Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application   HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see   HERE   Age: 10 months (as of 3/15/25) Weight: 30 lbs (as of 03/7/25) This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Meet Frita, a young, sweet and friendly canine companion. She's the embodiment of gentleness, always ready to share a cuddle or two. Frita is not just about cuddles, she's also playful and smart. Her intelligence shines through in her quick learning abilities. She loves spending time with her people, showing her loyalty and affection in countless ways. Frita is a bundle of joy, her playful antics will surely brighten up your day. Her gentle demeanor and smartness make her an ideal pet for any family. Frita is working on house training and is doing great when put out regularly and will use pads if there is inclement weather. She is crate trained but needs some work on her leash skills. She is a smart girl and basic group training classes is recommended to help her learn commands, socialize with other humans and dogs, as well as build that fur-ever bond with you! Adopting Frita means bringing home a friend who's loyal, affectionate, and endlessly entertaining. She is waiting to fill your home with love and happiness. Medical Note:  Frita came into an Arkansas shelter with a history of a trauma to her back right leg.  The shelter coordinated a surgery for her in January 2025 with a local veterinarian.  As of her transport date to Rhode Island in March 2025, Frita's recovery has been uneventful and she is observed to be fully weight bearing most of the time.  Healing may continue for 12-18 months post-surgery.  Continued appropriate exercise, joint supplements, and keeping the dog lean are recommended indefinitely, and, as with any traumatic injury and/or history of orthopedic injury to maximize the dog's recovery and ongoing quality of life, additional treatment may be recommended in the future.  Prescreened adopters will have the opportunity to speak with the SOS Medical Director should they have any questions or concerns.  More general information on this procedure can be found here:  https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/femoral-head-ostectomy-fho-in-dogs An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see   HERE   for more information about this. To apply for this dog, fill out an adoption application on our website:   Adoption Application - SOS Animal Rescue League in Rhode Island (sosarl.org)   **Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 21, 2025, 5:28 pm

Adoption Donation   $599              Located:    MS     (Transportation costs included to the Northeast , plz ask for more details )    Age: approx    1 year & 9 months old     Weight: 34  lbs Bonnie is a sweet girl who likes walks & doggie friends!  If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application on our website  www.fohari.org  and email my foster parent for more information:  friendsoha@yahoo.com Please verify the location and readiness of this dog with us.  Because we save lives from various locations through out the United States, some dogs may not be in New England yet, nor ready for immediate adoption.   Our adoption application can be found here: https://fohari.org/application/  Our Adoption Process:   Go to our website and select the animal you are interested in. ALL animals are in foster homes as we do NOT have a  shelter where you can visit. Some animals are in foster care in New England, and some are located in other states. If the initials following the animals name are a state, then that is the state where the animal is located. If initials are not a state, then those are the initials of the foster home outside of New England and you will not be able to meet the animal ahead of time. Complete our online application You will be contacted by phone or email by the foster parent  or a member of our adoption team and will have the opportunity to find out more about the animal, and ask any questions that you have to ensure the animal is a good fit for your household. If the animal is local, you can meet the animal, but you would not be able to take the dog home until you are approved to adopt.  From our end, we will check references and schedule a home visit.  If you live in an apartment, or a condo, we will need to verify permission to own the animal from your landlord or condo board. Please let your vet’s office and references know we will be contacting them. If your  references are positive, we will schedule a home visit by a volunteer. Please try to accommodate the home visit volunteer as most  have busy schedules. Delays in the visit will result in a delay in the adoption. Once you are approved, you will receive an e-mail with your  adoption contract attached. This e-mail will have details about pick up, the balance of the adoption fee that is owed, etc. Please email your signed & witnessed contract and pay your adoption fee in full, and for any animals located out of state, you will be contacted for details about transport to New England. Once you have paid your adoption fee in full and sent back your contract, you can make arrangement to pick up your animal from the foster home or from transport depending on where the animal is located. Please bring a harness, collar, ID tag and leash when you are picking up the dog unless otherwise instructed by the foster parent. Our extensive approval process is intended to ensure the best fit between our animals and adopters. Friends of Homeless Animals (FOHA) reserves the right to deny any adoption application with or without disclosure of cause. Your adoption fee helps to cover the cost of all age appropriate vetting and transportation. FOHARI.ORG makes no explicit or implicit guarantees in reference to the health, temperament and/or the breed of the animal. The animal is adopted ‘as is’, and the adopter assumes all responsibility for treatment of any and all existing conditions or any other conditions of physical or temperament changes that may occur. FOHARI.ORG will provide the animal with the basic vaccines, heart worm test and sterilization of dogs and cats before adoption if the age and current health of the animal permits. While FOHARI.ORG makes every effort to place only healthy animals, FOHARI.ORG cannot guarantee the health of any animal, and shall not be held responsible for any medical expenses that may be incurred. Rescuer will provide information received from the veterinarian exam, observations on the temperament of the animal and a best guess of the breed. Friends of Homeless Animals Inc.
