Story
Rich is a super friendly, easy-going guy who we believe to be about 3 years old. He loves all types of toys, but chew toys are definitely his favorite! Rich enjoys sunbathing and to his foster mom's dismay, rolling in dirt. He's out of the destructive puppy phase and great on walks - no pulling or tugging! Rich is crate trained and doesnt have accidents in the house. Rich is currently fostered with one other male dog and has done well with most other dogs at events and meets. He can easily be tested with cats, upon request. Additionally, we know Rich does well with kids. Rich has started professional dog training while in foster care, and his adopters will have the opportunity to continue his training to set him up for success. Rich has completed his vet care and is ready to go to his forever home as soon as he finds his humans! His adoption fee is FULLY SPONSORED ($0). If you're interested in adopting, please submit an application at savedbyfate.org and we'll be in touch ASAP!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.  Carter is a very sweet boy. We believe he may have some hearing impairment, he seems to be able to hear somethings but not everything. Carter loves affection and playing. He seems to get nervous easily or startled likely due to hearing.. He and his brother Duncan  were dumped over a fence and abandoned as small puppies. We are unsure of their exact mix. He does not like to share his food and would need to be fed separately from others. Carter does good with children but is in his teething stage so will need to watch out for toys or small fingers. He does pretty good with going outside but still had a puppy bladder so will need to be taken out not too long after being feed or given water until he learns a routine. Carter  will nibble at dry food but loves canned food and will gobble it up immediately.    He will need a home with a lot of energy, who can help with training him to be the best boy he can be.    Estimated DOB:   10/4/2024 Adoption fee: $250 (6% KY sales tax included)  We would love to hear from you!

Story
Ollie is one of the most easy-going and well-mannered dogs weve ever had in rescue. He is estimated to be about 2 years young and weighs around 50 lb. We think hes a Boxer mix. He has gorgeous yellow and blue eyes! Ollie is fostered with another dog (a female Boxer), who he really enjoys playing with. He seems to have a more submissive temperament and play style. Hes curious about the resident kitties but overall, doesnt care much about them. Although hes completely fine with children, Ollie would do best in a calmer household. He tends to get scared of lots of commotion, like kids screaming when playing. Ollie is housebroken and does fine in a crate. He has pretty good leash manners as well as great recall off-leash. Ollie thrives with routine and a regular schedule. Other things his foster mom thinks hopeful adopters should know: He takes meds like a champ, he likes to talk to his humans but will only bark when appropriate, he snores, he LOVES toys, and he should go to a home with at least one other playful dog and/or a very active human(s) who can keep him busy! Ollie has completed his vet care, and his adoption fee is $250. If you're interested in adopting, please submit an application at savedbyfate.org and we'll be in touch ASAP! A meet with any approved applicant's current pets and entire family will be required prior to starting the 2-week adoption trial period.
