FOSTER-TO-ADOPT HOMES NEEDED!!
***Please apply at https://www.fetchandreleash.ca/adoption-info#adoption-form***
We would love to welcome Tripp into the Fetch + Releash family April 14th (subject to change). In order for Tripp to come into our care, we need a committed family. As a foster-to-adopt family, you'll be expected to take him home on his arrival date. You will then have two weeks to get to know your new furry house guest before committing to adoption. At the end of two weeks, if you choose not to move forward with adoption, we simply ask that you continue to provide a safe and loving home until their new forever family can be found.
Each bio was created by our rescue partners based on their interactions with the dogs. Fetch + Releash has a full disclosure policy however we cannot guarantee a dog against parasites or diseases, nor can we guarantee a dog's nature/behaviour. Many of these dogs are coming directly from the shelter and so you should expect there to be a transitional period. Be prepared to deal with common issues like potty training, leash walking, and socialization. Cat and kid safety assessments are often based on their personality and not necessarily on actual interactions.
Where possible, the majority of vetting will be completed prior to coming to Canada, however, foster-to-adopt families may be required to travel to our partner vet in Mississauga, ON for further vet care.
During your foster-to-adopt trial, you'll receive the support of a Fetch + Releash mentor to help you through the transition and answer any questions or concerns you may have.
Foster-to-adopt families will be required to pay a $200 deposit on the adoption fee and sign our foster-to-adopt waiver in advance. If you choose not to adopt, your $200 will be refunded to you within 30 days of your dog being adopted into a new family provided you see your pup through to adoption. If you choose not to see your dog through to adoption, you will forfeit your deposit.
Foster-to-adopt families will be expected to provide their own supplies. Visit https://www.fetchandreleash.ca/adoption-info for more info on mandatory supplies.

Tripp / Male / 8 months / 41 pounds / Lab Mix / Great Family Dog / Fun Loving Pup / Medium-High Puppy Energy / from Tennessee
Meet Tripp, your typical fun-loving lab pup, surrendered like so many others, yet finding safety in the care of our partner. This unwanted black pup has blossomed into a friendly, eager-to-please companion, ready for any adventure life throws his way.
Already displaying promising traits, Tripp is great in the car and walks well on leash. He's crate trained, although patience is needed with house training as he transitions to indoor life, a new concept for him. But true to his breed, Tripp is both lovable and loyal, brimming with untapped potential.
Currently, he shares a kennel with another dog, showcasing his sociable nature. Whether as a solo companion or alongside another furry friend, Tripp is adaptable and ready to bring joy to any household. However, if he becomes a solo dog, continued socialization is key, ensuring he maintains his love for both humans and fellow canines.
His new family must be committed to his ongoing training, helping him adjust to his new life in Canada. Play-based training will not only reinforce commands but also strengthen the bond between Tripp and his new family. With his sweet and loveable temperament, he'll thrive in a home with dog-savvy children, although he's still learning boundaries like refraining from jumping up when greeting.
While not fully tested with cats, Tripp's exposure to them suggests possible compatibility. He's curious and wants to play with them, so he would require supervision and set boundaries. A dog savvy cat would be best as there would be an adjustment period. As he continues to grow, he'll adapt to any type of home, provided he receives ample opportunities for walks and bathroom breaks throughout the day. You should expect to provide Tripp with at least two 30 minute walks per day as he is a growing pup with energy to burn. Ensuring his physical and mental needs are met will aid in keeping a curious pup out of mischief.
Tripp is more than just a dog; he's a delightful companion waiting to steal the hearts of those who open their home to him. With his infectious energy and unwavering loyalty, Tripp promises to be the perfect addition to any loving family, ready to embark on countless adventures together.
As a condition of the adoption contract, Tripp’s new family will be required to attend and complete a basic obedience class at their own cost (proof required).
