Story

I have been trying with this little guy for over a year. He seemed to be getting better, but I had an injury so wasn’t able to get out much for a few months, and I’ve been trying again, but his reactivity has escalated, and now he is more aggressive towards the smaller, older dog and the situation is frightening me. Fenris is a 3 year old chihuahua mix. He weighs about 11#. He is occasionally calm and sweet at home, but at times gets anxious for reasons unknown to me. He is nippy at times, but will play with me nicely at home and sit next to me, but gets aggressive with other people and dogs, and sometimes with me. I have tried quite a few different online training courses and give him various CBD treats and oil. He likes toys and treats. I had him evaluated for group classes but he isn’t appropriate. I think he might do better with a male or maybe a couple, as I’m guessing his abuser may have been female. He does ok on a leash, but we mostly do loose leash in the yard.

Please contact Darlene at 302-312-5129 (fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com) for more information about this pet. This dog is located in Newark, DE. Visit us on the web at https://fur-everpaws.com/fur-ever-paws-adoption-application/ to submit an application. Please contact the foster directly at 302-312-5129 (text or call) or via email at fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com Fur Ever Paws Dog Rescue is a small no kill rescue operating in the Delaware/Maryland area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit that rescues and places homeless, neglected or abused dogs from high-kill shelters in the south into loving, responsible committed and permanent homes. We feel our comprehensive adoption process which includes not only taking the time to match the dog to the prospective new owner but helping to educate that owner in responsible dog care, allows us to find the best homes for our little buddies and the best companions for you! Each week we use USDA certified transports to bring dogs from high-kill shelters in the south to our fosters where they all receive the appropriate medical care and are placed in nurturing loving homes while they await placement in their forever homes. Interested in one of our dogs? Great! Now that you've seen them here you'll need to go to our website where you'll find our list of adoptable dogs (updated every week). Then, it's just a simple process of finding a dog you're interested in and filling out an application on our site. Once we receive your application, whoever is fostering that particular dog will contact you and do a short over the phone interview to complete your application process. If everything works out, they will set an appointment with you so come out and "visit" with the dog you're interested in (we want to make sure that not only are you a good fit for the dog but that the dog will fit with you). If everything works out, you'll be able to take rover (or spot, or jax) home with you that very day. A couple of things you should know: We can't hold dogs over the phone or via email. Adoption fees vary based on breed. All of our dogs have been vet checked and dewormed (if possible due to age, additional treatment may be needed). We provide a spay or neuter voucher to all of our adopters. &#226&#128&#139 December 21, 2025, 12:40 pm

Story

Rita is a tan Chihuahua rescue who originally came from the Dallas area. She is approximately 10 years old and has a wonderful disposition. Rita is energetic, bubbly, and playful, and she enjoys being around people and receiving attention. Due to a change in my personal circumstances, I am no longer able to give Rita the time and attention she deserves. I am looking for a loving, stable home where she can continue to receive affection, companionship, and proper care. Rita would do best with someone who enjoys an engaging, sweet dog and can provide her with consistent attention and love.

Story

This friend has just arrived to us on transport from a high-intake shelter partner! When our friends are new to us, we are often unsure of their full background. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and update their bio with more information as we learn. They are pending interactions with animals until they have been cleared by our vet. Please note that we often are unsure of house, crate, car, and leash training status upon arrival. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story

Dog Name: Henry Breed: Chi Mix Sex: Male Age: 9 Years Old Weight: 10 lbs Medical Needs: None Housebroken: No. He’s spent his life inside a kennel so he’s use to going on puppy pads. We’ve had him out of his kennel and he did pee once but we didn’t have a puppy pad on the floor. He didn’t make a noise or whine that he had to go potty. We think this is because he’s been kept in a kennel. Crate trained: Yes. he’s very use to the kennel. He’s most comfortable in the kennel. Good in the car: Yes. We put him in a cat carrier and he was quiet. Good on a leash: Yes and no. He’s good on the leash and doesn’t pull but he also stays put on the leash. Again, he’s not had interaction with a leash. He just lays down in the yard. Energy level: Very low key. He shakes when we bring him out of the kennel and when we hold him. He’ll calm down after 5 mins. .Need a fenced in yard: No. Dog Friendly: Yes, Henry loves our dogs. His tail starts wagging and the sniffing begins. If yes, does your foster need another dog in its adoptive homes? No but it might be good if you have one to help bring out Henry’s confidence. Cat Friendly: Yes. Henry sniffs the cats, the cats sniff him. They will lay down next to Henry. He doesn’t go after them. Kid Friendly: Unsure because we don’t have kids. If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? Children should be old enough to know boundaries for pets. Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? Henry is a sweet, quiet boy who has never been given a chance to be a dog. 9 years of his life contained in a kennel. He would do great with someone that has the patience to get him comfortable, trusting again and loved. He’s given me some kisses since we’ve had him. He’s a gentle old man type of soul. Who knows how long he has left but he deserves a family of his own and to feel safe and loved. He enjoys his showers with me and brushing. He loves treats. He’s just an all around sweet old man. I’ll put him in bed with me with a puppy pad under him and he will shake for a little. I’ll be petting him and talking to him and he calms down. He’ll lay like that for as long as you lay beside him.
