Story

Foxy is a sweet beautiful little sweetie, about 40 lbs, who loves to play. Very dog-friendly. If your dog is looking for a friend, she's your girl! Foxy loves stuffy toys, playing tug-of-war with a rope, and playing fetch (although she's still learning to bring it back!) She's very intelligent and learns quickly. She is shy with new people, but if you're patient and give her treats you'll be all set. Foxy was found by one of our rescue volunteers in a trap! Her other dog friends were waiting with her and very concerned. The whole group was taken in by Friends Fur Life Rescue and they are getting training to be the best pups they can be. Foxy has been living in a foster home with large and small dogs, two school-age children, and a cat, and she's doing great! She hasn't quite made friends with the cat though yet lol. Foxy does well in the car, sleeps well in her crate at night, and knows to potty outside. She is still working on leash training, and she's coming out of her shell. Will you show her what a real family is like? We would love to speak with you! We can drive this pup to your area! If you like this cutie please send us an inquiry here and we'll give you a call and video chat with the pup!

All is included in the adoption fee. YES we also adopt to CANADA! Thank you! We're looking forward to your inquiry!

Story

Hi👋🏼 I'm the newest pup on the block, Porter! I'm on the lookout for my forever home! 🏡 and I've got a lot of love to give ❤️ I’m just under a year old and around 75lbs. I'm housebroken 🚽 and I'm getting better with my crate, but sometimes I get a little anxious when left alone 😥. I'm a playful guy who loves a good game of tug-of-war 🧸. My foster parents are teaching me "drop it," so I'm learning to share. I'm not too interested in food, but I do love attention and playtime 🥰. On walks, I get a little too excited and tend to pull on the leash 🐕‍🦺, but I'm sure with some training, I'll learn to walk nicely. I get along with other dogs 🐶, but I can be a bit assertive and need reminders to respect their space. I haven't met any cats 🐈 yet. Ideally, I'd love a home with an active family who can keep me busy and provide plenty of exercise 🎾. A fenced-in yard would be amazing, and having another dog buddy would be a dream come true 😍. If you're looking for a fun-loving, energetic companion, I might just be the dog for you! 😊

Rochester, NY

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Ranger, the intelligent and active Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and boundless energy. This handsome boy is a fast learner and has mastered essential commands like sit, down, wait, and shake. He's so clever that he tackled a level 3 puzzle on his first try! Ranger is a well-behaved and well-trained pup, making him a pleasure to have around the house. He's house trained, crate trained, and shows no signs of destructiveness indoors. However, he does experience some separation anxiety when his human leaves the house, which is why he's kept in his crate during errands. But don't worry, when he's playing in the backyard with his furry friend, he's perfectly content and doesn't exhibit any separation anxiety. Ranger is an active boy who loves going on walks, and he'll gladly accompany you on all your outdoor adventures. While Ranger is intelligent and affectionate, he can be barrier reactive, meaning he may react when he encounters certain barriers or boundaries. Patience and positive reinforcement training can help him overcome this behavior. This is very typical behavior for both breeds and he absolutely has to be adopted into a Mali/GSD knowledgeable family/ Ranger was in pretty rough shape when rescued and the vet initially thought he had an intestinal disease. Nothing was definitively diagnosed but the vet believes he has small intestinal issues. He is on a folate vitamin daily and will just need annual lab work and a high quality RAW FOOD diet. Ranger's charm and charisma shine through in the photos and videos provided, capturing his playful and loving nature. If you're looking for a smart, active, and affectionate companion, Ranger is the perfect match. Give him the love and care he deserves, and he'll reward you with loyalty and companionship like no other. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story

Raven is my name and kind of like a raven, I am a 'loner'... except for the puppies i had when I arrived at the rescue... I was saved by a trapper on the streets, they weren't even there to save ME that day, but they did!!! I am obviously a beautiful girl, big and solid as well as black and brindly. I am a loving girl, in my own way... i lived on the streets for who knows how long and I honestly am not a cuddly girl or even a sit by your feet dog, YET... I have all kinds of love to give, you can see in my eyes that I have always dreamed of someone with the patience to love me for who I am and who I can be!! I am great on a leash and do love walking around and exploring. I am good with other dogs and likely would do best with another dog who is calm and confident with his/her family. I am so so ready for you, I have the shepherd double coat so I will shed in your house, must have a great vacuum cleaner and tolerance of hair :) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
