Addie, The Petite and Agile. She's ready to hop on the doggie transport bus and take her freedom ride to her forever home!!! We use a a super reliable transport company. Addison "Addie" spent over a year in a scary shelter, overlooked because she was too terrified to show her true self, just cowered in the back of her kennel, frozen on her bed. The staff of the shelter identified her as one of their residents who desperately needed to be OUT of the shelter have a chance at a future. So she came to me. The first few days were heartbreaking - she trembled at the end of a leash, her tail stayed tucked - always, avoided eye contact. But then one day, it happened, that little tail tip wagged, ever so slightly, still tucked, but it was a major step. After that the growth came faster day by day. And with the help of her foster brother, Joe, she is blossoming into a "real dog!" Addie is surely a mixed breed, but appears may some Feist in her blood. She is athletic, beautiful, sleek, LOVES to chase balls and is incredibly fast. Once the playing is done, she heads straight for her "special spot" on the sofa to snuggle up and relax. Addie is still getting over her fear, making progress daily. When her guard is down she coyly asks for pets, play fetch and loves to snuggle on her soft bed and blanket with the family. She is very food-motivated, which is making her training a breeze! She is currently working hard on her leash walking skills and potty training, gaining confidence every day. She loves her foster brother, Little Joe, and we believe she would do best in a home with another dog. She appears to be 2-3 years old, she is spayed, up-to-date on all vaccinations and prevention, and heartworm negative. Addie needs a patient family willing to work with her, to continue showing her that the world is a safe place. If you have a tennis ball and a cozy spot on your sofa, Addie might be your perfect match! A Note on her Breed: We’ve consulted a few breed identification programs, which suggested a mix of Feist, Rat Terrier, and Staffordshire Terrier. However, since these IDs can be a bit of a guessing game, we can't say for certain. What we do know is that she is a 100% good girl. ***********IMPORTANT ADOPTION INFORMATION************* Addie is located in South Mississippi, with transport available (for an additional fee) to approved adopters in several Northeast towns where she is posted .

Adoption Donation  $ 599   Located: RI (Transportation costs included to the Northeast , plz ask for more details) Age: approx  2 years  old Weight: est.  25 lbs.   Meet Maxine: A Special Girl Looking for Her Forever Family Maxine is a beautiful 2-year-old terrier mix with a remarkable spirit and so much love to give. Born blind, Maxine has never let her disability define her. In fact, anyone who meets her quickly realizes that she doesn't see herself as any different from any other dog. She confidently navigates her home, yard, and even stairs with ease, embracing life with joy, curiosity, and determination. A year ago, Maxine thought she had found her forever home. She was deeply loved by her family, and they loved her right back. Unfortunately, despite working with trainers and trying every possible solution, Maxine developed an irresistible urge to chase the family's cat. When their veterinarian determined that the cat's stress levels were seriously affecting her health, her family was faced with an impossible decision. With heavy hearts, they returned Maxine to our rescue, hoping we could help her find the perfect home where she could truly thrive. Now Maxine is waiting for her second chance. This sweet girl is happiest when she's surrounded by people who love her. She's accustomed to having her family nearby and enjoys being part of daily life. While she is crate-trained when needed, she'd much rather be spending time with her humans, exploring the world by their side. Maxine loves adventure. Walks and hikes are among her favorite things, and she would be thrilled to join an active family who enjoys spending time outdoors. A fenced yard would be wonderful, but an adopter who enjoys regular walks and outdoor activities would make her just as happy. She gets along well with other dogs and would enjoy having a playful canine companion. However, she would do best with dogs who appreciate an energetic friend rather than senior dogs looking for peace and quiet. Because of her strong prey drive, Maxine cannot live with cats. In her foster home, Maxine has done wonderfully with children who are old enough to understand and respect that she is blind. She has no food aggression and no significant behavioral issues. Occasionally, she may bark when startled, so a quieter home rather than apartment living would likely be the best fit for her. At 25 pounds, Maxine is spayed, up to date on all vaccinations, and in excellent health. More than anything, she is a gentle, affectionate soul who deserves the security and love of a family who will cherish her forever. Maxine has already experienced both love and loss in her young life. Through it all, she has remained trusting, happy, and full of hope. Somewhere out there is the family she's been waiting for, a family who will see beyond her blindness and recognize the extraordinary dog she truly is. Could that family be yours? If interested in adopting Maxine, please fill out an application on our website  www.fohari.org  and email my foster parent for more information:  kyleallyn1112@yahoo.com Please verify the location and readiness of this dog with us.  Because we save lives from various locations through out the United States, some dogs may not be in New England yet, nor ready for immediate adoption.   Our adoption application can be found here: https://fohari.org/application/  Our Adoption Process:   Go to our website and select the animal you are interested in.

Adoption Donation   $  499                Located:     TX    (Transportation costs included to the Northeast , plz ask for more details )    Age: approx   1   years old     Weight:  35 lbs Luna is a sweet, friendly young dog, approximately 1 year old. Since rescuing her, I’ve made sure she’s received all necessary medical care: • Up to date on all vaccinations • Dewormed • On flea prevention • Given a heartworm prevention pill • Heartworm test: negative •  Luna has a loving personality and a lot of playful energy. She does well with other dogs, but my dogs are older and easily become overwhelmed by her energy, which makes long-term fostering difficult in my home.

Boba was found behind a dumpster in Texas and we relocated to Rhode Island. Unfortunately, with a toddler and working two jobs, we are unable to provide the best care and attention to her.
