Adoption Process:

Applications must be completed in full, partially filled out ones will not be considered. Applications will not be considered if you have not read the dogs bio in full and do not meet the requirements for that specific dog.
Once we receive the completed application we will contact your references. Once approved we will contact you to set up a visit with the dog(s).
****Please do not show up without a scheduled appointment or approved application. All dog viewing is by appointment only as we work other jobs as well.*****
ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS:
-Primary applicants must be 21 or older and provide photo ID upon adoption
-Please read through a dogs entire bio before applying so you know that you fit the specific needs and requirements for that dogs new home,-Dogs living in the home currently that are over 8 months old must be spayed/neutered unless medically unable.-Please do not apply for a dog if you are unable to adopt within a week. We are unable to hold dogs due to our small size. Dogs coming into us are coming from local shelters that are euthanizing for space so holding a dog for an extended period does not allow another dog to be saved.
Animals may not be adopted as a "gift" for someone unless all family members are aware of the adoption and meet the animal before the adoption takes place
Dogs must not be left crated for more than 8 hours.
If you have a current pet, they must be up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered. This includes cats. Dogs must have annual vet exams.If renting, approval from the landlord is required to keep the dog on the premises.If you have a current dog, your pet must meet the new pet before the adoption is finalized to make sure they will be compatible to live together. You will bring your dog to our facility for the meet. We cannot travel to you.If you adopt from Fetch A Friend Rescue and you cannot keep the pet for any reason, you must return the animal to Fetch A Friend Rescue. There is no guarantee that because you apply for the dog that you are going to adopt that dog. We seriously consider all applications but if we should suggest another dog for your home, it is because we truly know these dogs and possibly there is another dog that is a better fit. We strive for as best of a match as possible. Proper placement takes into consideration many things, including size, male/female, activity level, children and ages of the children, fencing or lack of, amount of time dog will spend home alone, and many other considerations. When a dog is posted we may receive up to 20 applications in a matter of hours. You will receive an email if selected to come and meet this dog.

ABOUT ME!: Adorable brindle boy Gus is the sweetest boy who just wants to please his people and play with all of the dogs he can! Poor Gus has been waiting 3 years now for his forever family. He arrived to us when he was just 6 months old and has been waiting ever since. His hold up? He is very much afraid of all men. He has yet to find one that has wanted to be patient and let him approach him. It seems everyone wants an instant connection but Gus does not have that with men. He will approach women and kids with zero hesitation and LOVES them! He would thrive in a female household if one exists out there!
He is great with cats and can live with one no problem! He also does great with small dogs! He would love another dog in the home, especially a female one that he can run and play with!
Gus has been loving his sleepover outings with volunteers and sleeps soundly all night in the bed with his person! He is perfectly content in his crate with his durable toys and does great when left alone.
Gus is housebroken, incredibly loveable, his wiggle butt never stops wiggling! He is a sweet, sensitive soul who will cower when a voice is raised. He is 100% a lover, not a fighter. He is really hoping to find a single women or women that would love him to join their home! Gus just wants stability, routine, belly rubs, kisses, and doggy friends to be happy!
Gus is neutered, heart worm negative, current on all vaccinations, microchipped, and on parasite prevention.

ABOUT ME: Handsome Draco came to us from Rochester animal control after his owner lost their home. Draco is a super fun pup who is eager to learn new things and is highly food motivated to do so! He LOVES playing fetch, going on long hikes and adventures, snuggling in bed with his people and did we mention he loves food! Draco had a female owner and is leery of men when first meeting them. He is never aggressive just shys away and prefers to hang by a woman. He does warm up to them, especially for food! He will need a patient man in the home that will let him come to them on his own terms when he is comfortable. Draco is housebroken, well-mannered in the home, knows his basic commands, and is ready to be someone's loyal companion!
Draco is neutered, current on vaccinations, heart worm negative, dewormed, microchipped, and on parasite prevention.

ABOUT ME: RJ came to us locally from a breeder that had too many dogs and needed to surrender some. He was born in their home and did not receive much as far as socializing or training. He is your typical chocolate lab that is full of energy and needs to continue his training for manners. He will bark at you when he is frustrated, jumps quite a bit and may not be suited for seniors or young kids due to how much he jumps. He is working weekly with our trainer and has learned some basic commands! He is extremely food motivated and willing to learn and full of potential! He will definitely be a project and needs structure and consistency to be his best self. RJ is totally housebroken, never chews up his beds or toys, LOVES to play fetch, and is very snuggly and affectionate once his energy is burned off! He would benefit from a very active owner who will keep him busy and well enriched and exercised. He is a bit too much dogs for cats and will terrify them. He lived with many dogs but does not know how to appropriately play with them or meet them. He will instantly jump on them and smack them incessantly until they run from him. Any other dogs in the home would likely need to be young and tolerate his play style. He will do just fine as an only dog as well!
RJ is neutered, current on vaccinations, heart worm negative, dewormed, microchipped, and on parasite prevention.
