__________
Fredrick (Fred) has safely made it to Wisconsin and is settling in beautifully with his foster family. This 2-year-old, approximately 45-pound Basset Hound/Beagle mix (best guess) has a short, sturdy build and classic low-rider legs. He is an easy-going, friendly guy who loves spending time with people and enjoys both relaxing indoors and playing outside.
Fred is dog and kid friendly, though he has not yet been cat-tested. He is potty trained, crate trained, and continues to make steady progress on his leash manners. Fred enjoys attention, cuddles, and spending quality time with his people. He has already shown that he gets along well with other dogs and enjoys playing with his foster sibling.
Fred is neutered, fully recovered from his heartworm treatment that he got in Arkansas, and ready to share his love with a forever family. He is affectionate, playful, and easy-going, making him a wonderful companion for the right home.
Fred is approximately 2 years old, weighs about 45 pounds, and is ready for a fresh start with a family who will give him the love and care he deserves.

ADOPTION PROCESS:
1.) Apply: Fill out an adoption application completely and submit all necessary documents.
2.) Application Decision: approved applicants will be notified via phone call and email.
3.) Foster-to-Adopt Trial Period: After approval, you have the opportunity to do a meet and greet and bring your dog home! You get a 5-day foster-to-adopt (FTA) period to make sure it's the right fit.
4.) Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.
5.) Home Visit: After the adoption process, we conduct a home visit either in person or via Zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.
6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. The procedure MUST be done at HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI, or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, we will reimburse $150 once we receive proof of the procedure. We recommend spay/neuter around 6 months old.
**Note: Adoptions are not considered final until the dog is neutered/spayed if applicable**
