Story
Meet Scout 🐾💙, a handsome and incredibly smart boy who’s ready to find his perfect match! This treat-motivated superstar loves learning new things and truly shines when he has a job to do. Whether it’s long walks, exciting agility courses, engaging sniff work, or cruising along on car rides, Scout is always up for an adventure. After a day of fun, he’s more than happy to curl up on a cozy bed and enjoy a well-deserved nap. Scout is a very sweet dog who enjoys playing with other dogs outside of the home. However, when it comes to his living space, he prefers to keep his castle all to himself and would do best as the only pet in the household. Scout is also looking for a home without children under 16. While we’re not sure of the reason, we respect his comfort level and want to set him up for success. Scout will need multiple meet-and-greets to ensure a smooth transition into his new home. He is currently on anxiety medication, which he will need to continue, and he thrives with patient, understanding adopters who will support his needs. In return, Scout will give you loyalty, companionship, and a lifetime of love. If you’re looking for a clever, devoted partner for both adventures and quiet evenings in, Scout may just be your perfect match. - Around 5 years 8 months old - Currently just under 75lbs - Good with dogs outside the home since he prefers his things to stay HIS - Prefers kids 16+ - Adoption fee: $175 *sponsored* This dog is currently housed at our shelter. If you are interested, please come in at your earliest availability during our open hours, no appointment necessary. We do same-day adoptions, do not hold dogs, and work on a first-come, first-served basis as long as it is an excellent fit for both parties. If you have questions or want to possibly schedule an appointment on one of our closed days, you may email dogs@adoptapetfenton.com. Dog adoption fees include spay/neuter, rabies vaccine (if age-appropriate), distemper/parvo combination vaccine, leptospirosis vaccine (if age-appropriate), bordetella vaccine, deworming, heartworm test (if age appropriate), heartworm preventative, flea preventative, a dental cleaning (if necessary), and a microchip. Future vaccines, tests, and treatments will be the responsibility of the adopter.

Story
Meet Stitch – Your Three-Legged Bundle of Joy! 🐾 This adorable little guy may be missing a leg, but he’s overflowing with personality and love! Stitch came to us with a severely injured leg that required emergency amputation, and he has truly amazed everyone with his resilience. His surgery site is still healing, but you’d never know it by watching him—he runs, plays, and lives life to the fullest. Stitch is currently thriving in a foster home with other dogs and gets along wonderfully with everyone he meets. He’s a social, happy pup who absolutely loves attention. His signature move? Full-body wiggles every time he sees his favorite people—it’s impossible not to smile! He’s crate trained and mostly house trained, and he enjoys both playtime and cozy snuggles. Whether he’s bouncing around or curled up next to you, Stitch is just happy to be loved. Stitch is up to date on all medical care, neutered, and continuing to heal beautifully from his surgery. If you’re looking for a sweet, resilient companion who will bring endless joy into your life, Stitch is your guy. Adoption Fee: $500 📧 Interested in meeting Stitch? Email: dogs@adoptapetfenton.com

Story
If you are looking for a bestie, Lily is your girl. Lily is very loyal and will want to be with you every chance she can, either being active or snuggled up on the couch. Even though she is nine, she loves to go for walks, run with the bike and fetch tennis balls. She will need a person or family who will be able to spend quality time with her and help work out her energy. She is house trained, good with older children as she tries to herd them. Lily is an experienced vacationer but also does best with home care if staying home vs a kennel. If you are active family looking for the best girl to bring along, Lily is waiting for you!

Story
Meet this little Chihuahua companion Yarrow 🐾 — he is exactly what you’d expect from the breed! Small in size but big in personality, this pup is sweet, affectionate, and loves nothing more than curling up close for cuddles with their favorite person. Like many Chihuahuas, they also have a big voice and aren’t afraid to share their opinions, making them a tiny watchdog who always wants to be part of the conversation. Yarrow enjoys the company of other dogs and would do especially well in a home with a friendly canine companion who can help show them the ropes and build their confidence in a new environment. Whether it’s playtime with a dog friend or snuggling up with their human, they’re happiest when they’re surrounded by their little circle of family. If you love the classic Chihuahua charm—loyal, expressive, cuddly, and full of personality—this little one could be the perfect addition to your home. 🐕💛 - Around 1 years old - Currently under 15lbs - Good with cats and dogs - Adoption fee: $400 This dog is currently housed at our shelter.

Story
Rex is a resilient, affectionate boy with a heart as big as his incredible spirit 💛🐾 Born with congenital megaesophagus, Rex has learned that a little extra care just means a little extra love. He needs to be fed upright in a Bailey chair so his meals can safely reach his stomach — and he handles his special routine like an absolute champ. He thrives on a high-quality, nutrient-dense diet (currently The Farmer’s Dog), which has been working wonderfully for him. Rex will need lifelong management, including his upright feeding routine, possible medications, and regular veterinary checkups to help him feel his very best. While megaesophagus can shorten a dog’s lifespan, Rex refuses to let it define him or dull his joy. He greets each day with enthusiasm, a wagging tail, and an eagerness to be close to his people. He is a loving, social sweetheart who adores attention, companionship, and being part of the action. Rex is looking for a dedicated, compassionate adopter who can continue his care and give him the warm, supportive home he truly deserves. In return, he’ll give you unwavering love, resilience that inspires, and a bond that is nothing short of extraordinary. - Around 3 years 2 months old - Currently 71lbs - Adoption fee: $175 This dog is currently housed at our shelter.
