Story
Meet Kodi Kodi is a 5-month-old Australian Shepherd looking for the right forever home! ❤️ Kodi was originally surrendered due to concerns about growling and biting, but after spending time evaluating him, we have found that he does not show aggression. He is a young, energetic puppy who simply needs guidance, structure, patience, and continued training — just like many herding breed pups do. He is: ✔️ Current on all vaccines ✔️ Rabies vaccinated ✔️ Smart and eager to learn ✔️ Active and playful ✔️ Ready for a fresh start Australian Shepherds are highly intelligent working dogs that thrive with exercise, mental stimulation, and consistency. Kodi would do best with a family committed to continuing his training and helping him build confidence. A rehoming fee of $200 applies to the right family. If you think Kodi may be a good fit for your family, please message Fur-Ever Paws Dog Rescue, call/text 302-312-5129, or apply to adopt at Fur-everpaws.com May 13, 2026, 9:12 pm

Please contact Darlene at 302-312-5129 (fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.  This dog is located in Newark, DE. Visit us on the web at https://fur-everpaws.com/fur-ever-paws-adoption-application/ to submit an application. Please contact the foster directly at 302-312-5129 (text or call) or via email at fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com Fur Ever Paws Dog Rescue is a small no kill rescue operating in the Delaware/Maryland area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit that rescues and places homeless, neglected or abused dogs from high-kill shelters in the south into loving, responsible committed and permanent homes. We feel our comprehensive adoption process which includes not only taking the time to match the dog to the prospective new owner but helping to educate that owner in responsible dog care, allows us to find the best homes for our little buddies and the best companions for you! Each week we use USDA certified transports to bring dogs from high-kill shelters in the south to our fosters where they all receive the appropriate medical care and are placed in nurturing loving homes while they await placement in their forever homes. Interested in one of our dogs? Great! Now that you've seen them here you'll need to go to our website where you'll find our list of adoptable dogs (updated every week). Then, it's just a simple process of finding a dog you're interested in and filling out an application on our site. Once we receive your application, whoever is fostering that particular dog will contact you and do a short over the phone interview to complete your application process. If everything works out, they will set an appointment with you so come out and "visit" with the dog you're interested in (we want to make sure that not only are you a good fit for the dog but that the dog will fit with you). If everything works out, you'll be able to take rover (or spot, or jax) home with you that very day. A couple of things you should know: We can't hold dogs over the phone or via email. Adoption fees vary based on breed. All of our dogs have been vet checked and dewormed (if possible due to age, additional treatment may be needed). We provide a spay or neuter voucher to all of our adopters. ​ May 13, 2026, 9:12 pm

Story
This friend has just arrived because their owner could no longer keep them. While owners can provide some history on their pets, our medical and behavioral teams will still evaluate them. Dogs that have lived in homes previously typically have some training established, but we cannot guarantee that those behaviors will remain consistent in a new home environment. They are pending interactions with other animals at the shelter until they have been cleared by our vet. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and we will update their bio with more information as we learn. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
Meet Connor, a gentle soul residing in a local shelter. Despite his shy demeanor, Connor`s curiosity shines through as he explores his surroundings with a soft, tentative enthusiasm. He`s known for his calm presence, often found quietly observing the activities around him, always eager to learn and engage at his own pace. Connor would make a wonderful companion for someone who appreciates a quieter, more thoughtful approach to life. His gentle nature and keen curiosity make him the perfect addition to a loving home. Connor qualifies for Pets for Veterans – his adoption fee is waived for any adopter who is a veteran or active member of the armed forces.
