Story
https://foha.org/pet/lambert2021/ ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Hi, I’m Lambert — a big mutt with an even bigger heart! If you believe that size equals love, then I’m your guy. I may look like a gentle giant (because I am), but I also have a playful side and a lot of curiosity about the world around me. Whether it’s going for a walk or learning something new, I’ll be right by your side, ready for adventure — especially if treats are involved! I’m a calm, affectionate boy who enjoys exploring and staying close to my people. I’m also a bit of a neat freak — I take pride in keeping my space clean and am fully housebroken. I can be startled if woken suddenly, so I appreciate gentle handling and quiet routines. Because of my size and strength, I’d do best in a home without small children, ideally with an experienced adopter who understands big, loving dogs like me. HOW AM I WITH DOGS: I’ve done well with other dogs at FOHA who share my calm demeanor and would likely enjoy the company of a like-minded canine friend. HOW AM I WITH CATS: A little too overly interested in cats. I would probably do best in a home without cats. HOW AM I WITH KIDS: Best suited for an adult-only home or one with older, dog-savvy teens due to my size, strength, and startle reflex when sleeping. I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS: I know sit and I’m eager to learn more, especially when treats are involved! MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: I’m fully housebroken and take pride in keeping my area clean. With a consistent routine and calm environment, I’ll thrive in your home. THINGS I LIKE: Walks, treats, gentle affection, clean spaces, calm environments, staying close to my people, and learning new things. THINGS I DISLIKE: Being startled while I sleep, loud or chaotic settings, and sudden movements. I do best with a peaceful home and confident guidance. FOHA ADOPTION POLICIES AND PROCESS https://foha.org/pet-adoption/adoption-policies/ ADOPTION FEE INCLUDES: Spay/neuter, vaccines (rabies, distemper & Bordetella), 1-month access to Petcademy for training and behavior support, slip lead leash, 1 bag starter food, 1 month flea/tick & heartworm preventatives, diagnostic testing, and additional medical procedures as recommended by our vet. Since I have reached my golden years, I am eligible for the Senior Care Plan. If you have additional questions, please use our Contact Us form and select Senior Care Plan Questions.

Story
Carrots is an owner give up to our rescue. Below is the information her owner gave us initially. I have had Carrots for almost two years now. She has been the most amazing friend I could have asked for. She rarely barks and only lets out an occasional whine if she needs to go out or is wanting some attention. She’s a well behaved for a dog that lives her life with me in a small dorm and can only go out to play fetch or go for a walk when I’m not at class or work. She needs better. In general, she has been amazing for the hand she’s been dealt. I actually couldn’t be more grateful for how well she’s treated me as she’s grown to be near a full two years old!! I am having to part with her because she is still a puppy, and I’m a Junior in college struggling to work and commute on weekends when I have to, and give her the attention she deserves. She’s trained well. She sits on command, she can stay if you ask, she’s house trained, and she’s comfortable with her kennel if needed. She uses a harness for walks and does great. She was trained to walk on the left of you and she’s usually pretty good about staying focused. She has started the process of being an ESA certified dog but has not rec'd her second certification. Her previous owner said that she was around a child once and growled so we do not recommend her with small children. She has never been around cats so we cannot say whether she will or will not be okay arounds feline friends. She would make a great family member for an active family. If you would like to add Carrots to your home, please message us and we will send you an application. Carrots is being fostered in MS but included in your adoption fee is transport to a location near you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal friendly transport on the road! The adoption fee includes her medical for a health certificate and transport to you. We look forward to hearing from you soon!
