Story
Meet Annie ❤️ Annie is a 10 year old German Shepherd mix with one of the most loyal hearts you’ll ever meet. When her owner passed away, Annie stayed faithfully by her side for four days until help arrived. She was then taken to a high-kill shelter, where her future was uncertain — until one of our amazing fosters stepped up to give her a second chance. Annie is the definition of a good girl. She’s great with dogs, cats, and kids. She’s potty, crate, and leash trained, but also does wonderfully free roaming and isn’t destructive. Annie enjoys quiet naps, gentle walks, and just being near her people. She’s calm, gentle, and carries herself with the kind of grace that only a wise old soul can. A fenced yard is required for Annie’s safety, as she enjoys exploring and soaking up the fresh air. 📍 Located in Lexington, Kentucky 💰 Adoption fee: $250 Annie is fully vetted and ready to find a family who will love her for the rest of her days. If you think you can give this sweet senior the happy ending she deserves, please message our Facebook page or email fureverbrookehaven@gmail.com to apply.

Story
· 💌 A Love Letter to My Forever Family 💌 —from Wolfie Dear My People, When I first came to FairyTails in September, I didn’t look like much. I was bald, scabby, sore, and hurting so badly that walking felt impossible. No one even knew what kind of dog I was. I didn’t know either — I just knew I needed help. And somehow… they didn’t give up on me. They believed in me when I couldn’t. They healed my skin, filled my belly, and showed me that hands can be gentle and beds can be soft. They taught me that toys are for playing (Kongs are my favorite), and that love doesn’t always hurt. Slowly, my fur grew back. My strength returned. And one day, I looked in the mirror and realized something incredible: ✨ I’m not broken. I’m beautiful. ✨ Now I’m ready for you. I’m dreaming of a home where someone smiles the second they see me. A family who loves shepherd snuggles, belly rubs, and quiet moments together. A place where I’m not just a dog… but your dog. I don’t need much. Just a warm spot to rest, a few squeaky toys (I can be gentle… most of the time), and a heart that has room for a boy who’s already learned how precious love can be. I’ve already lived through my first miracle — being rescued. Now I’m waiting patiently for my second one… ✨ Finding you. ✨ With all the love in my healed heart, Wolfie 50 lbs of shepherd-mix wonder Officially healthy, incredibly handsome, and very ready to belong. ✨ Wolfie’s journey is living proof that love heals, hope matters, and every life is worth saving. ✨ We think he’d be great with kids he’s good with other dogs. Not sure on cats but we don’t believe he’d hurt one but might chase if they ran. He's about 50 lbs. does great on a leash at K9 Training. He’s still has playful puppy energy. Is housetrained. 📩 To adopt Wolfie: Please email fairytailspetadoptions@yahoo.com to obtain an application or submit an Adopt A Pet inquiry. We will email you an application promptly. If you do not receive an application, please check your spam folder or call us at 859-744-7729. We truly believe Wolfie’s story might be one of the most powerful we’ve ever shared. It’s a reminder that love transforms, healing is possible, and every life is worth saving. 💙 But that’s not all — we’re thrilled to announce something special: Wolf is the star of his very own children's book! 🐺 ➡️ Books are available now (book only orders here👉🏻 https://a.co/d/ilxCzXN).

Bella is beautiful dog who loves to walk on leash. She was dumped by a rescuer who moved out of my trailer so I had to give her a new name. She will make a wonderful dog for a family. Must have a large fenced yard to play in. I will have to have vet check to see if she has been spayed or needs to be.

Story
Hi everyone! My name is Jada and I’d like to take a second to introduce myself. It pains me to say it, but the humans have told me I’m now a senior dog. I know, it sounds like I’m old, but I swear I still have some spunk left! I love to hang out with my people and I’m happiest when I’m with them. I love to go for walks, but I don’t mind if we snuggle on the couch and eat some popcorn while we watch TV either. Cats are a lot of fun to chase, but the humans said I shouldn’t do that, so I am looking for a home without them because they are just too tempting! I can be a little selective about the dogs I like too, so if you have any other dogs at home, I will need to meet them first and make sure we can be friends before I come to live with you. Could I be a perfect fit for your family? Give my human friends at the Adoption Center a call at 859-873-5491 to learn more about me or to schedule an appointment to meet me!
