Story
Adoption Donation  $399 Located: New England   Age: approx   7-9 years old Weight: 11 lbs.   Mark Anthony and his siblings were rescued from a breeder, where they spent years living in crates. Because of his difficult past, he is still learning what it means to feel safe, loved, and part of a family. Mark Anthony will need a patient and understanding home that is willing to give her the time and love he deserves.  He is recovering from an ear infection and will need continued care as he heals. He has had a hematoma in one of his ears, which caused it to shrink and thicken. He is working on housetraining. He will sometimes use pee pads, but accidents should be expected as he continues to learn. He is very skittish and scared, but has started to accept love and is slowly learning that people can be kind. He is considered a flight risk and should always be kept on a leash or in a fenced yard. He can be fairly vocal when he wants something but is overall very shy. Mark Anthony is very reserved. He prefers relaxing in his bed or snuggling up beside you on the couch. He needs someone who is home often, patient, and willing to gently show him how wonderful life as a beloved family member can be.   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: ebfosters1@gmail.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.

Story
Adoption Donation   $399 Located: New England Age: approx  7-9 years old Weight: 11 lbs. Octavia and her siblings were rescued from a breeder, where they spent years living in crates. Because of her difficult past, she is still learning what it means to feel safe, loved, and part of a family. Octavia will need a patient and understanding home that is willing to give her the time and love she deserves.  She is recovering from an ear infection and skin infection and will need continued care as she heals. She has had multiple hematomas in her ears, which caused them to shrink and thicken and become more susceptible to ear infections. She is working on housetraining. She will sometimes use pee pads, but accidents should be expected as she continues to learn and recover from the many liters she had. She is still very skittish and scared, but has started to accept love and is slowly learning that people can be kind. She is considered a flight risk and should always be kept on a leash or in a fenced yard. She is fairly vocal when she feels she isn’t getting enough attention. Octavia is energetic and playful. She loves being active and is beginning to discover how much fun life outside a crate can be. She needs someone who is home often, patient, and willing to gently show her how wonderful life as a beloved family member can be.  She may benefit from a home with another (submissive) dog.  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:  ebfosters1@gmail.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.

Story
Meet Waffle, a two-year-old, 17-pound Maltipoo mix with a big personality, an even bigger heart, and some wonderfully quirky ways of showing it! This fluffy little guy is happiest when he has toys to play with, a yard to zoom around in, and furry friends by his side. But he is searching for a very specific kind of family! So keep reading to learn all the special quirks of Waffle! Watch Waffle's video to fast track getting to know him, then come back to read more! https://youtu.be/7ozqhizvRgQ Waffle LOVES toys and is especially obsessed with fetch. Give him a ball and some room to run, and you'll see just how fast and athletic this little guy can be! He loves chasing toys, running around the yard, digging, sniffing, and playing. He's not a couch potato — Waffle wants to have FUN! And Waffle is a total social butterfly when it comes to his furry friends. **He is DOG FRIENDLY and CAT FRIENDLY!** In fact, having another dog in his forever home is extremely important for Waffle. He is much happier and more confident with a canine buddy around, especially one close to his size and with a similar playful style. He loves having someone to romp around with and looks to his dog friends for confidence. Waffle also genuinely loves cats and has successfully lived with them. Dog-savvy cats who enjoy having a playful dog around could be a wonderful match for him. If you're looking for a little dog who can have both canine and feline siblings, Waffle is your guy! With his people, Waffle is an absolute sweetheart once he knows you. He loves attention, cuddles, following his favorite person around, and being included in the fun. He can be vocal and reactive when he's unsure, particularly around unfamiliar people and dogs on leash, so his family will need to understand his quirks and help him navigate situations that feel overwhelming. Because of this, Waffle needs an **experienced, patient owner** who isn't looking for a perfectly polished dog and will happily accept him for all his little Waffle-isms. He needs someone who will give him structure, clear boundaries, continued leash training, and plenty of time to settle into his new world. Waffle would do best with **older, respectful kids around 10+** and a relatively calm home without lots of unfamiliar visitors coming and going. He needs a securely fenced physical yard and is **not suited for an apartment or condo** because of his vocal nature and need for outdoor space. Waffle may have a few quirks, but that's part of what makes him Waffle! He's playful, affectionate, incredibly entertaining, dog-friendly, cat-friendly, and full of potential. Give this little guy his toys, his fetch ball, his dog buddy, a secure yard, and a person who understands him — and Waffle will give you his whole heart right back. For any serious adopters we would love to chat with you to see if Waffle may be your perfect match! Apply today to adopt Waffle! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/6986372eb92150fb190513d9 Questions?
