Story
Hi, my name is Nick! My brothers and I were brought to Finding Forever because our previous owner could not find homes for us on his own. We are super sweet boys, and have been having a TON of fun with our foster mom! Our foster mom is a dog trainer, so we have already been making lots of progress on our basic puppy obedience skills. We are excited to learn even more, so our foster mom is offering a free first session with her to continue our training after we find our forever homes! We are currently FFAR's longest residents, so would really love to find our forever homes soon. Please message Finding Forever if you would be interested in meeting us! Please note that since we are in foster care all meet and greets are by appointment only.

Story
In the midst of Southern Illinois' January ice storm, Finding Forever were contacted by a local animal control in need of assistance. They were very full and had a mom and seven puppies that desperately needed rescue placement. Thanks to the help of some wonderful foster families, Finding Forever were able to take in momma Ginger and her seven beautiful puppies! They are all absolutely thriving and so happy in their foster homes, and just need to find forever families to love and cherish! All of them have been spayed/neutered, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, and are up to date on their vaccinations based upon age/length of time in our care. The puppies' adoption fees are currently set at $250 each. Momma Ginger is estimated to be six years old and weighs thirty pounds. Dad's size/breed is unknown. Please message Finding Forever with any questions, and to work towards setting up a meet and greet! Please note that since all of our dogs are in foster care, all meet and greets are by appointment only.
