The following dogs have found forever homes!
Casey and Cody
Hi! We are Casey & Cody, 9 year old FCR litter mates. One of our dear owners passed away so we were looking for a new home and wanted to stay together. We have now moved from northern Vermont to Harrisburg PA to our forever home. It was a very long trip but we love to travel so we just laid down and slept most of the way. We now share a home with a 10 year old Beagle, Sami and a 4 year old kitty, Amber and our two new owners, Laurie & Mary. They had another FCR, Andi (who Laurie adopted through FCR rescue in 1999) and Andi lived to be 14 this past year. They take us for walks in our new neighborhood, and we get to play in our backyard too. We also get to run and chase balls in a nearby dog park and they’ve promised to take us to the local doggie pool for our birthday. We've been told by several new friends that we don't look or act our age (not a bad thing, right?). It’s a lot warmer here in central PA but we are adjusting to our new surroundings. We are happy that we have each other though we are still very competitive when it comes to playing - it’s a brother and sister thing!
Tanna
Hi! My name in Montana "Tanna" for short. I am a 7 year old neutered male, up-to-date on all my shots and I am looking for a home. I am a great guy who loves everyone including cats. I walk very well on a leash and love to run around the yard. My dear owner has suffered a stroke and can no longer take care of me. At the moment I am being boarded at a great kennel as my kitty friend and I were left in the house with no heat. We did have someone who came in to feed us but it sure was lonely. The kennel is very nice but I am used to being with my person and to makes matters worse they couldn't find Kitty so I am here all by myself.
Miles
Miles is a young male (a year old on 11/8/09) who was surrendered to an Iowa shelter at 4-5 months of age and remained there until Rescue heard about him. He was in FCRSA foster care for a few months while we found the perfect family for him and his foster families reported that he LOVES kids and is a "people dog extraordinaire"! Miles is now in his forever home in Virginia, happily spending time with his new family and a Flat-Coat brother.
Ben
Hello! My name is Ben, and I am a Flat-Coated Retriever puppy. My foster family thinks that I am about 9-10 months old. I am still at that awkward stage, where my body is larger than my head and feet, and I’m not sure how everything fits together. I weigh about 70 pounds now, and I will probably weigh between 75-80 when I finish growing.
I was in the shelter, but I have been with my foster family for a little over a month, and I am now energetic and friendly. I have put on weight, and I am growing up fast. I have learned to go outside to use the bathroom, to come when called, to walk on lead, to go into a crate, and to sit and wait my turn for biscuits. I like to chew on bones and toys, play with my foster brothers and sister and follow my foster people. I help in the kitchen, I supervise all household chores, and I’m especially good at holding down the floor at naptime.
Ben's foster parents decided they couldn't let him go so he will be staying with them!
Teddy
Here is a picture of Teddy a neutered six year FCR boy returned because his owners can no longer provide for him. The dog has received obedience training and walks beautifully in heel position with a buckled collar. He would make someone who enjoys obedience work a fun partner. Teddy went to Petsmart to see how he would react to other dogs and people. We were happy to see a wagging tail and willingness to interact with friendly canines and their owners.
LuLu
LuLu is an 18 mo. old (DOB 3/18/08) very sweet girl. Her current owner got her last Fall when LuLu's original owner passed away. Current owner reports that Lulu is very eager to please, loves loves loves everybody and will lick anyone who'll let her. LuLu has been exposed to cats, is fine with children, loves going for car rides (especially to the local dog park!), knows basic obedience commands and is housebroken (can be left alone for 8-10 hours at a time).
