Story
They call me Chloe, but you can call me your new best friend! I am a really sweet gal who is looking to be the only pet in my forever home. Believe me, I have enough good looks and personality that you won't even need to think about other dogs or cats. I love stuffed animals, treats and when people tell me I'm pretty. I'm hoping you'll save a spot for me next to you on the couch!

Story
Hey! I’m Walter! I’ve been with Fetch for awhile now, and I’m STILL looking for my forever family. Let me reintroduce myself:   I’m a happy boy who likes to be a part of what’s going on. Whether we’re making dinner, you’re showering, or doing laundry - doesn’t matter to me as long as we’re together. I can supervise any project you got goin on! I am always excited to show you what I have. I am kennel/crate trained and I know to do my business outside! I’m strong, like you can tell I work out and all that. I know how to walk nicely on a leash but sometimes I seriously forget it’s even attached, this nose of mine is soooo powerful it’s crazy. I am special, my foster mom says it all the time. Just to make sure I get enough love and attention, it would be best if I am the only “good boy” in my forever home. I run like a graceful rhino and my white hair is so silky soft you won’t be able to resist loving on me. I have gotten myself into a couple situations and I really want to leave my troubled past behind me and move forward with people who get me. People who know tell me that I need structure and leadership: if you let me be the pack leader, I will take advantage of that situation.   I love training and learning, my foster mom is kick butt cool at it, she has lots more information for you since I am sooo special, so apply and let’s get this party started!   Apply here: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt   Name: Walter   Sex: Male   Breed: Pitbull/Basset Hound mix   Age: 4 years   Weight: 50 lbs   Current on vaccines: Yes   Altered: Yes   Microchipped: Yes   Adoption: 200   Good with Cats: No   Good with other Dogs: Prefers to be the only dog   Good with Kids: Possibly   *Special Requirements: Needs to be the only dog in the home.   *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member. It can also help set up a relationship with greater odds of success integrating your new pet into your family. Anyone who provides proof of completed positive reinforcement training will receive a 100 dollar refund from Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc!

Story
Hello my human friends. My name is Lola and I am a ball of EN-ER-GYYY! I recently finished training school and now I am looking for the perfect family! I learned lots of stuff at school and would love to find a family with dog experience that can keep working with me. And I truly mean that. I'm the type of pup that NEEDS structure and quite possibly, continued training. So if you are unable to dedicate some time towards that for both my sake and yours, then I'm probably not the best fit for you. I'm still working on trusting strangers, but when I warm up to you...I can't help but stay by your side!I love to be outside with my foster family. So hiking, swimming or just going for walks is wonderful. I like to go, go, go! Is there such thing as too long of a walk!?!?! I'm kennel trained, potty trained, and I do well with kids. So maaaaybe I can be a tad selfish when it comes to other animals in my house. What can I say though? I like all the attention on me (I'm kind of a princess). Right now, I know how to sit, lay down, and shake, but I am eager to learn new tricks!Are you the family for me?? Put in your application and let's meet!!Apply here: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adoptName: LolaSex: FemaleBreed: Staffie mixAge: 3.5 yearWeight: 40 lbsCurrent on vaccines: YesAltered: YesMicrochipped: YesAdoption: 200Good with Cats: NoGood with Kids: 5 and upGood with other Dogs: No Special Requirements: Must be an only pet. *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member.

Hey, I’m Raine! And I’m Blossom! Let us re-introduce ourselves, as a pair!! We have decided we just can’t be without each-other.    Raine here, I have a hard time making new canine friends so we need a home where Blossom and I would be the only dogs. Outside of not being good at making new dog friends I’m one of the most relaxed, easy-going gals you’ll ever meet! I love ALL humans. I love snuggles. I’m house trained and just perfect in my crate.    Now my turn! Blossom here, I was feral when the fine people at Fetch took me in! While I know I love ear scratches and playing, I still take some time to warm up to new human friends. Raine really helps me with this since she’s so outgoing! I LOVE to play and when I warm up to you, I’m one of the goofiest gals you’ll find. I am great in my kennel and house trained too! (Just sometimes if I’m meeting someone new or in a meeting place I may stress potty, but that’s only in high stress situations)    We are some of the silliest, funnest gals you’ll meet! I know we’re asking for a lot out of a family but we think we’re worth it. Once we know and trust you, we’re both good off leash and neither of us mind kitties either! If you don’t currently have any other pups and you’re willing to open your home to us, we won’t let you down!    Apply to meet us! Raine will be happy to meet you and let me (Blossom) know if you’re ok peeps for us.    Apply here: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt    Names: Raine and Blossom Ages: 3.5 years & 3 years Weight: 40 lbs & 30 lbs Breed: Bully mix & Shepherd mix Sex: Females Altered: Yes Adoption fee: 400 for pair Good with Cats: Yes Good with Dogs: No other dogs in home, please.  Good with Kids: Yes.

Hi I’m Rayden! Don’t let my grey hair fool you; I’m young at heart! I’m 10 years young. I have a lot to say. I can remind you to feed me, tell you when it’s time for bed, and when I want to go out. My ideal family would let me be me. I would be ok sharing a home with another dog as long as they’re nice to me.   I like to chase cats so it’s probably better I don’t live with one. When it comes to tiny humans, I’m ok with them if they are respectful of me but ideally, older kids would be better. I’m ok in a kennel, though I do great without one. I just need a comfy bed to crash on! I really like naps, walks, and being with the family. I hope to meet you soon!   Apply here: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt   Name: Rayden   DOB: 4/28/13   Weight: 45 lbs   Breed: Mixed breed   Sex: Male   Altered: Yes   Adoption: 200   Good with Cats: selective   Good with Dogs: Yes   Good with Kids: Yes with respectful kids   Special Requirements: None.   *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member.
