training, but I can promise you I would be a great dog to adopt as I will bring you endless fun, and cuddles!

Buddy is HERE in Syracuse NY ready to meet you in person! This is Buddy, a 48 lb sweetheart with a mellow spirit and a heart full of love. Estimated to be around 6 years old, Buddy is the definition of calm and collected. He has a peaceful, happy-go-lucky vibe that makes everyone around him feel at ease. He’s gentle with kids, friendly with people, and gets along great with most other dogs, especially small dogs and female dogs. They will be besties! His easygoing nature makes vet visits a breeze—everyone at the clinic adores him! He was out roaming the streets until a kind family took him in. When he was found, he was lying so still, the good Samaritan thought he was dead... until he started wagging his tail. Buddy is being fostered in Syracuse NY! Want to meet him? Please fill out our adoption application and we'll give you a call! Here's the link: www.friendsfurliferescue.org/adoption-application Please copy/paste the above link into your browser ^ There are no extra fees! All is included in the 495 adoption fee. Thank you!

Story
NOT DOG-FRIENDLYAvi was originally picked up as a stray in the town of Cicero and weighs about 68 pounds. He was adopted for several months before his new family unfortunately had to move and couldn`t take Avi with them. Avi is a sweet and gentle brindle boy with an absolute adoration of stuffies and a love of the pool (which is better with toys in it). He`s an easy walker for our volunteers and loves receiving affection before, during, and after walks. If you want a calm and easy going family dog, Avi would be the perfect choice.
