Story
Phil is looking for a very special understanding home! This 1 year old Frenchie was surrendered to a local shelter when his owners couldn't meet his needs. We have had extensive diagnostics done to get to the bottom of his chronic diarrhea issues and he does have fairly severe IBD which will require lifelong care to manage- medications and a strict prescription diet. He's improved but it's going to be a trial and error process under the care of vets because of the severity of is issue. We are waiting on a recheck and further results but he is suspected to have some chronic irritable bowel type issues, and already improved greatly on a special prescription diet and medications. We are hoping to find little Phil a local home where he can be monitored and follow up with our vet. Phil can be a little standoffish at first and undersocialized but a fun playful puppy once he bonds. He's at that adolescent stage where he can be a bit of a brat testing boundaries at times and needs some training and an adult household to continue to work with him. No kitties for him, and he can be choosy about his dog friends at times. Please submit an application to meet him Primary Color: Tan Age: 1yrs 9mths 1wks

Story
Meet Tofurkey, our awkward little holiday miracle. This ~2 year old bully (exotic microbully technically?:() was bred and born to suffer, but is a complete sweetheart and so happy for any attention. By the nature of his breeding, he can barely breath or walk- bad hips, deformed front legs, narrowed nostrils and an elongated soft palate, and gets winded and overheated easily. And as if that's not bad enough then he had his ears chopped off for cosmetic reasons. His owner was arrested and he ended up in a local animal control dripping blood from a prolapsed urethra (ouch! another common issue in these little gremlins) that needed emergency surgery plus a long overdue neuter to prevent any more of him from existing. He's getting surgery soon to make it easier to breathe, and will need a home that can stay on top of his medical needs longterm. He can run and walk awkwardly but does best on softer surfaces as he sometimes drags his back legs. Tofurkey is stressed in the shelter and would love to find a foster or adoptive home soon... please submit an application to open your home to him. He's 40lbs full grown but with a long low build. Primary Color: Chocolate Age: 2yrs 3mths 3wks

Story
**Please note this is pet is currently out of town pet but we will transport this pet to NJ for you when adopted. All fees listed include transport fees.** Calling all singles - ready to mingle! I'm Major Payne, a good boy who is looking for love - and I mean from you, my one and only. Sure, I can be a bit of a player, but I promise I'm worth it. You see, I'm not really a fan of other pups - I'm a jealous guy and like to have all your attention to myself. I'd much rather be the star of your show than share the spotlight with another four-legged friend. But, if you're looking for a loyal companion who will stick by your side through thick and thin, I'm your guy. I'm house-trained and have learned all the basic commands, so I'm basically an ideal roommate. So, if you're looking for a furry friend who is going to be your ride-or-die, I'm Major Payne, and I'm ready to take you out for the best walk of your life! Major Payne is about 20 pounds and we think he is around 4 years old. He came to us as an finder surrender after 30 days of not being able to find his owner. I don't mind walking past other dogs, but don't let me stop to chit chat. Interested in becoming a forever home for Major Payne? Fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we don't go any further without an application. Find more adoptable pets, news and information on Instagram @friendswithfourpaws or our Facebook page Friends with Four Paws . We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them and you. Please do not submit an application if you are not serious about adopting. We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and appreciate you working with us.For immediate consideration, please attach your application to the initial inquiry to help us expedite the process. Our adoption fee is $850. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses. All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public in Oklahoma. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where he/she is kept for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested, we make arrangements for transport. If a dog is already in foster care in NYC/NJ, an adopter will be put in touch with the foster home AFTER an application is being processed. Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK/EWR💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet Klein💚 💙 Klein’s News Account: @klein__55 1⃣ Health Condition * Spayed. * Microchipped and heartworm negative. 2⃣ Rescue Story * Klein was rescued from a slaughterhouse in Jeongeup along with her four siblings when they were very young. She stayed at the Jeongeup shelter for about a year. However, when she and her siblings were placed on the euthanasia list, Adogs stepped in and saved them, including Klein. 3⃣ Basic Information * With People: Tends to be quite shy. So when she first arrived at her foster home, she was wary and scared of her foster parents. Now, she feels more comfortable at home and does not avoid them when they approach and sit by her. Wags her tail, whines in affection, and approaches! Seems to rely more on her foster mom in new environments. When there are strangers around, she’ll approach the women first to sniff them, but avoids men and runs away. If a stranger gives her a treat, she’ll take it and run away to eat it in her own space. Met young children at a dog-friendly cafe, but didn’t show interest in them. * With Dogs: Feels more comfortable around dogs than people. Approaches other dogs wagging her tail, but only sniffs them gently and politely — is a very mannered and gentle dog. Becomes more social and greets familiar dogs more actively. * With Cats: Tends to chase cats she encounters on walks and suddenly pulls on the leash. Caution is needed. * Separation Anxiety: While she sometimes plays quietly and sleeps well, there are other times when she barks, howls, chews on electrical cords, or destroys things. Still tries to open all the doors and even chews on her crate. Since it's hard to tell what triggers her separation anxiety to be better or worse on any given days, we are constantly trying different methods to find a solution. * Potty Training: Indoor potty training is still in progress, with about a 70% success rate on pads. Prefers to relieve herself outdoors and always poops outside. * Hygiene: Doesn't enjoy baths or brushing, but tolerates them well. Is still a bit scared of the dryer and tends to run away to avoid it. For nail trimming, one more person is needed to hold her while another trims her nails. Her guardian is currently introducing her to tooth brushing gently with a soft gauze and rubber toothbrush. * Walks: Pulls hard on the leash when she sees cats. Has gained confidence and has become stubborn on walks, so she’s being retrained. * Car Sickness: Doesn’t get car sick but is scared of bright lights like neon signs at night, preferring to be held by a person for comfort. * Never shows possessive, defensive, or aggressive biting behavior. * Occasionally whines briefly when her guardian comes home or comes back into a room. * Loves sleeping, treats, and going for walks. Enjoys lying on the grass and relaxing during walks outside. Likes biting hard objects like charger cables, plastic hangers, pencils, shoes, etc. Enjoys lying on the couch when her foster parents are not around. Likes being warm, so she enjoys wearing clothes. Even sleeps much more comfortably when wearing clothes! * Is scared when strangers approach or when she hears loud noises. Is frightened by neon signs and bright lights when riding in a car at night. Dislikes sitting on cold floors. Is afraid to go into a small and dark space, so she's reluctant to go into kennel or doggy house.
