Story
Meet Oreo! Oreo is female mix breed with a big personality, a playful spirit, and a serious talent for learning! She has had some great training and is looking for an experienced adopter who will continue helping her build on those skills. Oreo is naturally protective and takes her job of keeping an eye on things seriously. Because of that, she’ll thrive with a confident, experienced handler who understands her instincts and is committed to continued training—especially recall and leash manners. When she’s off duty, Oreo is all about TUG, FETCH, and PLAY! 🎾 She loves having fun and does well with other high-energy dogs who can keep up with her playful style. We are strongly encouraging another dog in the home to help her adjust to her new life. Oreo is a smart, loyal girl who will be an amazing companion for someone ready to keep her learning and give her the structure, activity, and guidance she loves. ❤️ - Around 3 years old - Currently 55 lbs - Good with dogs.

Story
Meet Tyler! 🐾❤️ Tyler is a 4-year-old, 11-pound Shih Tzu who is happiest when he’s close to his people. He’s an affectionate little lap dog who loves being loved and is loyal to the people he trusts. Tyler is good with children and new people, although he can be easily scared when he’s in a new environment. He’ll do best with a patient family who can give him time to settle in and feel comfortable. He does better walking with a harness and is mostly crate trained. Tyler is still working on his house manners and may mark, so his new family should be prepared to continue that training. He can also bark when he’s bored, so keeping his little mind and body busy will be important. Tyler previously suffered an injury to his right eye and is now non visual in that eye. He’ll need routine monitoring of the eye and artificial tears twice daily to help keep it comfortable and healthy. If you’re looking for a sweet little companion who wants to be your lap dog and loyal sidekick, Tyler may be your guy. ❤️🐶 • Around 4 years old • Currently 11 lbs • Good with dogs, kids and cats • Adoption fee: $300 This dog is in foster.

Story
Meet your future best friend 🐾✨ This puppy is a perfect bundle of energy, curiosity, and irresistible cuteness—but like all puppies, — is still learning how to be the best dog possible. Continued basic training will be needed, including leash skills, crate training, potty training, and everyday manners. With a growing body and a busy brain, puppies need structure, enrichment, and positive outlets for energy to prevent overstimulation, mouthiness, or the development of unwanted habits. A home committed to consistency, patience, and mental and physical exercise will help — grow into a confident, well-balanced adult dog. With the right foundation, the possibilities are endless! 💛🐶 • Around 3 months old • Currently around 19 lbs. and growing fast! • Good with kids, dogs and cats • Adoption fee: $400 This dog is currently housed at our shelter.

Adoption fees include spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, deworming, preventatives, heartworm testing (if age-appropriate), microchip, and dental cleaning if needed.

Story
Meet your future best friend, Slate! 🐾✨ This lively, rambunctious pup is full of curiosity, energy, and puppy fun! While we don’t know who the parents are, one thing we can all agree on is that these pups are likely to grow into big dogs — and they’ll need a home prepared for everything that comes with raising a large, active puppy. That means keeping them safe and appropriately managed through their mouthy stages of development, while providing plenty of exercise, outdoor time, enrichment, and positive outlets for all that growing-body energy. Continued training will also be important, including leash skills, crate training, potty training, and everyday manners. These pups are going to need families who are ready to be patient, consistent, and active. With the right structure, training, and plenty of opportunities to explore and burn energy, they have everything they need to grow into wonderful, confident adult dogs. 💛🐶 • Around 3 months old • Currently 18 lbs. and growing! • Good with kids, dogs and cats • Adoption fee: $350 This dog is currently housed at our shelter.

Story
💕 Meet Gucci! 💕 Gucci is a sweet, social girl who loves people and enjoys playing with dogs big and small! She was also a wonderful mom to her puppies, and now it’s finally her turn to find her forever home. 🥰 Gucci has shown some separation anxiety in the shelter, including vocalizing and chewing when left alone. This may improve once she settles into a home, but adopters should be prepared for crate training to keep her safe when she is left alone and to help her learn that being alone is okay. She did well when housed with her puppies and would enjoy having another dog in her forever home. Gucci would do best with a patient adopter who owns their home and is ready to give her time, structure, and lots of love. ❤️ We think Gucci is absolutely perfect and can’t wait to see her find the family she deserves! - Around 1 years old - Currently 43 lbs - Good with dogs, kids and cats - Adoption fee: $225 This dog is currently at our shelter and available for adoption! Please visit during open hours — no appointment needed. We offer same-day adoptions, do not place holds, and work on a first-come, first-served basis to ensure the best fit for both the dog and adopter. Questions or interested in a possible appointment on a closed day? Email dogs@adoptapetfenton.com. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, deworming, preventatives, heartworm testing (if age-appropriate), microchip, and dental cleaning if needed.
