Hey! I’m Walter! I’ve been with Fetch for awhile now, and I’m STILL looking for my forever family. Let me reintroduce myself:   I’m a happy boy who likes to be a part of what’s going on. Whether we’re making dinner, you’re showering, or doing laundry - doesn’t matter to me as long as we’re together. I can supervise any project you got goin on! I am always excited to show you what I have. I am kennel/crate trained and I know to do my business outside! I’m strong, like you can tell I work out and all that. I know how to walk nicely on a leash but sometimes I seriously forget it’s even attached, this nose of mine is soooo powerful it’s crazy. I am special, my foster mom says it all the time. Just to make sure I get enough love and attention, it would be best if I am the only “good boy” in my forever home. I run like a graceful rhino and my white hair is so silky soft you won’t be able to resist loving on me. I have gotten myself into a couple situations and I really want to leave my troubled past behind me and move forward with people who get me. People who know tell me that I need structure and leadership: if you let me be the pack leader, I will take advantage of that situation.   I love training and learning, my foster mom is kick butt cool at it, she has lots more information for you since I am sooo special, so apply and let’s get this party started!   Apply here: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt   Name: Walter   Sex: Male   Breed: Pitbull/Basset Hound mix   Age: 3 years   Weight: 50 lbs   Current on vaccines: Yes   Altered: Yes   Microchipped: Yes   Adoption: 200   Good with Cats: No   Good with other Dogs: Prefers to be the only dog   Good with Kids: Possibly   *Special Requirements: Needs to be the only dog in the home.   *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member. It can also help set up a relationship with greater odds of success integrating your new pet into your family. Anyone who provides proof of completed positive reinforcement training will receive a 100 dollar refund from Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc! If you have questions or are wondering if the class you want to take qualifies please reach out! ♥   Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc is a 501c3 non-profit organization ##946607##

Hey, I’m Raine! And I’m Blossom! Let us re-introduce ourselves, as a pair!! We have decided we just can’t be without each-other.    Raine here, I have a hard time making new canine friends so we need a home where Blossom and I would be the only dogs. Outside of not being good at making new dog friends I’m one of the most relaxed, easy-going gals you’ll ever meet! I love ALL humans. I love snuggles. I’m house trained and just perfect in my crate.    Now my turn! Blossom here, I was feral when the fine people at Fetch took me in! While I know I love ear scratches and playing, I still take some time to warm up to new human friends. Raine really helps me with this since she’s so outgoing! I LOVE to play and when I warm up to you, I’m one of the goofiest gals you’ll find. I am great in my kennel and house trained too! (Just sometimes if I’m meeting someone new or in a meeting place I may stress potty, but that’s only in high stress situations)    We are some of the silliest, funnest gals you’ll meet! I know we’re asking for a lot out of a family but we think we’re worth it. Once we know and trust you, we’re both good off leash and neither of us mind kitties either! If you don’t currently have any other pups and you’re willing to open your home to us, we won’t let you down!    Apply to meet us! Raine will be happy to meet you and let me (Blossom) know if you’re ok peeps for us.    Apply here: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt    Names: Raine and Blossom Ages: 1.5 years & 1 year Weight: 40 lbs & 30 lbs Breed: Bully mix & Shepherd mix Sex: Females Altered: Yes Adoption fee: 400 for pair Good with Cats: Yes Good with Dogs: No other dogs in home, please.  Good with Kids: Yes. (Raine loves kids. Blossom is hesitant of everyone.)    *Special Requirements: Must be adopted together, with no other dogs in home.    *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member. It can also help set up a relationship with greater odds of success integrating your new pet into your family. Anyone who provides proof of completed positive reinforcement training will receive a 50 dollar refund from Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc!

Story
My name is Kate and I'm so happy to be here. I know that probably sounds strange, right? I mean a dog who is happy to be in the shelter? But it's true. I've been in some pretty bad places and have lived a hard life but you're going to help me change all of that. I'm ready to live a life after dog fighting and a life I can be proud of- one full of love, safety, squeak toys and all the snuggles a girl could ask for. I do have some baggage that I'll always carry with me from the life I used to live but I'm hoping that with your help the load won't feel as heavy. I will need to be the only pet in the household and we won't be taking any trips to the dog park or having play dates with your friend's dogs. I'll just be here in my kennel waiting for you to fill out the application!

Hi there, I'm Beau! I'm a handsome pitty that is here at HSMC looking for my forever home! I was brought in as a stray but never got reclaimed, so now I'm looking for the most perfect family. I'm an active guy that would be great in a home with other dogs and I could probably share my new home with a cat too! Come visit me soon!

Hey there, I'm Capone! I'm a fun loving guy that is here at HSMC hoping to find my forever family! I'm a very active dog that would love a family that gets outside alot! I'd love to go hiking, camping and would be a great running buddy! I'd do best in a home with older kids, just because I don't know my own size. I get along well with other dogs and would be a great fit for your home, I'm sure! Come see me soon!

Story
My family adopted Lola last December. Not a Christmas puppy just happened in the same month. However she was suppose to be a hound dog she was very small. The dna testing from her sibling is in the picture. Lola is very good one on one. She does not do well with kids. She needs a stronger authority than I can provide. I don’t want to give her up but there is a fear of one day something could happen. She is only 7 months old total trainable I believe but I can’t do it. So I need someone to take her while she can still learn. Please don’t judge me but I have to have a safe home and I can’t control her.

Story
She-Hulk is my hero and gains are life. I'm just a gym rat looking for my swolemate. I'm a little too intense for other animals but that's fine by me, I prefer to hang solo in my new home anyway. My current favorite workout is running at high speed in rear wheel drive, glutes like this don't happen by accident! I'm 50 pounds of pure strength but I have a softer side as well. After a nice long workout there's nothing better than snuggling on the couch with my person. I would love to share some snacks and dish about Brenda at the office who keeps stealing all the paperclips. If you're looking for a ride or die bestie then apply to meet me!Adoption fee is $225.We do not have open hours for public viewing of our adoptable animals.
