Story
Sayla is a spayed female pit bull mix, about 3 years old and 40 pounds, who came to us as a stray in July of this year. She is housebroken, dog and cat friendly, and full of joyful young-dog energy, but after some exercise, she is just as happy to curl up beside you and relax. We shared her sleepover at a volunteer’s home so people could see what we see, a wonderful dog who is more than ready for a home of her own. Heartbreakingly, only one person has asked to meet her. Sayla was amazing with them and their kids, but it simply wasn’t the right time for her to go home. We have to say the hard part out loud: in the shelter world, Sayla is considered a “less-adoptable dog.” Not because she has done anything wrong, and not because she has less love to give. On paper, and in person, Sayla is incredible. She is smart, attentive, knows her basic commands, rides well in the car, walks beautifully on a leash, and is ready for any adventure. She is happy to meet new people and does wonderfully mingling in public. So why is she still waiting? Sayla is a Pit Bull mix, or at least we think she is. Her breed is still only a guess. She isn’t a puppy, fluffy, doodley, a cool color, or a trendy “designer” breed. And when people walk past her kennel, she can look scared or nervous, even though the moment she comes out, she becomes the happiest, curious girl. Many dogs are completely different when they are stuck in a kennel in a noisy shelter than they are outside of it. That is why we always encourage visitors to ask to spend time with a dog in an adoption room, where their true personality can shine. Sayla has been waiting for someone to look beyond the kennel, beyond the label, and see the loyal, loving best friend standing right in front of them. If you are searching for a new best friend, please come meet Sayla. We promise she will not disappoint, and she will repay your kindness with a lifetime of love and countless tail wags. You can meet Sayla, or any of our adoptable animals, any day except Wednesday between 12:00 and 4:00.

Story
Meet Ziva, a 5-year-old Pit Bull/Terrier mix who is basically a 56-pound ball of pure love. She would be a great "first dog" since she is past the puppy phase and has a solid foundation of good behaviors! She lives for human attention, loves to cuddle, and has a way of making everyone she meets feel special. If you are looking for a dog who will immediately become your absolute best friend, she is the one. She is incredibly easygoing and fits right into the flow of everyday life. Ziva has a perfect medium energy level, meaning she is always down for a fun walk but equally happy to crash on the couch with you for a movie marathon. She is good with children and great with other dogs. She gets along with both men and women and is pretty quiet. She is currently being fostered with 5 other dogs, so could easily fit into a home with multiple dogs, but would also be fine as a single. She loves stuffed toys and shares with her house mates. She appears to have a low prey drive and has met a couple outdoor cats and was fine, so we *think* she would do fine in a cat household with a proper introduction. Ziva has a very eager to please personality, so should make any additional training a breeze! She is potty trained and will even go to the door to let you know she has to go. She also knows how to use a doggie door. She is great in the car, especially if head scratches are involved! Ziva is just a sweet, loyal soul looking for a family to shower with affection. If you have room in your heart and your home for a total sweetheart, she is ready to meet you. If you are interested in adopting there is an application below: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PDAR/Dog Note: She is currently being treated for heartworms. Most of our dogs are rescued from high-intake shelters in other states. Your adoption fee covers: spay/neuter (if old enough), transport fees getting the dogs from Texas to our fosters homes here (that ALONE is $200-$230 per dog), core vaccines, heartworm test (If old enough), deworming, and microchip. We partner with VCA Animal Hospitals. With every adoption comes a complimentary First Exam at any participating VCA location within the first 14 days of adoption. Follow-up Care Coverage: VCA provides limited health guarantee coverage (up to $250) for specific minor illnesses (like kennel cough or ear infections) diagnosed during that initial 14-day window. We do not guarantee the breed of any of our dogs or how big they will be when they are fully grown. The breed listed is typically a guess based off of appearance or personality traits. We cannot guarantee that any dog is not mixed with pit. This is a standard part of adopting a dog from rescue. We are a non-profit rescue. Any access revenue made is used to care for animals with additional medical expenditures that would otherwise result in adoptable dogs having to be left behind and euthanized.

Meet Mona, a gorgeous lady with lots of love to give! Mona is a gentle soul who loves to make new people friends.

Story
https://foha.org/pet/panda2026/ Meet Panda ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Hi there! I’m Panda. I recently arrived at FOHA after being found as a stray, and while I might be carrying a few extra pounds, I have more than enough love to make up for it. I am a gentle, sweet soul who is looking for a dedicated partner to help me on my journey toward a healthier life. My ideal home is one where we can trade heavy treats for steady walks and plenty of encouragement. I’m not quite ready for long hikes yet, but I’m a champion at leisurely strolls and would love a family committed to helping me feel my very best. If you have room in your heart and a plan for some healthy habits, I’m ready to be your most loyal companion. HOW AM I WITH DOGS: I am looking for a home where I can be your only pet! HOW AM I WITH CATS: No cats for me, please! HOW AM I WITH KIDS: Unknown – we will do slow introductions to see how things go. I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS: Not listed – still learning! MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: Unsure at this time. THINGS I LIKE: Treats and cuddles, but I will need less treats and more cuddles for a while. THINGS I DISLIKE: Not listed – still learning!

Story
https://foha.org/pet/deebo2025/ ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:   This sweet, snorty guy is the definition of easygoing charm!  Deebo is a silly but often chill cuddle bug who loves soft toys, scritches on his sides, and lounging in the sun like a piglet on vacation. He walks beautifully on leash and does not get distracted by small critters. He just wants to be your best buddy. He’s got a playful side (especially with toys!) but knows how to relax too, he sleeps through the night!—and yes, he corncobs your fingers with affection. HOW AM I WITH DOGS: I like other dogs! I have a cool, calm demeanor when I see other calm dogs around. Dogs with too much energy are a bit much for me as are alpha dogs. HOW AM I WITH CATS: No cats for me. I find them to be too interesting! HOW AM I WITH KIDS: I am best with teenagers and above. I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS: Outside, leave it, gentle, and sometimes 'no.' I am still learning my new name! MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: I do well in crate! I am housebroken! THINGS I LIKE: Car rides! Tug-of-war, my squeaky plushies, tennis balls I can chase, my people, my sleepy time noise machine! I love hot dogs and cheese, and the salmon oil I get for my sensitive skin is so yummy! THINGS I DISLIKE: I don't like my paws or tail touched. I  dislike baths but I will behave for them. FOHA ADOPTION POLICIES AND PROCESS – Click Here! 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.
