My story
Meet Fonda! Fonda is doing great with potty training. She goes to the door and whines when she needs to go out. She is a very calm and sweet girl. She is very motivated and can sit when told to. She is amazing with kids and does not react at all from getting a tail yanked on or being led around the house by her harness by my son. She likes walks and cuddles. She does great when left in the kennel and doesn’t mind car rides. Overall, her disposition is very laid back and calm, especially for a puppy. This little lady is a fireball! Fonda is very playful and definitely the most confident out of the two pups I'm fostering. Fonda has no trouble playing with my 50lb - one year old pup, setting her own boundaries and telling him exactly how she feels! She loves all the toys and will take the opportunity to make anything in her home a toy as well...so diligent puppy proofing with this one is a must! She has done well with my cat, but he is the most puppy tolerant cat I know. She definitely needs a cat to put her in her place, but I think she would do very well once boundaries are established. Fonda knows sit, and we are working on ""come"" and ""down."" She doesn't have great leash manners but is very smart and will pick up on this easily. We walk frequently, so she is fairly comfortable, just have not been able to work on leash etiquette. Fonda sleeps through the night in her crate, usually getting up around 5-6am to go potty but will quickly settle back into sleep until 9am if the house is quiet. She is doing very well with potty training, if allowed to go out frequently and having puppy pads available for ""emergencies."" Fonda has brought so much joy to our home in the last two weeks and she will be such a happy girl in a forever home...hopefully full of adventure and activities because she was made for this life!This sweet pup and her siblings were found as strays in TX. They were brought into a shelter with hairloss, and itchy skin. The shelter knew we would be able to find these pups forever homes, so they sent us an email. Of course we said these pups could hitch a ride to CO! They have received a clean bill of health, and ready to find forever homes! Interested in this pup? The first step is to fill out the adoption application on our website!! Check out our Instagram and/or Facebook page for info on where we will be hosting adoptions this weekend! We do host adoption events at Petco or Crunch Fitness next door to Petco in Fort Collins almost every Saturday from 10-12:30pm. We also host adoption events almost every Saturday at our clinic, 1721 W Harmony unit 102 Fort Collins Co 80526 10am-2pm! If you would like to place a deposit for a puppy for the first hour of the event please email us if you have an approved application. Puppies without deposits will be available at the event first come, first serve. Please note that not all animals attend the adoption events.Interested in volunteering and/or fostering? Please email us at [email protected] and size disclosure: As a rescue all of our dogs come to us from high-kill shelters or other rescues, so we do not get a lot of background or information on these dogs. We occasionally receive the mother with the puppies, but in most cases both parents are unknown. Because of this we do not know the full breeding of the dogs. We are required to list the dogs based on the breeds provided to us on their records, but they are all mixed breeds as far as we know, and we cannot guarantee the actual breeds of any of these dogs. Since the full breeding of the dogs is unknown we can also only give you an educated guess on the full-grown size of the dogs. All of the current information we have on the dogs is listed in their bio above. More information may be available over email, since a lot of the fosters turn in report cards on how the dog has done in their care. Adoption Process: If you are interested in adopting from us, the first step of our adoption process is to fill out an application online at http://aaanimalrescue.org/adoption_app.html. It takes us up to 24-48 hours to process your application and get back to you, via email. Applications turned in Friday afternoon or Saturday morning will not be seen until the following Monday. We do have applications on site, but are not always able to approve them at that time and many of the dogs will already have holds on them, so we suggest you fill out an application prior to attending a meet/greet. We can place a hold on one dog per approved applicant after a deposit fee has been received, please do not ask to hold a dog if you have not turned in
an application and been approved. If you do not place a hold we cans till schedule a meet/greet, we just cannot guarantee availability of the dog, first serve basis. If you already have an approved application on file, there will just be more paperwork and the adoption fee at the meet/greet, but you will be able to take home the dog/puppy that day! Since we are foster based and not a shelter, our dogs are only available to meet with an appointment scheduled or at an adoption event!
If you have any questions or would like to adopt Fonda, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
