Rescue FAQs

Frolicking Fur Rescue and Sanctuary fosters and then transports rescued pets to their new adoptive homes.

Because all animals come from different experiences, I allow them the time they need to learn to trust, build confidence, and learn how to live in a home environment.

I am a retired firefighter with a fully fenced 2 acre mini farm. Presently, in addition to the pack of sanctuary and rescue dogs, I have a herd of horses (3)/mules (2). a pride of cats (2), and a flock of chickens (14).

My family has always included dogs and cats, but in 2011 I rescued my first equine Taco, a mini mule, and through the years we also welcomed Cookie, Sammy, Smokey, and Whiskey to the farm. Nearing the end of my career in 2018 I started to get involved in dog rescue by being a flight angel from Guadalajara Mexico, fostering, and transporting. In 2023 and 2024 I continued to foster and started to select adopters, transport to "meets", and finish the adoption process for over 125 dogs. This led me to start my own rescue.

Adoption steps

  1. Submit Application
    1. The interested party fills out an application or emails.
  2. Interview
    1. I text or talk with the applicant. I ask what they are looking for and describe my experience with the dog.
  3. Home Check
    1. If they are interested in meeting the dog I go to their house and try to have all parties that will be involved there.
  4. Sign Adoption Contract
    1. If the home check is good I have them sign the contract and write a check. I hold for 30 days for trial adoption.
  5. Sign Adoption Contract
    1. If it doesn't work out I return their check/money and contract, ask a few questions and take the dog back. If it does everything gets filed.

Additional adoption info

If they are interested in starting a trial adoption I have them fill out a contract and write a check or transfer the fee. They have 30 days (or more) to experience their new family member. If it isn't a good fit I give them their money and contract back and pick up the dog. If it is a good fit I file the contract and cash the check.
