Hello, humans. I'm Fritz, a 5-month-old, 20.6-pound puppy with absolutely NO BUSINESS being this adorable and absolutely NO INTENTION of acting like a boring adult anytime soon.
I am currently accepting applications for a forever home, preferably one with a human who understands that puppies require toys, attention, snacks, and a suspicious amount of nonsense on a daily basis.
Am I cute? Obviously.
Am I innocent? That's between me and my lawyer.
Will I make you laugh? Almost certainly.
I'm still a puppy, which means I'm basically a furry teenager with questionable decision-making skills and a bright future in household entertainment.
AND NOW FOR THE BIG NEWS!
My adoption fee is SPONSORED and reduced to just $85!
That includes my distemper/parvo vaccine, rabies vaccine, vet exam, fecal test for parasites, general dewormer, neuter, and microchip before I go home with you.
So basically, you get a lifetime supply of puppy shenanigans for $85, and I'll even come with my important paperwork handled!

Love,

I LOVE other dogs! I get along well with my canine friends and would do especially well in a home with another active, playful dog who can help me burn off some of this puppy energy.
I’m playful! I may have grown up in the shelter, but I haven’t lost my goofy puppy spirit. I’m ready for someone who will give me the chance to experience all the fun things a dog should get to enjoy.
Leash walking? Let’s just say we’re still working on our relationship. I’m learning, and with patience, consistency, and someone willing to teach me, I know I can become a great walking buddy.
The truth is, I’m just a big puppy who has spent way too much of her puppyhood in a shelter. I’m ready to finally learn what it feels like to have a family, a comfy bed, toys, adventures, and someone who chooses me.
And there’s even MORE good news…
MY ADOPTION FEE IS SPONSORED AND REDUCED TO JUST $50!

Adopting a dog in Bon Air

Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
