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 Pansy 🌼 — a gentle, loving girl who truly lives up to her sweet name. Pansy is the definition of a sweetheart and all she really wants is to be close to her person, soaking up every bit of love and attention she can get. She forms strong bonds with her people and will happily stay by your side whether you’re relaxing at home or enjoying some playtime together. Pansy absolutely loves other dogs and gains a lot of confidence from having a canine friend around. Because of this, she would do wonderfully in a home with another friendly dog who can help show her the ropes and be her buddy. When she’s feeling playful, Pansy enjoys a fun game of fetch and running around with her dog friends. But when it’s time to wind down, she’s more than happy to curl up in your lap and settle in for a cozy movie marathon. With her affectionate nature and sweet personality, Pansy will make an incredibly loyal companion for someone looking for a loving shadow and a best friend. 🐾💕 - Around 2 years old - Currently under 20lbs - Good with cats and dogs - Adoption fee: $400 This dog is currently housed at our shelter.

Story
Meet Athena 🐾💕, a beautiful and devoted mama who’s finally ready for a forever home of her own! This sweet, smart girl has done an incredible job raising her 13 puppies — yes, 13!! — and now it’s her turn to be pampered and loved. Athena has a gentle nature and gets along wonderfully with other animals, making her a great addition to a multi-pet household. Despite being a super mom, Athena is still young at heart and will need the basic training a puppy would, including leash skills, potty training, and learning her manners. The good news? She’s intelligent and eager to please, so she’ll thrive with consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. Athena is ready to trade in motherhood for couch cuddles, playtime, and a family to call her own. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion with a heart as big as her journey, Athena is your girl! 🐶💖 - Around 1.5-2 years old - Currently under 80lbs - Good with kids, cats and dogs - Adoption fee: $250 To inquire about this dog, please email dogs@adoptapetfenton.com.

Story
Meet Lincoln 🐶💙 This handsome, snuggly boy loves nothing more than curling up under his very own blanket (yes, even year-round!) and snoozing on the couch or in bed with his favorite human. He’s crate trained, great with dogs at the park, and gets along with cats inside the home—he’ll even cuddle them! Lincoln is a bit of a goofy, active guy who will need a secure 6+ ft fence, some leash manners, and a watchful eye (he’s been known to counter surf and sneak into the trash). He’s not a fan of thunder or fireworks and can be nervous during storms, but with patience and love, he’ll be your most loyal, blanket-burrowing best friend. 🐾 - Around 8 years old - Currently under 65lbs - Good with cats and dogs - Adoption fee: $100 This dog is currently housed at our shelter.
